31 Days to Branch Out: Day 31

So, being as that I was out of the house all day today, my craft isn't really relevant at 9:50 after everyone's done Halloweening. But because it's still freakin cool, you can make one and store it for next year!

You can buy one here for twenty bucks. it includes the curtain and the rug. Or you can make it with dollar store curtains and rugs and red paint.

Perhaps a fabric medium for the rug though. Don't want to have to re-warsh your feet!


Anyway, Happy Halloween! Time for NaNoWriMo!!! YAY! See you all in a month.

31 Days to Branch Out: Day 30

Praise be to God what a fantastic service today! Pastor Warren was there and we had a dedication service for M&M!! It was super sweet and my parents were both crying and me and hubby were up there hugging while Pastor Warren prayed over her. I wanted to keep up this wonderful feeling of joy I have in my heart and focus today's wonderful crafty-biz on these Red Letter Words. They are scripture based subway art that I just love!! I can't wait to either buy it or try out my own. I know cutting out the letters from vinyl on my Cricut and then spray painting canvas is one way to do the art. Maybe I'll do it old school and hand draw the letters and paint the canvas or wood. I'm so excited to see this project come to fruition.

31 Days to Branch Out: Day 29

So, I've been really into watching Gossip Girl (Silly I know) and I just watched the Christmas episode!! YAY CHRISTMAS TIME IS NEAR!!! I was so interested in it that I seriously thought about getting the tree out now...but I'm sure my husband will not really go for that till after Thanksgiving.

BUUUT, since I can't get the tree out, I'll go ahead and start working on other decorations!! I found these! Beautiful and green! It's a great thing to do with all those old wine bottles I've got in my fridge from the last wine tasting I went to with my mom.

31 Days to Branch Out: Day 27

Now, I never want to be one to rip off someones hard work and creativity but I'm also an artist who loves a good challenge! I found these and I just HAVE to try it! Especially when the totally awesome dollar flippy floppies come around at Old Navy!! Plus I have three pairs of Yellow Box that no longer fit me around the foot because of my pregnancy and my permanently swollen foot.

31 Days to Branch Out: Day 26

So, I've been on a big "Quite Book" kick. Little did I know they're super popular. I have been wanting to start a church quiet book since our church doesn't have a sunday school currently and before I know it M&M will be too big to nap on my chest during the service. So I googled it! I found these::

I LOOOOVE the butterfly page! I want to have an angel in there somewhere with full of different textures. :-) I can't wait to start this. The best part is you can add in all kinds of mediums onto the pages and totally get away with it!

31 Days to Branch Out: Day 25

So, I have this friend. Her name is Casey. She's pretty much the shit. Yes, thats right, I cussed. She's that awesome...anyway...

Casey has this group on facebook that's also the shit because they cook....a bunch! This month she decided to make it Pumpkin Month (which I love) and was asking for some savory dishes because it's all too easy to find sweet punkin treats.

Well, my dear friend, I have one to contribute!

Rigatoni with Roasted Pumpkin and Goat Cheese

Freakin delish! The leaves are sage--the recipe has steps to roast the pumpkin as well. The whole thing has 4 steps. That's right, 4 steps. The roasting bit takes a little bit of time but it's super easy. So put it on and browse around on Casey's Group Page for some more wonderful ideas!!
