WEEKEND PROJECT: Pretty covered boxes
A few weeks ago while I was waiting for my camera to charge so I could tackle my giant stack of potential eBay revenue, I decided I was tired of looking at my super trashy kitchen organization. Of course I still don’t have glass in the cabinet doors, but at least I can make what’s…
Read MoreThumbnails! Just a piece of (not so) tasty cake! [UPDATED]
I spent a good part of my weekend trying and trying to get shared links to show something, anything other than the icons in the right column as thumbnails. After countless widget downloads, snippet pasting, and failed cold coding… I finally did it! Well, me and my friend Google Search. And to think all it took…
Read MorePaper bouquet just in time for Spring!
When it comes to keeping the attention of coworkers during boring monthly meetings, I’m not above bribing them with candy and bright colors.

This week’s engaging, family-friendly content was a simple recipe for a sweet Valentine’s Day-themed foodstuff crafty craft. We spent Super Bowl Sunday…
Read MoreHappy birthday, Friend!
I created another Fancy Birthday Card a few days ago and I’ve been patiently waiting to post it. I didn’t get it to my friend in time for her birthday and I didn’t want to spill the beans (the mail doesn’t run on Sundays… a fact I forgot when I was timing this card’s delivery). My…
Read MoreCupcakes for Kelly
A coworker is leaving today. To wish him the best I made cupcakes and told everyone that they can have one but they have go to his office and say a kind farewell to get one… The photos are “outakes” from a quick photoshoot for the college’s website. The resident PR Director and photographer said,…
Read MoreStar Wars Rock Buddies?
This is pretty funny. I was looking for information on the 3D Star Wars release date for my husband when I stumbled on this little gem. Growing up with no cable and hand-me-down sweaters meant lots of cheap crafts and no video games (except for that kickass Atari 2600 my sister bought…. KEYSTONE KAPERS ALL THE WAY!).…
