Because it’s funny. My Sweet Boy is all boy. Because it’s funny Because he is all boy, after a few wearings (seriously~like 3 or 4) his jeans end up looking like this: He says that the holes are caused by playing sports, but I wonder if he is secretly doing this: Iron On Patches So off to the sewing section I go to pick up a packet of iron on patches. Normally I get a 4 pack of dark denim but recently a two shade pack accidentally made its way into my cart. I didn’t notice the ... View the Post
Don’t grab the hot end!
Last Friday the weather was glorious here in Phoenix. (For those of you shoveling snow just remember for five months out of the year it is hot enough to singe your eyeballs.) I had reserved a spot in Terri Brush’s beginning soldering class. It was held in a lovely home in Phoenix that even had a pond full of koi. Don’t grab the hot end! Don’t grab the hot end! Roses and vincas were all abloom. The event was hosted by Melrose Vintage and they had set up a few of their delightful wares ... View the Post
The Lightbulb is Fully Lit
On Wednesday I will start a new semester at college. Sadly, one of my four classes was dropped due to lack of enrollment. I am sure that it will in some way become a blessing.

Pick me, pick me! Craft 7
Pick me, pick me! Craft 7. I recently made some festive picks using vintage sheet music. Pick me, pick me! Craft 7 The larger leaf and blossom style ended up on my tree. A few now grace a couple of gift bags. It's funny how ideas come to you. As many of you know I create corsages using new and vintage elements. One of the things I do is snip off bits and pieces of new picks to add onto the corsages. After one such craft session as I was cleaning up I scooped up the pick ... View the Post
