Nampa Farmer's Market

Today we did some on site book binding. It got people asking questions.

And it meant I finally got the last nine prepped VHS covers ready to sell!

A Flea in her Ear

Lately I've been preoccupied with making earrings.
Simple. Beaded. Dangley little earrings.
Here are some pictures:







They are available at the Nampa farmer's market and the half dozen other places I'll be this summer.
$5
Yeah.

Adorable.

Filled with resin.

Notebooks galore!!

So you may or may not know that I've been making notebooks from recycled VHS covers. Pretty ba.




I took the VHS cover, mounted it on chipboard for extra stability, bound it with assorted paper, and bam! Awesome.




I made quiet a few.




I also made some out of album covers for a friend's fundraiser.




And even made one using scrapbook paper and a festive geek-tastic sticker.

So today I am watching pretty movies and making more!




Glittery sparrows and flocked ravens.

I can't wait to get people's reactions on them!

What a fun way to take notes/make lists/draw/or write the next great American novel.

The BEST Scrapbook EVER!!!!

Oh man.

This Album changed my life.

I initially bought it at some Thrift Store in Boise.  It had a funny cover, haha, it would make a fun Scrapbook.

No. (Well, yes...but wait, there is more!)

It came with a booklet!  A booklet full of AWESOMENESS!!!!

So I included the Booklet within the scrapbook pages...

Oh man...I kind of wanna keep this...

Here are the Super BA pictures:






 COME ON!!!! This Lady is AWESOME!

Knives. Knives Chau. She's Chinese

And I'm a geek!

Scott Pilgrim vs the World changed my life :)

It gave me proper motivation in a play I was in, and all sorts of fun.

So I thought I was going to go to ComicCon this year in San Diego, so I started thinking about costumes, and Knives was a choice!

So I had to make her EPIC Scarf!



You can't tell from the picture, but the scarf goes all the way to her feet...

So I decided to crochet one for myself:




I'm not nearly as cool as Scott pilgrim's fake high school girlfriend, but now I'm a little bit closer!
