hoppy easter!

I sooooo need to make some of these as easter presents for all the little baby bunnies in my life!

This is an oh-so-adorable stuffed bunny courtesy of Hillary a.k.a. wee wonderfuls!

She even gives a sweet craft tutorial on how to make a bunny of our own here!

Be sure to post a photo of your finished project on the weebunnies Flickr group...

I will post photos of mine when I am done!

Good morning Detroit!

Coming Soon

A very handy dandy little device helped to make these flowers. These may be used for an upcoming Sampler. (Probably won't be until May.)


Also here's some photos of just a few of the new creations that will soon be added to either the Etsy shop OR in make-out goods shop.

#1 Off-White enamel heart with wood discs on sterling fish hook earring backing. (Necklace with same hearts and disc also coming soon).


#2 Wavy enamel discs on sterling chain and sterling fish hook earring back.



TTFN!

Underwhelmed to the 10th power

As for Project Runway...

Everything they showed leading up to the final 3 runway shows was basically all fluff. No real drama for your mama like last year (remember Kara Saun & her damn shoes battling with Wendy right up to the end.) Well there was that moment where Daniel V. lost his bags. But come on that was hardly exciting. P.S. I don't think the bags were crafty but they were gross.

First, I loved this dress on Heidi, it's adorable. Even though I ain't the biggest Heidi fan. Who is? The b*tch was on the red carpet like 2 days after giving birth to Seal Jr.


Chloe we need to talk. I loved her through the WHOLE season. But the final collection was DREADFUL. I was literally ill and wanted to leave the room when it was her turn to show her collection. I was shocked by the judges reaction to Chloe's collection & she won???

Dress #1 Hellooooo mother of the bride. It actually looks better in these photos. It's more of a DUSTY ROSE (blechhh) color. Dress #2 Is that a map of the Hawaiian Islands on your dress? How nice.



The one who should have had the chance to REALLY show her collection on the season finale was Kara Janx! The looks from her collection ARE versatile just like those darn judges wanted. Some casual, some dressy, some colorful, and they are creative & fabulous. I just wonder if the judges were kicking themselves. I would love to hear Tim Gunn's take on her collection.




However, I know what those darn judges would have said if Kara was in the final 3 with this collection. Her looks remind them of Mr. Jay McCarrol's final collection. But I don't care, it was was real to me and so terrific. (Dress #1 is hers, dress #2 is Jay's).



I was also pretty shocked by Santino's work. I could see where the judges were coming from in regard to cohesiveness. However, after all the commotion throughout the season, Nina seemed like she was really into his collection. I don't think it was fair that what she criticized him about the WHOLE season now she was going backwards and saying she was dissappointed that he was missing his Santino-ness in his final show. Make up your damn mind NINA GARCIA!

In other news...

everybody's working for the weekend

Hi-Dee-Ho...

Last night went to an art opening for my pal Mikey. His show was titled "The Happiness I Seek". His work is lovable. Can art work be lovable? Me thinks it can. I was ready to cuddle parts of his show.


The man in green chugging a beer is Mr. Mike-a-licious. The 2 dudes sitting with their backs to the window...well, they were there for the free booze. Oh, how I wish I were joking. They were falling and getting tangled into the work and asking questions like, "is this part of it??"





Today I need to figure out what make-out goods will be donating for a raffle that will help raise money for the Girl's Fight Back! charity event next Friday night. An old coworker of mine is friends with the lady who runs the charity. I have some items already made from my most recent craft fair that I haven't posted in the shop but I wouldn't mind making something fresh, hip, and with it. Since there will be lots of ladies under the age of 30 there.
