Oh man, I could officially be the last poster for thing-a-day this year. That’s either highly embarrassing or exciting. A little bit of both. Between being sick and visiting my friend in Chicago, I’ve been far behind with catching up on thing-a-day (I read them ALL and refuse to let me post my catch-up things until I’ve read them all). But, I finally finished reading them all this morning, and so my last few things…

Essentially, I bought this beautiful birdcage at target (I couldn’t resist) when I had come up with the idea to fill it with candles (including a bird one :p) and decorate it with fake flowers to give it a sort of beautiful natural wilderness look. I still am not sure if I’m done with it, I might add another flower at the top, etc… But we’ll see. I like it for now.

took a large part of my morning off, but managed to make a giant clothespin bunny photo holder.  i’ll get it over to the etsy shop by noon today, promise!!  there’s also a sheepie who will make his/her appearance later, too!  these clothespins are great for holding pictures/ photos, recipe cards, paperwork, greeting cards… a sweet addition to any easter basket!

Well, I have finally gotten around to decorating my laptop. I like this. It was relaxing to do and less committal than tattooing it with the laser cutter (like my coworkers keep urging of me).

These are so much fun to do…wood letters decorated with paint, paper, and other embellishments.

These particular letters are heading off to a blog to be be reviewed and featured.  I’m hoping it will bring some sales my way.  Wouldn’t that be cool?

I missed today’s deadline, unfortunately, but I’ll continue to participate despite this infraction. I started folding tiny paper stars and put them into a plain glass ball.

I did start folding about 10:00 (Pacific time) this evening and it took only a couple of minutes per star.

I seem to be a bad judge of time. But will take care tomorrow to get it done within the alloted time.
