Over the past couple weeks, I’ve been cultivating a lovely little indoor garden of long-stem Piranha Plants. Today I thought I’d let you see a little of what goes into “growing” a long-stem Piranha Plant. They spring up quickly, but they do require a fair bit of development! All those teeth don’t just appear out [...]

Child’s Play charity dinner dress and Piranha Plant bouquet
In just under an hour I’ll be headed to the Child’s Play Charity annual dinner, a fancy-dress event that my friends and I go to every year. It’s become a tradition of mine that every year for this dinner, I make my own dress. And it’s also a personal tradition that every year I swear [...]

fabric scrap flowers – and why my body will be eaten by moths.
I’ve recently been inventing all sorts of little projects to use up my fabric scraps (so that I’ll be allowed to acquire more fabric scraps, of course). I get the feeling that this is a pursuit I’m going to have all the rest of my days, unless I suddenly stop sewing. Y’know, if Hell freezes [...]

cherry blossom thank you cards
I’ve been trying for ages to craft a decent representation of cherry blossoms, since they’re one of my very favourite things. The felt ones I did way back near the beginning of this blog were alright, but I never really managed to put a decent looking cherry blossom tree on a card. Until now. Cherry [...]

one headband for every occasion
I’ve talked before about how headbands are cool – not anywhere near as cool as bowties or fezzes, but they’re still pretty nifty (and we’ll get to bowties and fezzes in later posts, I promise). But as much as I like headbands, I don’t wear them often enough to need a whole army of them [...]

paper plants
All of my houseplants go through a sort of trial by fire. Or trial by neglect, to be more accurate. If they can withstand my general gardening ignorance and sporadic-at-best attention, they get to stay. If not… well in that case there isn’t much of them left anyway, is there? It’s not that I dislike [...]

felt circle flowers
I just looked through all my recent posts and realized that the last 3 (not including the Scaled Wurm bonus post) have been about crafts done with felt. I’m beginning to appear obsessed. In the interest of continuing to be unbalanced, this week’s post is also about a felt craft, but I promise to post a [...]

- Moral of the story is, avoid venues in Central Saanich. WISH WE'D KNOWN THIS IN FEBRUARY. Gah.
- Sounds like they're kind of hard-assed Puritan dicks & don't have a lot better to do, since not much happens in Central Saanich. >_<
- Learning more about our wedding liquor issues. Seems the problem is w/ Central Saanich police, who have different rules from everyone else.
