Y’know those cartoons where some hapless mom opens their kid’s bedroom closet and is engulfed by an avalanche toys, clothes, dirty dishes, rabid dust bunnies and heaven knows what else? Well that’s becoming the state of my crafting corner. The biggest offender is my fabric pile, which I never seem to reduce quite enough, partially […]

paper party hats
It came to my attention recently that there’s a tradition amongst Etsy sellers of making their boyfriends pose for photos in silly hats. Which wasn’t actually why I chose to make paper party hats this week, but it’s a nice little bonus. March, it seems, is the beginning of birthday season. Our friend Matt […]

zippered t-shirt sleeves and front
Two weeks from now, on March 20, my friends at LoadingReadyRun are holding their 7th anniversary screening at the Victoria Event Centre. It just so happens that on that same day, I will be celebrating my birthday. In anticipation of these two simultaneous events, I present you with a new t-shirt modification method, altering a […]

Mystery Mail in the Month of March
As regular readers will know, several weeks ago my friends and I received a box full of Magic cards, a gift from a [then] anonymous sender. It was a great surprise, and turned an average, boring Friday into a day full of mystery and delight. Ok, that sentence was a bit over the top, but […]

page corner bookmarks
This project comes to you at the request of Twitterer @GCcapitalM. I used to believe that a person could never have too many books, or too many bookmarks. Then I moved into an apartment slightly larger than some people’s closets (and much smaller than many people’s garages) and all these beliefs got turned on their […]
