Pacman paper beads

  The following thought process frequently takes place inside my head: Ooh, that thing is really neat. I wonder if I could make something like that.

crafts for me – D20 purse & Tardis earrings

Much of life flips upside down and backwards when moving house.  To remind me of this, two weeks ago I discovered I couldn’t remember where I’d packed any of my nice dress purses. I had a wedding to go to the next afternoon and couldn’t find anything but my dirty, everyday bike bag to hold […]

paper pi earrings for March 14th

Today is Pi Day. It’s Pi Day because of today’s date. Just think about it for a sec. I admit, I’m about as skilled at math as beavers are at tree-planting, but I like a good excuse for some thematic crafting, and I’m an amused fan of all the specially themed days that pop up […]
