Early 2008








These are really old, but I really like the shrinky banner pins, and vintage wooden button rings, and loomed flowers I made with yarn from this estate sale. I wish I could craft more. I don't have the time, but more tragic thing is that I stepped on my flower loom, so I can't make flowers anymore.

4th Wednesday : the Celebration

This is what craft night #4 looked like.

The usual crafters Ali, Justin, Julian and myself relocated to Ali's house and invited our friends Caitlin, Andy, Erin, David, Lori and Jeff to celebrate the one month anniversary of craft nights on Wednesdays. As always, I made some silly pins, and there is a picture of one of them. Ali worked on her crocheting, while Julian painted, Justin watercolored, Caitlin and Andy weaved bracelets, David painted patches, and Lori and Erin sat and entertained us. It is always nice to get together with friends, but it was especially nice because we had the craft juices, and plenty of wine of course, flowing through our minds. It was a beautiful night.

Pins Pins Pins!

I am really into pins. Here's the latest one that I made with embroidered cross stitch fabric, the lid for a film canister, pinback, and a little bit of felt for the backing. I like it because you can embroider anything on it! Its thickness makes the pin stand out even more. I really like it. There are few pins I've made in the past that I really adore. These are some of them. They are made out of plastic maps, and miscellaneous lace, sequins, and tape measure. The tape measure one has West Hollywood and surrounding areas, and the heart shaped one has the city I live in on it. I like to support my hood!
