I don't get to wear hats much in the desert. So when it gets a little chilly in cactus town, I like to wear a hat. And let's face it, now that I have decided to embrace the wave that I was born with, that embrace comes with the realization that some days my hair will ...
I have fun painting. But I won't ever get all artsy-fartsy on you and call myself an artiste. :) It's something I enjoy. I love playing with the colors. And I love having captured a moment in time - what I was feeling at the time I painted the piece. So months before Miss T was born, ...
I swear, Etsy has some of the coolest online peeps. The talent is pretty evident in most shops. You just see what people are making and think "wow." But talent isn't the only thing you find. You find people with heart. I was looking at the
I threw a baby shower for my friend B the other week. And while I didn't get as crafty as I would have liked, I did make a couple new things. I made this diaper cake -> (No, I did not make the cute stuffed owls on ...
So I don't hog the hair goodies all to myself. Baby girl has to have some too. And while I think some of the flower headbands out there are ultra cute, I'm not a huge fan of a fabric (or other substance) flower basically ...
I live in the HOT HOT desert. Did I say it's HOT? Well, it is. And yet, I still keep my hair long. Why, you ask? Because about 4 years ago some drug-addled (I swear she musta been on drugs) hair stylist gave me a shullet. That's my term for a cross between a shag cut and a ...

Stationary means standing still; not moving. It's easy to mix up. And in fact, when I look at my shop stats, I see ...
Baby girl and I have had the cold that keeps on giving. You know, giving up lovely coughs and raspy voices (well, it's given me the raspy voice...baby girl doesn't talk yet...she just babbles). But it seems like it's on it's way out. YAY! So in the meantime, I've been of course still working on all ...
I look at trash differently these days. I wonder what I can do to reuse, recycle, upcycle and all that eco-friendly stuff. My current thing? Making flowers. Because flowers are pretty. And why not have flowers that stay in bloom 24/7? So I've been making these light ...
I have a confession to make. My discount lovin', cheapo side of me has always looked at soap and bought whatever I had a coupon for or whatever was on sale. Then Costco came along and sold a box of decent-sized bars at a decent price. Basic soap. And who needs anything more than basic soap, right? ...
