Pinterest Project

I wrote on my goals for this semester to do two projects that I saw on pinterest. Well, It's February 5, and I've done them both. It's nice to accomplish goals.

This is spray painted toilet paper tubes and then hot glued on a blank white canvas. I learned that toilet paper tubes are really difficult to paint. They soak up a lot of paint. But I am happy to own a hot glue gun, even if it's the cheap $3 one from Wal-Mart.

It makes me happy, and that's all that really matters.

Happy February!

My next project... hmm... What I really need is a sewing machine so I can hem all of my pants.

Getting Crafty

I joined pinterest over Christmas break and saw some craft projects that looked interesting. I don't know why you would look through all the stuff on pinterest and not do anything about it. That's definitely no fun.

So I decided to create my own paint swatch project to recreate "Starry Night" to some degree. It didn't turn out as good as I was hoping. But overall, not a bad effort for my first pinterest project.



Here are the paint swatches.



I had a star hole punch from my scrapbooking days that I used to punch out hundreds of stars from the paint swatches.
