A Creative Leak: Sandpaper & T-shirts
http://creative-leak.blogspot.com/2012/10/sandpaper-t-shirts.html
Friday, October 12, 2012. Thanks to Pinterest, I found a new way to get designs on t-shirts. A few years ago I tried the freezer paper stencil on a t-shirt trick. And it wasn't hard to do, but I never did as many as I promised the girls I would. Finding a design that I liked, that meant something, and that lent itself to stencilling wasn't easy for me. This new way is something I think we can all do:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Perpetual Tourists.Tucson Edition. The Skyhawk and The Warthog.

A Creative Leak: Lunch Bags
http://creative-leak.blogspot.com/2012/10/lunch-bags.html
Saturday, October 13, 2012. Awhile back, I made a few lunch sacks. Julia had been taking her lunch to school in a paper bag which did not lend itself to a cold pack very well. I don't remember her complaining about the cheese stick being soggy or anything, but I didn't feel good about sending her with things I thought should at least be kept cool. So I took a few old canvas shopping bags from World Market, a few zippers, and an old sweatshirt for insulation, and made some sacks.

A Creative Leak: Mock Meet
http://creative-leak.blogspot.com/2012/10/mock-meet.html
Saturday, October 13, 2012. The swim team had a fun meet at practice this week. Julia was excited about it. Holly did not want to compete (a feeling I think she may have partly gotten from being my daughter). And Alan wasn't really sure what was going on. They have all improved a lot since they started swimming. And they all did really well in their heats. Parent volunteers were the timers. I was the only parent to cheer on my swimmers.

A Creative Leak: Buddy
http://creative-leak.blogspot.com/2013/02/buddy.html
Sunday, February 24, 2013. Sean went to the SPCA this morning. He said he was just going to look. He even said we could go back together tomorrow if he found a dog he liked. I said I couldn't really go tomorrow, and I did not think I would not be able to go and just look. But I would have been shocked if he had not come home with a dog. He was scouting out the adoptable dogs on the SPCA website yesterday. And he wanted a puppy. Puppies are so hard to resist. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Creative Leak: Growing Up
http://creative-leak.blogspot.com/2012/11/growing-up.html
Monday, November 5, 2012. Julia lost her last baby tooth over the weekend. It makes me a little sad. I have it in my pocket, waiting I guess for her to ask to send it to the tooth fairy. I don't think she will. And so I wonder if the tooth fairy should come anyway. With a fantastic glittery note. And I guess that could mean either she realizes it is only a toy, or it could signal that she has no doubt that it will be fixed and quickly and there's no sense getting worked up about it. Only the whole incide...

A Creative Leak: Knitting Bunnies
http://creative-leak.blogspot.com/2012/11/knitting-bunnies.html
Thursday, November 29, 2012. Over Thanksgiving I made a couple of little bunnies - constructed off a rectangle, so nothing fancy - for Holly's friends who saw one I'd made as a birthday gift for another of her friends. Then yesterday Holly came home with a list of 13 "orders" for bunnies from other classmates. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Creative Leak: Next project?
http://creative-leak.blogspot.com/2012/10/next-project.html
Wednesday, October 17, 2012. I didn't sew anything today. The sewing machine is still sitting on the table though. And there is still a basket of fabric sitting near the machine on the table so I can turn it into something fabulous when I get the inspiration. I wish the inspiration would come. I can do that! I do like the thrill of seeing my stash pile go down. Good night. :). October 19, 2012 at 4:57 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Perpetual Tourists.Tucson Edition.
