Wednesday, November 20, 2013. WIPWednesday: Vintage Ribbon projects. I have a ton of really awesome vintage ribbon. A couple years ago an old neighbor gave it to us; she was a secretary in a ribbon factory in the '60s and she'd hung on to it all this time. Isn't it so awesome? The problem I've got is that I'm kind of terrified to use it. It's so special and unique and so I end up hoarding it. I've used it in cardmaking once or twice, but never ever to wrap a gift!

poppyrocket: WIPWednesday: Christmas + Books
http://poppyrocket.blogspot.com/2013/12/wipwednesday-christmas-books.html
Wednesday, December 4, 2013. Between Thanksgiving, my birthday on the 2nd, and a crazy busy week at work I haven't had much time for crafting, but I made time yesterday. I found some reindeer at the local craft store for fifty-nine cents a pop. So of course I grabbed a bunch. I didn't finish this guy because I had to clean up and get ready for work- boo. So far so good though, yeah? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Life as a Thrifter. Jelly Shot Test Kitchen.

poppyrocket: March 2013

Thursday, March 21, 2013. A tisket, a tasket. fake pears in a basket! The other night I sat down to crank out some wine charms but I just wasn't feeling it. I picked up my pliers and tried, but felt so uninspired. I sat for a minute and let my mind wander, and on semi-autopilot I grabbed my size P crochet hook and some jute and started crocheting. Maybe an hour, hour and a half later I had this little basket! Have you ever been in that semi-autopilot state? Brains work in mysterious ways, no? The front o...

Monday, May 27, 2013. YAHOOOO I finally buckled down and finished my light box! I don't know why it took me so long, it was so easy! I took it outside to play today. I used a tutorial I found at Flax and Twine. Not much to look at. especially sitting on top of our cobwebby grill. But it seems to do the trick! I still have a lot to learn about my camera, etc. But this is a huge improvement, and a huge step in the learning process! Here's another set I made after I ran out of the beads above :). It's a Jap...

I'm trying to find projects that use it in ways where it won't be thrown away. I'd love to hear your thoughts on what you would do with ribbon like this!

poppyrocket: January 2014

Wednesday, January 15, 2014. WIPWednesday: New year, new phone, new project! Happy New Years, everyone! Hope all of you had a very merry holiday season. 2014 is going to be a pretty kick-ass year. I can feel it in my bones. My 2013 was. well, it wasn't all bad, but it's definitely a book I am happy to close. I'm looking forward to the blank canvass of 2014 that I can see stretching out ahead of me. The biggest change so far: I have finally joined the twenty-first century and got an iPhone. Yay!

Wednesday, October 31, 2012. I hope your holiday is filled with candy and joy. And ghosts. I have the day off, but no plans. I've got sugar cookie dough chilling in the fridge and plans to score some half-off halloween goodies tomorrow at Target. If you're feeling spooky, check out this silly halloween quiz from Kate Beaton, the witty, history-buff-tastic genius behind Hark, a vagrant. It's a hilarious comic that's mostly about famous figures from history. Tuesday, October 9, 2012. I have a dumbphone, so...
