Just a BlinkProof Time Flies

Bliss = an hour in the my “studio” with super glue, paint and my new paper cutter. Dreaming up ideas for respurposing discarded items is a lot of fun.

I had a dream last night that Leonardo DiCaprio was yelling at me for cluttering up the garage. So. Wierd. I guess, if just plain old anybody is going to yell at me, it might as well be Leo.  I digress.

Okay, I said I’d include some before and after photos!

Here is a before photo of a paned window that was missing one piece of glass.

Here is the after.

Here is a before of a ledged window piece of wall decor.

Here is the after.

Tonight’s project…

To paint it bright red or powder blue that is the question!!??

Love,

Jess

The Junk Market is only a few days away!

Tiered cake plates are ready to sell.

Wanna do it to?

Gather or purchase plates, vases and candle sticks.

Glue them together with E6000 industrial strength glue.

And there you go!

Add brownie bites and appetizers or seasonal home decor…like a bunch of red Christmas bulbs or Easter eggs.

Love,
Jess

Currently, I’m putting my nose to the grind on two verses from my ‘project passage’

¹⁸ She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.

and

²⁷ She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.

So what am I actually doing?

I am using my resourceful craftiness to create shabby chic junk for a local Junk Market. I have a few before and after posts in the works for all y’all fellow do-it-yourselfers. I hope that all my nights of work will turn a bit of a profit…if not, it sure has been fun dumpster diving, painting, and farting around in the garage.

Nextly, (that is a cool word, yes, grammarians I’m using it), I am sorting through my house brick by brick. er…Paper by paper? maybe, Toy cubby by cubby!? Whatever, you get the idea. I intend to get our family life is ship shape for this verse. More to come on that as well.

Although I am knee deep in “work”, I still find time for goofing off.

Ryan learned how to be the Captain of a boat this past weekend. He loves going fast!

I love going fast too. We’re a good team, he punches the throttle and I look where the heck we are going.

Love,
Jess

Watching movies like Madeline, Veggie Tales and G-Force. Aren’t my little screen-zombies cute?

Grilling several times a week on our new gas grill. Love it!

Collecting “Junktiques” to be a Junk Market vendor in a local show.

Letting Claire and Leah explore their curiosities.

Claire loves dumping out the DVDs.

Leah loves chomping on her biter biscuits.

So, how have you been lately?

Love,

Jess
