I made another craft recently that I needed the comic for. Instead of wasting it (because I got enough grief from the guys I worked with for cutting up a comic book) I decided I had to use it for something, so I made myself some new coasters.

I just made this. I had some left over spray paint and some thin press board just laying around and felt like getting my craft on. I hope you like it.

The second photo is kinda crooked, the piece itself is level.

About 8 months ago a friend of mine was pregnant her first. As a a babyshower gift I made her a robot mobile. I almost kept it for myself.

Awhile ago I made a character from a Canadian children's show named "Toopy and Binoo". Binoo was a huge hit foe everyoneI made him for. I was finally asked to make the other character. And so here they both are! Adorably cute and loved by the receivers.

Toopy and Binoo


Just Toopy

I wish I could take credit for the idea. But They turned out just as I had hoped. And on the cheap. They aren't hard and offer a fun way to open up any room.

I was lucky enough that a purchase came with this adorable tissue paper. I grabbed some tiles and got out the mod podge and created these.

So I just bought a house and the walls are dreadful. Full of brown brown and peach brown. Blech. I am not a fan of non-colour colours. So before I paint them red and yellow, I decided to do a mural.
I've always been a fan of Pop art and comic book art. With that in mind I set out to google and ended up with Lichtenstein's explosion. Got out my trusty overhead and got to work.

The process

I have a pretty terrible memory. So I recently picked up some chalkboard paint so I can make one big reminder board. But I had tons of the stuff left over. I picked up this little food tray at the dollar store and decided to make a dedicated grocery list chalkboard. Turned out pretty cute.

I just moved into my first house and am itching to paint the walls. While I'm waiting on that particular project I decided to do something that would spruce up the tan walls I inherited. The siding I have in my living room reminds me of a white picket fence so I decided to make some flowers. The flowers are flattened toilet paper rolls that cut into pieces with a button center. I hope this is the correct place to put this.

This was easy and only cost a dollar for the mug. But funny as all get out and will probably be a regular fixture in gift baskets.
