Thanks so much Rakuette  

Here's the stuff I sent StarSix..

mod podge picture frame and candle holders, two bracelets - 1 made from sandalwood beads I got at the folk life festival here in Seattle this past summer, and the other is made from hematite (sp?)  I didn't make the blue one, but threw it in just for fun

Wow ... I recieved my swap box from Edamame already today!!! This is what she sent..

2 potholders with birds, acrylic magnetic coasters that u can put pictures in, a very pretty pouch make from Kimono fabric and a cute felt pin that i already used on a knitted wrap. Thank u for everything.. All was beautiful and i needed potholders. They match my kitchen by the way (^_^)
 

wow, that's so awesome!!

This is my boyfriend's kitten, Delicious (that was the only alternative to the first name he picked out, "Ugly").  He's an art student, and for a project, he wanted to put her in a food costume, at which point we both thought of a hotdog, and I remembered seeing this thread awhile ago:
http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=13773.0

So with a few modifications, we made her costume. 


what...the...crap.. . haha, this is so funny




I added batting to the inside of the pieces to make them puffy, but this decreased the costume's coverage, so if I were doing it again I'd make the individual pieces larger.  And of course, we topped it off with the pickle hat. 

She looks more hot-doggerly when she's walking around and not squishing the costume, but she looked so sad that I didn't want to further break her spirit by making her get up.  Actually, I don't think she minded that much; she's a very permissive cat.  She hasn't tried to take her revenge...yet.

Lol...so my boyfriend and i really like the show Lost and it comes back on for the 2nd season tonight. Since I have to work tongiht he's going to tape it so we an see it together for the first time tomorrow. This is so sweet so I was going to suprise him with a joke cake of John Locke since we like to make fun of him. Well it didn't turn out too good!!! But all the more to laugh at

your cake looks like an alien.  a human flesh colored alien.  hehe.

here's what lespaulguitargurl sent me

a red fuzzy scarf, some food shaped erasers, a bracelet made from coiled colored paper cilps, stickers she made that have some of my favorite bands on them, and an awesome mixed cd.  So awesome

Since I could get delivery confirmation, here's my proof that I shipped it



Fortunately, what I made was very light in weight and could be mail in a small bubble envelope.

I've been contemplating getting a headboard/footboard from ikea.  This is what it looks like:


I would also like to get a canopy of sorts...the kind that you hang from the ceiling.  I've seen them before, I just need to go find one. 

As for the side table, it's a little too short so I think I'm going to either toss it or put it in another room.  I hate having to reach down to turn off my alarm clock and almost fall out of bed

I've thought about adding a small recliner or similiar chair in like the corner or something.  I'm definitely going to invest in a lamp with a frosted shade and a pink lightblub.    I need to find patterns to make pillows, and buy fabric for curtains (after I buy the sewing maching of course) I'm also going to splurge on fancy sheets, but I don't know anything about thread counts, etc. 

Thanks so much for your suggestions!!
