Altered clipboards are fun and easy. They are a very quick, instant gratification project also. Here is one I did for a friend’s daughter.
Start with a regular wooden clipboard from Wal-Mart. Paint the top with an acrylic paint (I used Folk Art brand, but any acrylic paint will do). After the paint is completely dry, [...]

These days, it seems that nearly everyone is on some sort of diet or other. If I go to lunch with friend A, we can’t get Mexican food – too much fat. If I go with friend B, we can’t get Panera Bread – too many carbs. Blah blah blah.
Don’t worry. I am here to [...]

I purchased some Italian marble tiles at Home Depot. Simply cut decorative paper to size (approximately 4×4). Clean the tiles with a damp cloth. Brush a thin [...]

I don’t know about you, but lately I’ve been thinking that the Joys of JELLO have been getting a little stale. Luckily, on a recent trip to the thrift store, I found the solution to my JELLO rut. It’s a lovely little book called “The New Joys of JELLO”. Let me tell you, was I [...]
