As a paper-crafter, I have about 3,482 pounds of paper scraps. So I figured I could make some Christmas tags with those scraps and my trusty Sizzix. And some of them actually turned out pretty cute. But this … wow. I loved this paper and thought pink glitter polka dots would be so cute on [...]

Craft Fail – Best Little Birdie Bordello In The Midwest.

What we have here is something that I would highly recommend that you not make as a Christmas gift. That is, unless you think you can do a better job than me. Which, given the enormity of this fail, is not entirely out of the realm of possibility.
I like to call it The Best Little [...]

I found an awesome project on Martha Stewarts website. (http://www.marthastewart.com/article/natural-beauties-bath-snowballs) In case you don’t feel like following that link, here is what they were supposed to look like.
Here is what mine looked like.
However, I am ever the optimist; my friends call me Pollyanna. Okay. That wasn’t true. No one has ever called me Pollyanna and [...]
The Ultimate Craft Failure – Marigold Perfume.

Here is another of my craptabulous creations. In case you can’t tell, I was trying to make an altered Scrabble tile in order to make a pendant of it. Please do not expect this to be funny. There is nothing funny about failed decoupage and Diamond Glaze. Nothing at all.
My first attempt involved a picture [...]

It’s time for another Craptabulous Tuesday! This week I bring you … EASTER EGGS!!!! What’s that you say? It’s impossible to screw up Easter eggs? Alas. It’s not. Not even close to being impossible.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock far far away from all crafters and bloggers, then you have seen these silk tie [...]
CrapTABULOUS Tuesday

I know this will surprise you all since I’m so crafty and Martha-y and all that; but sometimes my crafts just don’t turn out all that well. What we have here is a glittered nightmare.
It was supposed to be a Valentine’s Day garland. I do still kind of like the birds though, I wish I [...]
