Good Friday Morning! Busy day here working on my weekly Challenge with my friend PJ's Treasures. Have lots going on today, but I will be posting some pics, and how too's later this afternoon. Trying to get caught up on so much, my hubbie has dug is way out of the snow, and will be here tonight. So I need to get things done, and I will add to this later this afternoon! Have a wonderful day...it's Friday! Yay! <3

This is a few pictures of some of my furniture redos!

Good Thursday morning...hoping all is well with you! <3

I have a friend PJ's Treasures we have a weekly Challenge. This past week was her choice to give the Challenge, so it was to make a card holder using empty food boxes. I used 3 potatoe boxes, and a taco shell box. It truley was a fun project, this week was my choice on our Challenge, so we are using a empty Christmas light box, and making a matching mini album. We post these every Tyesday, at 8:00 p.m. I am always amazed at how different our projects are with the almost same items. We have done these type Challenges for over a year, and love it. This year we put a new spin on things, and added a 5 card Challenge at the first of the month with what ever the next Holiday coming up. Also  the purpose for our Challenges this year is to make our Trash to Treasure's items for Gift giving this year, and to be ahead for Christmas, Birthdays, and anything inbetween. I will post next Tuesday our before, and after Challenge.

Today was one of those kinda days, when you are snowed in, and not certain if the snow was ever going to stop. Thankfully it did, and I was somewhat prepared yesterday knowing the storm was coming, that was a good thing. I had full intentions on getting my Crafty On, but that was not going to happen, I am affraid my lack of sleep hindered me from doing anything Crafty.
Tomorrow I will make a better attempt to be more Craft creative. Meanwhile to make this happen I am calling it a early night.
So please check back, tomorrow I will have some Craft posts for you!
Goodnight, and Sweet Dreams! <3

First Day on Blog

Hello...this is the first for me, and as you can tell I really have no idea what I am doing! I will continue to work on this, and hopefully I will improve as I go along.

I have always been a Recycled Crafter. By that I mean I save everything, I see something I can make out of throwaway material. I believe that most all items can have a prettier second life. So if you was to see my Diva Den...meaning Craft Room, you would see why nothing gets thrown away. My family has to check in with me before they throw anything away! LOL Most times I already let them know I want that...so Do Not Throw Away!

My mind never sleeps, but there are day's that my body just can't keep up. In my sleep I dream of Crafts. Sad as this may seem, it's my Life!

I have been watching tons of Tutorials on many ideas..sometimes I need inspiration to make my craft ideas come to life. For example I learned how to make my own Glimmer Mist...who would have ever known it was that easy, and far more cheaper than store bought.

Recipe for Glimmer mist:

Enough Metallic Acrylic Paint to cover the bottom of the spray bottle, and the rest is water.Then shake to mix, and there you have Homemade Glimmer Mist. Approx. .50 cents or less to make. Reuse spray bottles, and the best part is that you can make your own custom colors. Even better wouldn't you say?

Easy enough!

Second thing I learned by playing with bottles...you can use any throw a way pump bottle, I have used old perfume spray bottles, great way to reuse, and the project smells great if you should leave a small bit of the scent in the bottle. That part is a bonus, and a option!

Well this is my one tidbit of info at the moment...I need to get back to working on this Blog...and seeing how I can improve this!
