One Thing Leads To Another

December 5, 2011

The Fixx said it back in 1983. And now it’s my turn. As I run around my office in an attempt to get everything ready for the holidays I stumbled upon this picture. I’m speaking of the one posted above, cute isn’t he? What I actually found was a stack of these photos all the same size and image. I had originally attached them to cardstock for a greeting card but later found that I had so many of that card already. So, what can I create with them? They have been sitting on the “to-do” pile for quite some time. To throw them away just isn’t an option.

I looked at them everyday for a couple of weeks. How could I recycle these into something creative? My muse was clearly sitting on my shoulder as I looked at them. I believe she was almost laughing at me. Then it happened. A childhood *memory* flashed before my eyes. Then I found myself laughing as well. The inspiration started to flow like someone tipped over a 10 gallon bucket of water. And it continues to flow. They will make an adorable Christmas gift and then they will find their place in one of my Etsy shops.

Have you ever had one idea which then leads to another and another….? Funny how things work. So, as I was writing this post the group, The Fixx, came in mind. Go ahead and click their link above and enjoy the video.

Oh, as for what I’m creating. You’ll just have to wait and see. I did give you a couple of clues. Anyone have a guess?

Have a great day!

Seriously, Ass Hooks?

October 18, 2011

Message from the Dog:

Hi, my name is House. I’m the cutest dog in the world. Anyway, I’ve hacked into my mom’s blog to show you something. Look at the picture that I loaded. Can you believe this? How could she put such a thing up on the wall for everyone to see? I tried to take them down, but I can’t reach them. I looked at the receipt and it actually said ass hooks. Are you kidding me? How embarrassing.

Oh well, I guess I’ll allow them to stay due to the fact they hold our walking collars. It still bothers me how when my parents say, “Let’s go for a Walk!” that I automatically go to…..the ass hooks!

Merry Christmas

December 25, 2010

The day is finally here. Not only is the day to spend with family, but a day of rest. Or for me, that means “catch up” day. After visiting with my family I will be working (yes working) in my office getting started on all the goals that I want to accomplish for the upcoming new year. I’ve got some new writing assignments that I’m working on for Handmade Spark. And I’m preparing for a grand opening of my new storefront on Meylah.com.

You can see from the picture above that House thought it was necessary to be in the photo. Every year we wrap our doors. A bit of red paper, or you can use a tablecloth, some ribbon, and a bow = a bit of holiday cheer. Miniture candy canes look nice also, but with three dogs they may not last. Although, it would make their breath smell a bit better, eh? The possibilities are endless on how you can decorate.

We also wrapped our front door. Funny how the light shines in the center of it.

Well, everyone enjoy their day! The boys woke up to some presents in their stockings. So now we have several new toys laying around the house. More to step around, but they love it!
