Major Tom's Photo Shoot





What a great cat this guy is! I don't know if he was born feral, or was dumped by someone, but he receives tons of love (and food!) at our house. He can be rest assured that he no longer has to fend for himself out there!

W To Be Lightning McQueen






W's New idol is Lightning McQueen, and he wanted to be him for Halloween. I was looking online at the LQ costumes, and saw a few that involved a huge cardboard box in the shape of a car that the kid had to strap around their waist. Yeah, for some reason, can't see W strapping a huge contraption like that around his body and being agreeable to wearing it for more than 5 minutes at a time. Not to mention the fact, that he gets to wear his costume to school, and I just can't see him trying to sit around the snack table in a very uncomfortable looking costume. With that being said, I rigged up my own version of a Lightning McQueen costume for this year. W liked it...that's all that matters (and I know he will keep this one on for awhile!)

Frankenstein Has Spaghetti For Lunch




In the process of making the kids' Halloween costumes. I have not posted in awhile because we are so busy coming and going, coming and going, coming and going.......But here are some pics of the costumes for this year!

Decoupaging Is ADDICTIVE!





So I recently got into decoupaging after seeing some really fun paper at AC Moore that was in need of a project. I decided to make the little guy a Mickey Mouse desk for his bedroom, since he is obsessed with him. I actually really enjoy working with paper and Modge Podge... Kindergarten: Here I come!!!
Here are some pics of my 2nd decoupage project...A boring white cabinet gets a face lift!

What's Old Becomes New Again





I haven't been able to post for a few days, because we have just been so busy with W starting pre-school, the baby teething, home improvement projects, etc. etc. This weekend I had some time to spare, so I decided to re-do this old dresser that my parents had gotten me eons ago. I never tried to decoupage furniture before, so I decided to give it a shot. I made a trip to AC Moore, picked out some Mickey Mouse paper, some spray paint, and Modge Podge and went to town! This will be one of Shel's 1st bday gifts for his bedroom!

New Cat Tutus



My cats were very thrilled (yeah, right) to be my models for my latest tutu collar designs. I just had to have one of my black cats, Lee Lee, model the Halloween tutu. Aphrodites is modeling the flowered blue tutu which looks more appropriate for spring/summer.

LOVE This Website!
