More (D)DIY – part 5

 

Waste of Material

Why? Answer me. Didn’t feel like making curtains? This just makes me uncomfortable. Don’t quite know why…

 

 

Dead Barbie Lamp

This could be a passible idea if you use Christmas stuff. Ornaments, holly, mistletoe, etc. But NOT DEAD BARBIES!

 

 

All-seeing Fingernails

AAaaaahhhhhh! NNnnnnooooo! I’d rather have the Barbie lamp…

 

 

Bleach Repair

Not too awful, actually. You’ve already ruined the original dress, so why not? Love the raven print.

 

 

Pool Noodle Sculpture

I’ve seen so many craft ideas using pool noodles. This is amazing. It would look stunning floating in the swimming pool.

 

 

Yarn Bomb Crime

If you have the extra yarn and the time, why not cover tree trunks with granny squares? Looks festive and colorful. But to do this IN YOUR HOME ON THE DINING ROOM CHANDELIER??? I THINK NOT!!!

Random Info About Me

 I didn’t really feel like writing a blog this week, so went to my file of general questions to expound on.

 

Favorite website

Right now it’s Bored Panda. That place has given me so many topics to write about and pictures for memes. It used to be totally free, but now if you really want to explore more topics you have to pay a subscription. No thanks.

 

Favorite planet

In the words of The Tick: Earth! It’s where I keep all my stuff!

 

When I was a kid, who was my favorite relative

Hands down, Aunt LoLita. My mom’s sister. She was so much fun! Lighthearted and a joy to be with.

 

Have I ever been in a physical fight

Scrapping with a sibling doesn’t count. When I was about 8 or 9 I fought the kid next door. His name was Gene and he was about the same age as me. I don’t remember what we were fighting about, but we were really going at it. At one point I accidentally poked my finger in his eye. The feel of his eyeball totally grossed me out and that was the end of the fight. No real hard done to his eye, thankfully.

 

Am I a competitive person

Only in word games. Then watch out – I am ruthless! No holds barred! No prisoners taken! I will spell you under the table and laugh while drinking your tears in a glass goblet!

 

Who taught me how to cook

My grandmother. Grandma and grandpa lived with us and I learned everything I needed to know about running a household.

 

Do I have a good sense of direction

Absolutely not!! I could get lost in my own back yard if it was nighttime and no moon. Pathetic, really.
