green thumb, my ass!
Last weekend I decided to plant an herb garden for my new apartment! (I'm moving July 1st and I simply CANNOT WAIT.) Fresh parsley, basil, mint and cilantro will soon be ingredients in all that I cook. Be jealous. Or don't be and grow your own goddamn herb garden!
My basil plant already started sprouting! Yum!! I bought the jars at Boomerangs for $0.50 each. I'm using the lids for another fantastic project... stay tuned for that post!
Before and After
I found this at GoodWill for $1.00.
Heinous, no?
I really don't know who would want a Happy Birthday bulletin board. Aren't birthdays an annual thing? I feel like bulletin boards are for year round use so WHY on earth would you decorate it for a birthday? I took severe offense to the birthday/diner-esque theme portrayed in the decorative part of this bulletin board and decided it was time for a REDO.
TaDa! My new, official Dog on Lap ideas board. I sanded the wood a bit to give it a softer look, and then I added fabric flowers and other ADORABLE things like BUTTONS. I really love being unemployed. It makes crafting so much easier.
back in action!
WHY HELLO, FRIENDS! How I've missed you so!
Dog on lap had to take a brief hiatus these past few months due to my life completely falling apart. HOWEVER, I've had a lot of free time since I'm recently unemployed and I have been crafting up a storm. Our upstairs has turned into my own little sweatshop. It's rather charming.
Today, I'm taking a trip to the arboretum with Corey and Ellen to take some beautiful shots of the FIVE new aprons I've made (including a mother/daughter set. Are you stoked?! I am. Scoobie is. She's missed you all, her adoring fans.
Stay tuned, kids! Many posts to follow in the next day or so.
