In my element.

I love to dye stuff!
It's like therapy for me. I am so glad that I am getting to dye some play silks tonight. I'm also stretching my baking muscles. I promised my son a Wow Wow Wubbzy cake for his birthday, so I am doing a test cake.

Preschool Totes

Silly me! I volunteered to "make" canvas bags for my son's preschool class. They are not allowed to have book bags this year, so they were bringing home their blankets and sheets in tattered paper bags and occasionally, plastic bags. The bags were pre-made, all I had to do was make stencils and paint the names. Not that bad, except for the fact that his teacher had asked for them and I wasn't done so I had to enlist my husband's help. Honestly, I was afraid at first that he would be careless. It turns out that he done better than me! Since I am a sore loser, I say that it's because he occasionally cuts vinyl at work. They turned out pretty good. I discovered that canvas does bleed a tiny bit.
