Yo Gabba Gabba ROCKS!

My kids LOVE Yo Gabba Gabba and our christmas was loaded up with awesome Gabba swag but here are a few things that didnt make it under our tree and they are impossible to find.  Thanks Amazon!

woohoo only 363 days til christmas

I never get everything done that I intended before christmas strikes...well now I have 363 days to get the jump on christmas!  I enjoy scrapbooking and I have found several sites that are one day deal based for scrapbookers.  peachycheap.com cropchocolate.com and flowerstoflourishes.com if you are a scrapbooker or paper crafter you must bookmark these and check them everyday when you check your e-mail!  you wont be sorry.

branching out...maybe

So i was given the advice that I should hire a few people to help me sew...i love sewing but now that i sorta have a formula for a few key pieces maybe it is time for a little help.  I have been thinking about teaching some classes on different craft areas like crochet, sewing, and paper crafts...but would people really wanna take my classes?  sometimes I feel like I need those blinders that horses wear so I can narrow my focus.  I think I am to easily distracted by glittery things in my periferal vision.  I love glittery things!

the crazies

I am running on crazy right now!  There is no time to do the things I wanna do...to much to sew, crochet, scrapbook, and wrap...oh yeah and I still have a ton of shopping to get done.  Enough complaining...I think I am gonna try to make vests for the boys to wear for Christmas and I will make boo a matching skirt.  I want to get the craft room finished ASAP so I can get the living room put together for Christmas...do you ever really "finish" moving in?  We moved in May and I am still unpacking and moving and rearranging.  I swore I wasn't going to be one of those people that have moving boxes in their house a year after they moved but I totally am that person.  blah!

and then...

The first blog...sorta daunting!  I am cleaning out my craft room.  I was told that I have to much "craft crap" and so I am trying to purge.  I have begun several times but I cant find anything that I dont need to keep.  I need a box full of different types of glues.  I need a gigantic (no for serious, its huge) jar of buttons.  I absolutly need every single ball of yarn and all of the different size crochet and knitting needles to use with the yarn.  I need enough paper to cover the entire planet because every sheet is special!  So what can I possibly get rid of?  What is the solution...get a bigger craft room!
