Creative Juices

I made a trip to the local craft store yesterday and bought some supplies so I could make some handmade ornaments for our tree. I got some ideas from Sally's blog (thank you for sharing) and made some Martha Stewart paper globes and pom poms.

Before

After!

I still have to make more, but it's a start. It's very rewarding to make things by hand -- especially things that you know you're going to save over the years. I think I'm also going to make some yarn snowflakes, too. I am obsessed with the pom poms. I need to get some red and yellow-gold yarn for more color variety. If you want to learn how to make pom poms too, here's a link to a tutorial.

I need to call Apple support to see if my warranty will cover the gap that has emerged between my screen and the border that goes around it. BB is the culprit, and now it's difficult to keep the laptop closed. I should really do it today since I'm sure the warranty is due to expire any day now. I am jealous of my brother's new toy (the black one). It's soooo prettyyyyyy. Maybe I need a new computer, too (wink)...

I'll leave with a funny (and washed out -- but still cute!) picture of BB. Georgie and I got a little carried away with the colored adhesive dots...
