Woohoo! Record store trip!


Today I went to Georgetown records and totally scored huge! Spent $48.14 and this is what I got: SOOOOOO STOOOOOOOKED!!! I love that record store, it always has something absolutely awesome to find. I can't get out of there without something. Of course, I'm there to buy records so...

Anyway, very excited.

Been screenprintin'

Here are a few prints I've done since I learned how to screenprint. It's quite addictive! I think the process is what keeps me wanting to do it. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to get set up at home so that I don't have to drive across town to work in the space that I now rent to do it. I got plans.

Anyway, these are going to be in reverse chronological order because I think I'm getting better, so I'll put the most recent at the top. It's kind of a struggle to post these because I'm not entirely happy with all of them. I'm doing about 5-10 copies of each print, and most times only satisfied with one or two copies. Each print is a learning experience...sigh. I'm very happy with the roses and the jellyfish. I think I'll try the bike and wheat field/tree again, with a new strategy. Apologies for the poor quality pictures.








Here's a few my bf made. It was so nice to take the class together, and now we're renting the space together too! Helps for motivation, that's for sure.

And I'm back

Well, that was quite the break. I've decided to start blogging again, but mostly just to share my crafts and projects with anyone who might actually check this out. I've taken up some new hobbies and have honed my skills at some that I was already doing. I guess my newest one is sewing, but I'll also be posting pottery, knitting, jewelry, and any other little craft that I like, including screen printing which I'm taking next month. I'll also be sharing funny videos and pictures. Can't leave those out!

So here's the two sewing projects I've done so far this year, a pair of hotpads and a drawstring pouch for my current knitting project!



Sewing is so gratifying! I can't wait to do more.
