Ticking Time

-

Hi Everyone,

Lately my mind has been filled with the presence of time. It can be so capturing and consuming when you think about it. Take a young couple in love. Time feels to revolve around them. It ticks quickly by when they are together, but when they are apart it drifts slowly from one minute to the next. Then a person on deaths door, time feels like it is quickly coming in on them (that’s at least how I would imagine it).

There has been much grief happening in my life recently, I won’t go into it all here, but it continues to leave this longing feeling of ‘what am I really doing with my time.’
A friend on Facebook posted a quote by Toby Mac saying,

“There are three months left in this decade. IN. THIS. DECADE. Take that risk. Give it a try.”
Okay sure.. there’s no longer 3 months left. THERE IS LESS THAN 3 MONTHS! There is still many things I want to complete and establish before the next decade comes. What about you? I always have craft projects stuck in limbo because it feels there is never enough time. Perhaps there is enough time, just not enough motivation, daring spirit, drive, willingness or time management skill?
Let’s side with Toby Mac and find whatever it is that you still want to achieve within this decade and DO IT.



I’ll catch up with you again soon. 
Feel free to leave comments on what you’re going to strive to complete within these next few months.

(My illustrations please feel free to let me know what you think!)

So Many Jars - Part 2

Hi All,  Well, it appears after clearing out some small baby food jars, from the last time I mentioned these. I found another place I had stored some jars and thought what is something different I could do to utilise these jars. Hmm..  Well, turns out I found something indeed, and now I am unsure if I would like to give the set away or keep it myself haha. For this crafty project you will need; ·        3 baby food jars, preferably the same size ·        Hot glue gun + extra glue gun sticks ·        3 alternative materials, I used paddle pop sticks, wooden pegs and cinnamon bark tea ·        Scissors ·        Pen With the required items gathered, this is the how to guide in assembly. Jar 1 – First off I decided to cut the paddle pop sticks into two different lengths. After I decided on the lengt...

Last minute Christmas Gift wrapping

Hi All! IT IS ALMOST CHRISTMAS! I hope you all have finished your Christmas shopping, creating, decorating, crafting, baking and anything else that could fit in that list! For us Christmas is already happening. Seeing some people here and there and on this day and that day. Gifts here, laughter and fun over there. For those of you who are pumping out the last few things, in these last few moments or the last day. Here’s some last-minute gift-wrapping tricks and ideas I’ve got. Hopefully throughout the year you may have collected some cereal boxes. These are great for other crafts too – and not just with kids! (New year’s resolution idea maybe? Keep cereal boxes for future craft and gift-wrapping ideas!) I remove the tabs off the top of the cereal box so there is an opening, then wrap the box up with Christmas Paper. Next for a finishing touch using washi tape around the edges of the opening. Then using a hole puncher, press two holes for each side where you can use a match...

For the ... Warcraft

I am a BIG fan of the Warcraft merchandise. My husband and I play the World of Warcraft games, though haven’t been following the latest expansion with as much detail as the previous games. So, we had been preoccupied with some other games (to Blizzard’s horror) but thankfully Blizzard perked our interest when we heard of the re-release for the original classic World of Warcraft. Also known as “Vanilla WoW”. Once I heard about the re-release my actual response was “what? no way?!” So, this post is for my excitement toward the classic game! I had some many years ago (while, yes, being obsessed with the game) purchased from a seller on Etsy some warcraft photocopy prints made onto fabric. I had kept these over the years unsure of how to use them in a project. But when I heard about the definite release of Classic WoW, a project immediately came to mind. Afterall, one want’s to be comfy during game play, right? Soo… A pillow! I used the four square pictures by sewing them int...
