What I've been up to.....

Hello all! I know, its been a long time since I have posted. But the trouble is, I really wonder if anyone sees this blog at all. I mean, I am not a very good blogger so its really no surprise there are no readers. But I have done something really that has surprised even me.   You see, at work there a few crafty people with embroidery machines at home, and they have made this oh so cute badge reels that are "monogrammed", they are cloth and they are very cute. I got to thinking, and ordering, the supplies to make some of my own, for all of my co-workers in our department, but to make them out of paper. Well....lets just say after a couple of rounds..... and lots of
product developement, I have finally made some out of paper, they are glazed with glassy glaze and impervious to any fluids they may splash about. The first picture is of the original group with no glaze, and the second picture, though it is hard to tell, is the group that is glazed. It also allows me to sprinkle just the tiniest bit of superfine glitter, you know, the kind that looks like pixie dust, over some of them to give them extra sparkle.  I am going to make some this week with just stamped images instead of letters just to see how fun I can make them.

I am off to shoo the kids to bed, tomorrow is a school day and it is already passed their bedtime~!
