The Adventures of Stinky Sweet:

Sometimes stinky. Sometimes sweet. But it's our life - and it is always good.

ugh.

I can't sleep.
Ugh. Big ugh.
I went to bed earlier when I said I would, I promise.
It is because I haven't been to the gym in so long and my body is literally so tired that it aches.
As I laid there sweating under a cat (she may be small but she produces a lot of body heat!), I had a eureka! moment like my mother.
I'm not sleeping, I might as well get up and do something.
So I did!
Project #1 is done.

I had some scraps of fabric that I love and a couple of canvases that I painted on forever ago, just playing around and I needed some new art in my life.
I just cut out rectangles big enough to cover the canvases and folded it over the edges and stapled it on to the back of the wooden frame.
I took pictures and I will show them to you tomorrow but I am typing on the Mac and it won't load up my pictures at the moment (something I am going to have to fix if this is going to be my photography computer!). For this particular part of the project, I did two diffferent sized canvases and hung the smaller one above the larger one to see how it would look. I really like them and it was free! Made from things I already had laying around! Free art! I have a couple more canvases that were sitting around gathering dust and a drawer full of remnants from HL and scraps from other projects so I will do a few more tomorrow. I hung these two in the dining room/craft area. Tomorrow I will also be buying another one of those 5 drawer plastic organizer things. If the dining room is seriously going to be my craft area, I am going to have to be able to organize it a little better. Shelves and bins or something...work on that tomorrow too.
Emily, you want to come over and organize? It doesn't pay anything...maybe cookies or something.
