Trying Something New

This post could also be subtitled Michelle does not need a new hobby. But she has one. When was the last time you learned a new skill? I have been a maker/DIYer/tinkerer for as long as I can remember. Over the years I have gravitated towards certain mediums and gotten pretty good at them (paper, fabric and ink). I have dabbled in a few things that frustrated me because it didn't come easy (sculpture, jewelry making, ahem tennis ) Guys I get OFFENDED when I start something and I am not naturally good at it. It's a patience thing. A confidence thing. Not necessarily a good thing. Can you relate? Learning a new skill can be so rewarding!

Weekend in NYC

Last month one of my besties, Leah and I took off for a long weekend trip to NYC. We have three goals: see some theatre, see a friend, see basically the whole city. I thought I might share a few of my favorite places in NYC plus a few tips along the way: #1: Miss Leah in our pimped out limo . We might have rode into the city in style.

We soaked it up, and....tipped a little extra {BONUS TIP}: Get a number for a good car service before you get to the city. They cost about the same as a cab, but they come right to you! Definitely from the airport to the hotel, but even from your hotel to sightseeing it can be a great value! 2. Go to Times Square at night. Seriously, there's nothing like it. The lights, the people watching, it's all the NYC stereotypes rolled into one. {BONUS TIP Do not eat at any restaurant in Times Square. I'm sure...

Lawnscaping Winter Blog Hop- Holiday Song Gift Tags

Ho-Ho-Ho friends! Thanks for hopping by for my stop on the Lawnscaping Holiday Blog Hop ! This is my little corner of the internet and I hope you decide to come back sometime. I blog about: DIY's , paper crafts , and everyday life . I recently started blogging about my adventures in Bathroom Remodeling . Today I want to share a set of tags I made to use on gifts for Christmas. Truth be told, I tend to buy stamps that I think are versatile as instead of occasion specific. I don't have many Christmas or winter themed stamps. However, I've this idea stewing to make gift tags with song lyrics on them, and I pulled out a couple of my favorite LF stamps to make it happen! Supplies: American Crafts cardstock , stamps: Claire's ABC and Blissful Botanicals , Black Staz On ink , Martha Stewart micorbbead glitter , Ranger Glossy Accents , various markers from my stash, sequins from my stash. I used the flower and vine from Blissful Botanicals and colored ...
