Farrah Girl, I told you when we met I was going to put you in my pocket and keep you forever, (sorry about the pocket lint) I'm glad you kept me too. And that hair flip is the best! (see video)

To the Windy City Live Family, Producers and Staff, you made me feel so welcome! How amazing to be asked to appear on you show! Wonderful people from the audience asked me for my autograph and picture, I was blown away.

My 1st DIY Crafting Project

DIY Candle Holders
Made these candle holders for my daughter. Really hoped they turned out well..


Paint Pens & Rub On



Practice Swirls

"Rub On" harder than it looks


 
Finished!

I think they are super pretty.

This was more than a notion but not as hard as I thought. My artistic skills are nil so I'm happy with the results. Took a few hours including drying time for paint embellishment. Hope she loves them as much as I love her. Well, probably not.
