My 3 Monsters: Busy, Busy!

Busy, Busy!

I'm becoming very self-aware in my old age.  Like figuring out that I cope with stress in one of two ways:  by sleeping for hours on end (to avoid dealing with said stress) or by doing "projects" (to avoid dealing with said stress).  As dumb as this sounds, I never realized that before.  But you have a lot of time to think about stuff when you're tearing up a room's worth of carpet and banging out all the tack strips and base boards.  And drawing chalk lines on the walls to see if you would like the faux wainscot technique you are considering.  Also, I made these bracelets.  Cute, huh?  I find that I collect "things" that I like, without ever having a plan for how I'm going to use them.  I scour the dollar ribbon baskets and the clearance bead racks and I hoard.  Because some things are just too pretty to live without.  So I was super excited to find this tutorial at Tatertots and Jello.  So easy and, AND, I already had all the stuff.  But if you're not a craft hoarder like me, those cool little jewelry pendanty things are on sale 2 for $5 at Michaels this week.  And lots are on clearance right now for $1.99.  And yes, those bracelets are sitting on my newly barren floor in the photo.  So excited!
