I'm trying to get this blog to look a certain way and right now its not working. I'm gonna keep trying though so if it changes a million times, just hang in there. I'll figure it out eventually!

I discovered the show Paranormal State. Apparently there's some kid of Paranormal State marathon on A&E and each episode gets more and more creepy....yet I can't stop watching... and I probably won't stop watching.

In the meantime, I knit:

How to...

Wow! Two posts in one night! This is big stuff.
I read somewhere that people like step-by-step, how to things and since I like to keep the people happy, I present you with:

How to wrap a baby shower gift so that it looks pretty at the last second! (pictures included)

Step 1: Buy a bunch of random baby stuff, some clear plastic wrap stuff, ribbon and tape. A helpful tip when purchasing your random baby stuff is to confirm whether the baby will be a boy or girl so that boys don't get pink stuff and girls don't get blue stuff... not that there's anything wrong with that...

Step 2: Lay down a long piece of plastic wrap. Make sure its long enough to wrap everything up with extra for a decorative "puff" at the top. Begin arranging random baby stuff so that it looks nice. This may take some time.

Step 3: It is not necessary to make EVERY piece of random baby stuff visible...They'll see it when they open it.

Step 4: Once everything is in
place, gather up the plastic stuff and tape up the top and the extra plastic stuff at the sides to keep all the random baby junk inside and in place.

Step 5: Looks good! *thumbs up* BUT WAIT!!! THERE'S MORE!

Step 6: To complete your masterpiece, find yourself some pretty ribbon to match the rest of the random baby stuff and tie a nice little bow. This will cover up the tape you used to hold the whole thing together AND make it look like a real gift basket type thing. And now you're ready for the big party!

Now that you've learned how to wrap baby shower gifts, you can take these skills and wrap many other things! The possibilities are endless.

Join me next time when I show you how to make glue mountains. Fun and decorative all at the same time!

NEW NEW NEW!!!!!

Its a new year, the blog has new colours and I'm making a new post! I took some time off but now I'm back!!

So here's the plan, I have a bunch of canvas, paints and some big ideas. I learned that people don't just want to read about me, which I find hard to believe, but I've decided to give in a little and share the spotlight. In the future, not only will I be posting my works, completed AND in progress, but I will be sharing the interesting things I find on the internets and around.

I hope you're ready, cause I know I am!
