#NaBloPoMo – I Wish They Still Wrote Letters
Today’s prompt for #NaBloPoMo was difficult for me. Being the technical person that I am, I love living in this century, so there isn’t much I can think of that isn’t made anymore that I wish still was. I would have said Crispy M&Ms, but they brought those back, so I had to come up…
Read More#NaBloPoMo – Future Generations
There are few things in life that are truly important, and they are all completely intangible- things like family and friendship, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t a couple things that I hope people keep making in the future. Wooden Toys I love old fashioned wooden toys. Unfortunately you don’t see them much anymore.…
Read More#NaBloPoMo – Like it was in 3D
Because of my choice in college degrees, I’ve had access to 3D technology for a long time. In college, we used 3D scanners that would scan and collect data from 3d objects and create a digital 3D model that could be manipulated for animation. Of course, now things are going the other way, you can…
Read More#NaBloPoMo – The coolest project I’ve ever seen…
I love going to craft fairs. My mom and I try to go to at least one together every fall. There are always tons of things to see while you’re there; jewelry, wreaths, woodworking, clothes. In recent years we’ve begun to see more and more people bringing in things to sell that obviously aren’t hand…
Read More#NaBloPoMo – Just a touch of love.
I’m a big fan of surrounding myself with things that make me happy. At the office my walls are covered with art prints and reproduction comic book covers. The bright colors are a necessary break from staring at code all day. While at home, I surround myself with things I find a bit more calming.…
Read More#NaBloPoMo – Never make that again.
Today’s prompt for #NaBloPoMo was to talk about a dish I’ve attempted to make that ended in disaster. As soon as I saw this, I knew it needed to be about the time I attempted a seafood casserole. It was the 1st year my husband and I were married, and I was attempting a new…
Read More#NaBloPoMo – Where did my crafty go?
Over the last couple years I have found myself working on more fabric based projects, things like quilts and clothes. There certainly isn’t anything wrong with that, but I sometimes wonder where the rest of my crafty went. The last non-fabric craft project I made was my Raku Monk Wreath. I love how it came…
Read More#NaBloPoMo – Let’s DIY unless you want to DIFM
I love to DIY (do it yourself). I often take a look a quilts on display in magazines and think “I can make that.”Then I sit down with a pencil and some graph paper to figure it out, or come up with my own variation on the design. You may have seen this before on…
Read More#NaBloPoMo Make It
I’m happy to say that I am participating in my first #NaBloPoMo – that stands for “National Blog Posting Month.” The idea is that each day for the entire month of Feburary, I will be writing one post that is generally about this month’s topic: Make. The idea of writing up a post every single…
