shutterbugKELLY !!! i loved the sock monkeys ! great website/store ! i wanna buy Emma's "Think Pink" Jr. Hoodie !!! ;D Thanks! I'm really excited about the store. It's been up and running for about a week-and-a-half. It's such a great concept. Cafepress handles everything, I just have to upload my designs. I hoping to add more designs, but the weather hasn't been co-operating. I just bought the "Think Pink" journal and mini buttons last night, and my friend bought the mug. I've been thinking about ordering a hoodie, too and my friends thinking about a raglan. If anyone's interested in something, but would like it customized or something changed - just let me know (there's a contact form on the site). I just got about 2,000 business cards, so I'm planning on leaving them all over town today. I thought I'd even leave them in sock monkey books at the local Barnes & Noble  Spread the word about the 3 cheeky little monkeys store!

Would putting together clever Swedish flatpack furniture at breakneck speed be considered a craft? Probably not. I've given a friend a large mirror that I framed with decorative timber skirting as a wedding present. And I've made some home audio system speaker boxes which I've given away and kept for myself. And eventually I'll get around to finishing my ornamental fish pond and water feature. That's about as crafty as I'll get.

I dont know if this counts as 'arts and crafts', but as my boyfriend likes to get me flowers alot, i thought i'd return the thought. I bought a bunch of peacock feathers (for $1 each) and wrapped them in black paper. Its like giving flowers except slighty more masculine  .

^ for some reason I kept reading "Black Pepper" and I couldn't understand why you'd do that.
But now I know I'm both blind and a retard...

I've never done anything this soppy in my entire life. So much for being an 18 year old with drugs, rampant sex and rock and roll to explore. Sigh.

My brother made the exact same thing, except he kept his stars in a Absolut Vodka bottle.
