Something happened to the original version of this post so I’m reposting. Sorry if you’re seeing it twice. Previously I showed how to make an LED dog collar in which I used LEDs that I had wire wrapped. Here I will show the steps for making a wire wrapped LED that you could then use…
DetailsMy second attempt at doing anything with my Silhouette was etching some glass. I really wanted monogramed glasses and now I can have them saying anything I want. I’ve got a tutorial in the works so you can see how I did it that I’ll post later this week. Update: I posted the tutorial.
DetailsFor my first Silhouette project, I picked two of the designs that came with the machine. One was a pillow box and the other was this leaf shape. I dropped the leaf shape in the middle of the box and said cut! I cut a rectangle of green to put behind the leaf to highlight…
DetailsFor a housewarming/birthday gift, my friend Lina gave me some blooming tea. I understood the basic idea of it, but only recently had a chance to try it. So much fun! Here’s how it looks (close up below). It starts out as a ball and you just drop it in the hot water and let…

During the party, I wanted a bigger more present menorah than my little one. So I stopped by Cost Plus World Market and picked up these little votive holders. At Costco I found a set of 30 LED candles for $15 (including a whole extra set of batteries). So I put the ones with fake…
DetailsI couldn’t let Minnie be the only fashionable one at the party, so I had a matching apron. Don’t they look nice together?
Try as I might, life gets in the way and I wasn’t able to post every day. But life is good, so here are my catch up posts. 🙂 This is Minnie’s Hannukah outfit. She wore it at the Hannukah party we had (where she was SO well behaved!) and was just the belle of…
