Goals, long term and short or however long it takes.

There are quite a few things that I really really want to make in the near future in the hair pretty department. I am going to post here so for one I can have it all in one place and two, maybe just maybe it will hold me accountable, go ahead and ask me if I get anything done, make me do it! I need to do what I can to help with funds around here and me making things with the resources I already have seems to be the best thing I can do right now. There will be no need at all to go buy anything at all, I have tons of supplies for many many projects!
So here is my list, subject to change of course :)
I need to thank a yahoo group that I am on, freehairbows, for providing me with sooooo much information and motivation!

I love to make the beaded bobby pins so I want to improve on them after seeing lots of new to me links.

and how so too totally cool do these all look?! I can't make up my mind which to do next! The fun thing is I need to buy nothing!

(I have more links just can't find them at this second, I will add later)

I am so thankful that people share their talents so openly on the internet. I am really blessed that I can take an idea and make it my own, not trying to sound overly arrogant I just enjoy crafting, make sense? lol Oh I talk myself in a circle...weeeeeeeeee

Know what I was just thinking, I may not be any good at all in my crafts, but I sure do enjoy them!

The Beginning

Ok not exactly THE beginning but the beginning of my new blog. You see I have started 2 other blogs but lost them, yeap I said lost them. I have what one would call mommy brain, I use to have the perfect memory, could remember just about anything from yesterday or twenty years ago, now I am lucky to remember an hour ago, that my friend is why I lost my 2 other blogs ;)
I am starting this new blog in hopes it will keep me on track to doing the things I love most which include but not limited to, many craft projects, which I will expand on with no notice, me wanting to get into painting again, drawing, starting a greeting card line, and my obsession with me proving to myself I CAN and WILL be a famous artist. Ask anyone that knows me well and they will tell you I have been saying that I want to be a famous artist for many many years. I once wanted to be an Art Director in a huge firm in New York but that pipe dream has left. I will settle for being so well known that there is a waiting list for someone to get a piece of work from me. I will dream and I won't wake up from that dream until it comes true. Please join me on my journey...
