post #6 for my 365 SKETCH project
i drew a bookmark that has been squished as a result of his line of work.
I then tried to laminate this with some clear packing tape. bad idea! i have so many bubbles as a result!
I also added a ribbon to him.

post #37 One Pill Too Many
post #37 for my Make Something Cool Everyday project.
I had planned this photo for some time now. It is a continuation of my DEATH BY YARN series
Today I crocheted a bottle that reads "take one pill" along with cap, 5 blue and red pills, and cut a piece of blue felt to represent water escaping a dropped cup.
i had taken many many photos and couldn't decide which i liked the best. I chose this one because of the low lighting. I think that suicide is a dark setting so the light should represent that. also the lamp was knocked to the ground too lol

post#36/365 HAND WITHIN A HAND
post #36/365 for my MAKE SOMETHING COOL EVERYDAY project
I don't know what my obsession over hands is really about. Maybe because I live in constant fear of losing mine? No hands= a life I would hate? Or maybe since they are so hard to draw I am trying to overcome some obstacle? Or maybe I'm just running out of original ideas??
hmm...

post# 33 Ear Swabs
post #33 for my MAKE SOMETHING COOL EVERYDAY project
materials used:
cotton swabs
polymer clay
Okay I'm not a sculptor at all but I didn't have much trouble with making these tiny ears. haha maybe because I went into this project expecting these to be a complete failure. expect the worse and when it's not completely bad, be pleasantly surprised??

okay time for a heart to heart
Well I know that I've been very informal on this blog and I apologize. This whole post is going to run together but if I give it any more thought I will just end up erasing this whole post...
Okay well I have finished one full month of my MAKE SOMETHING COOL EVERYDAY posts and that I can say proudly =) I find that my mind becomes overwhelmed with thoughts constantly and I can finally channel all my built up thoughts into something coherent. I find that at work I can completely zone out and become completely lost in my thoughts. Nothing too exciting, usually just depressing stuff. The fact that I can successfully focus elsewhere has become a HUGE relief for me!! I find that I have become less angry this past month and I can actually walk with my head held up. I have always doubted anything that I've done creatively. very very rarely will i impress myself. very rarely! But i feel that i have given all my efforts into my flickr project and the fact that other people can say nice things about them makes me feel...good!
I've tried explaining the purpose of this project to my friends and co-workers and i get the impression that it is met with confusion. I've tried to explain that it's sole purpose is to force me to become creative. i am lazy. i admit that completely. But this past month has pushed me further since there is a daily deadline. I feel less afraid to share what's in my head. I'm tired of living in a box. i know that now.
i finally took the plunge and went pro today on flickr. yikes! me! the person who usually has 3 dollars(if that!) to her name spent $25 for photo storage!! Remember earlier when I fought this route? well I went forward smiling =) I am happy. finally. And all it took was me to make it happen! whew!
here is a freaky picture of my dog for laughs =) I know my iphone camera sucks. I plan on purchasing a real snazzy camera by next month. it's going to break my wallet but it'll be a worthy investment!
