Fabric rollers

Quick stle wet hair plait and roll. Should help me get a nice puff with bangs my favorite hair style.

My book bag tag

Made it with the children at chic fil a came out real cute wanted another one but momma raised me better.

A good time was had

Went to the budweiser superfest and had a good time anthony put on a show. I enjoyed jaheim his back up singer had the best routines. 

Yes I have been knitting

I have reached the end of my yarn. Please pray for me that when I drive all the way to ac moore there will be a ball of navy t&q. My bag tag will be ready tomorrow so hopefully I remember to bring my grey bag. The tag is red and black. I show you tomorrow.

How?

How can I rock this tomorrow? I want to leave it braided for a while then take the braids down. Wish this hat was black. Then again gold does go with anything but that works with purses. Again what am I going to do?

Creatively chic in the kitchen

I bought some margarita garlic rub a while back. Decided to make a fancy butter for my baked potato. Can't wait to try it!

A little better

This looks a little better less pick a ninny. I added a part and made the twists smaller. Maybe this will stop the silent stares.

Just about

Just about have this outfit pulled together. I just need my chunky heel. I will get them closer to homecoming. I will be just about ready. 

So cute

I got my earrings. They in a little tiffany box and everything. I see christmas gifts! Did not take that long either. I want to do gift bags like four items per bag. I can jewlry something hand knitted and whatelse I am not sure.

So so

I don't really like it but I spent all day and night doing so this is it for the week. Hopefully it will help get ready faster in the morning. Say la ve (sp)

Life saver

Or should I say shoe saver. When I bought them they fit in the store I may have worn them once after that and they started flipping off my feet. Saw the heel things on you tube (ms chanda) and tried them honey I was (like my momma said) poppin the most!

Food journal

I am a little iffy about the cover but the book overall is great. I only made it 30 pages (a one month book) and you can add inserts later. Same as the last book with a calendar (only one month though) and a place for notes and pics of your progress. 

Loving the creativity

I printed it cut it and went to office depot and had it bound. I put a calendar in it some note pages a place to put your hair regiment and a place for pictures. I love when I get home I am making a ribbon marker to mark your monthly hair routine. Did I mention I love it. Now I may be bias. It has some flwas my cuts are the worse but I am working on it!

Fish washcloth

I made a washcloth! I have many ideas for these washcloths.
Bibs blanket potholders ok just three but that's alot for wash cloths.
I can't really see the patten with this dark yarn. And just like the pattern said two and a half wash cloths from 1 ball of sugar and cream. Two wash cloths for $1.79. Can't beat it and I have a half off coupon I see more washcloths!

Completed somethingelse

I went to ac moore to get another ball of t&q and they had no blue. I got these washcloth pattens and so I bought some cotton. While knitting this washcloth I remembered potholders made with washcloths. Bam! These would make great was potholders you could pull out for each season! Christmas winter easter spring summer thanksgiving. I have washcloths for all of these occasions.  Pattern says you get two washcloths per ball of sugar and cream. What about bibs. Got pattern for baby themed ones too. Bam!

I finally created something

It is not half bad I love the handles

Retraction

This is not a chicken out hair style it is a protective style! 

Tablescape

My first attempt at tablescaping gearing up for the dining room table

Seat cushions

These are you basic 101 seat cushion covers. I got four seat coushion from maxway and covered them. That's it. I need three more cushions for the bench. Now how do I want to set the table? Let me check out eddie ross.

braid out that would not quit!

This was the second day of my braid out. It came out so nice. I was watching jerseystyles on youtube and I like the way she did hers (it looked easy) so I tried it and I loved it. now I have three sytles for my two. Afro, braid out, nylon puff. makeup looks nice too. I need new contacts. I look like my mom.

Stepping out

I am a big girl now no more pencils or markers. Go me. Mind my line is not straight yet but it will get there.

I am so glad

I am so glad I have another cord only 1.09 to think I  was really thinking power mat. Any way now I have one at home and one at work my phone should never die now! Yippee!

Hair accessories

I know I said something about these yesterday but I wasn't able to elaborate. You know I am all about diy so I went to the dollar tree and bought two bunches of flowers and some glue sticks and went to town. Mind you I bought the wrong glue sticks and I could not find my hot glue gun when I got home anyway. Twist ties worked well enough. I loved the way they turned out! And the fact that I had a braid out that wouldn't quit made the accessorices all the better. I am kinda thinking they may be too big for my twa. I am rocking them anyway! I took some real cute pics if I say so myself. Will post those a little later. Now I want to make combs. Some alligator clips would be nice too. The possibilities are endless.

Creatively Chic

Creatively chic presents hair accessories. Ain't they cute. Spruce up your natural!

Too Much

I took 2 co workers some price hall plum ice cream. The other day one of them asked me did I have some more ice cream. He was like you had two jars in the fridge. Wow eat all of your and asked for some more (it wasn't even mines) I guess it was good.

Embrace it

I did not want a sculptured afro I wanted curls or whatever I could get for twist out braid out. I was willing to put the work in. Last night I put a whole bunch of braids in my hair used up time I could have spent with leon on his b day and when I took it down and I got nothing. So I said embrace it. And you know what I have gotten about 4 compliments already. 

Only two laps

I wasn't even going to go but I said why not. I got a mile in. I did two different directions. Left the house and went right (steeper hills) then when I got back to the house I turned around and went back the way I came to see which gave the better workout. I will go right when just walking go left when jogging.

Much better

I still looks like a wish but I have some definition. It still feels dry so I am a work in progress I want healthy soft and definition. Don't give up.

Wash n go

I am feeling my dry hair (yes I have my hands in my head) and I am loving the wavy hair. I want that kind of afro. So I am looking and looking for a wash n go tutorial that I can use. Wish me luck!

Exercise

I did it after knit night but I did it and I am tired. I started my c25k and it was hard even though I have been walking for a couple of days. 

I forgot

Although I chickened out on the afro, I totally forgot that I have enough natural hair to attach a ponytail to! It's the little things. When I get my twists out together watch out there now!

I chickened out

I held my nappy head high I did not cry I made it. But that took alot. Therefore I went to the fall back. Gel and plastic hair. And with a whole bunch of gel my natural hair (in the front) looks good please pray that it looks this good in the morning.

Go me

I did 2 miles this morning in a little over 30 mins and just now I created my own c25k track. Downloaded a pod cast or something and added my music to it. I am so proud of myself!

Still not right

Still dry twist and braids have little definition and they are fuzzy. I think it all about finding the correct products.  I don't think I washed it correctly either I know I did not rinse it with cool water to close the folicle which is probably why it is fuzzy. But I am ok don't feel like crying. 

Sleepy but done

I did little braids all over except the front hope the stuff I put in my hair dries we will see can't wait. But now I am sleepy.

mhomemade frappe

Saw the Mr. Cofee frappe machine and found the recipes for it. Decided to try it myself and it came out great.

Here I go

I am going to take my braids down and let my afro out. Yall pray for me. Here is the plan baking soda wash deep conditioning acv rinse then seal in my moisture and style it. Since my hair has been in braids so long I think baking soda will get it real clean. wi will keep you posted.

Calibre

I am loving it just converted a pattern to text cool beans!

Preader

i have discovered how to take my pdf books and turn them into a format my Preader app can use (txt) I used the program Calbre and it will convert a pdf into what ever you want. So when I get my Ipad I will be good to go. I have started converting the Sookie stackhouse series. can't wait to find more books. My bond magazines are too big. Hey lets try a pattern book. still might be too big with the pic but it is worth a try.

Peach ice cream

Great ice cream found a recipe on the internet next attempt premium recipe from the ice cream maker book.

The short second life of bree tanner

That was great! 

Only 3 dollars

Since I got the new bead it sparked renewed interest in pandora beads. So while on ebay checking out beads I bought 15 murano beads for $3 all with free shipping. I got to stay off of ebay.

Look at you!

My baby bought me this for our anniversary. I was so exciteed one i was not expecting anything or anniversary had come and gone. I wanted this bead too. I am beaming!

Ready for the front

I finally finished the back today and I am ready to start the front. Can't wait to get my lace carriage so I can make another one for christmas.

Life

Look at that I have some veggies growing! I need to put this either in the ground or a much bigger pot. I am proud of myself I usually forget to water my plants. I really atribute the growth to all the rain we have gotten.
