Imagine it: you bring your precious new baby home after a couple of days in the hospital, and your man has told you he has decorated the nursery himself!

You walk into the tiny bedroom and find…

(more…)

How much you wanna bet that  a Leprechaun stuck his lucky pot o’ gold in side this here pillow?

With a mug like that I don’t know anyone who’s gonna be going near that there Lad.

No siree.

Might I say, that is a very pronounced chin you have there, bye.

I keep getting confused between Newfenese and speaking like a Leprechaun, they just sound so similar.

Regardless.

No, not irregardless.

That there Leprechaun freaks me out.

I can’t stop staring at the Leprechaun’s teeth. How many are there!?

A wee note:  That there rainbow might be missing a couple colours there, bye.

Kinda looks like a the pot o’ gold let one go.

Poof!

*shakes head* OMG. That’s a bollixed post if there ever was one.

Maybe go have a few green beers beer then come back and read this one? Might improve a little.

Maybe.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Thanks Shanna for sending us this one!

Forget a Christmas wreaths. Here’s some for the whole year ’round!

And if that’s not great enough.

I can keep it up all year! Maybe even use it as a nightlight for the kids.

That outta keep them scared sh*tless at night which means they won’t be getting out of bed – and if they do? It goes on their bedroom wall.

It makes you want to raid your kid’s toy box, doesn’t it? Yes. Yes, it does.

No Barbies in the house? No worries!

I’m making this one from all my kid’s crap.

No kids? No trouble; here’s one for you!

You get a double dose of Teh Crazy.

Raid your local paint store for all their chips and you can create wreaths to match every friggin’ room in the house!

Thanks to Tracy Lee and Kristen!

Today our friends to the south say good-bye to Bush and hello to Change! Fresh! New! Invigorating HOPE!

We Canadians sit idly by, jealous of your comradery, your patriotism, your interest in the fate of your country. (Ask HerBadMother – she’s got a FANTASTIC post about how many of us Canadians feel.)

So Craftastrophe presents an ode to your new President. Congratulations my friends, and here’s to a prosperous four (hopefully eight) year run for Obama.

A shimmering Swarovski Crystal likeness of our President-Elect Barak Obama. Whether or not you voted for him, I think most will agree that “Hope” is in the air. This t-shirt may easily become a collectible.

These are not iron-on transfer crystals. I attach each Swarovski crystal onto the fabric by a hot-fix method. Machine Washing is okay using a delicate cycle & turning inside out. { source }

Oh ya, baby.

Show your support for Barack Obama by sporting one of these adorable wristbands!

In support of the upcoming election, I will donate 80% of the profits directly to the Obama campaign. { source }

How many people at the National Mall are sporting these babies?

I have added our new first family to my multicultural doll family collection. They are made of all natural fabrics, and dressed as they were on the night of the election on November 4th 2008. { source }

A collection of the new First Family – forget Barbie, Ken and their friend Skipper.

This tee is made using spray paint and stencils…. It is coated with screen print extender which allows it to hold up after many washings!    { source }

Dood…try and keep the paint within the stencil on my shirt order please.

I just designed this garter because I’m getting so caught up in this Political season.

I found this wonderful graphic red white and blue fabric in just the right scale for one of my favorite garter styles.

I have made the band in blue and added a blue star for the center embellishment.

This would be a fun garter for the politically active DEMOCRAT bride. It would be fun to wear to a Politcal rally as well.  { source }

I’d wear these on my biceps, and my thighs.

Order now so you can sport your EXTRA AWESOME OBAMA PIN on Election Day! It’ll still be pretty collectible after this historic election!
I only have a few and I’m not making any more after they’ve sold out!

A dear friend of mine asked if I would make her an enameled campaign pin for her man, Barack Obama.

So I set out to make the most excellent campaign button ever! Ok, well maybe it’s not THE most excellent, but I think it comes pretty close! {source}

The most excellent campaign pin? Um….

When I think of mermaids, I think of Madison from Splash, even Ariel from The Little Mermaid; but wall art with an oversized, over embellished mermaid? Not so much.

Can I just say that her pouty pee-pee sucker lips got me a little freaked out.

And her hair? What is with the hair? Are those seams from her grown out weave?

Let’s take a look at the whole picture, shall we?

An homage to mixed media art (read: all the crap this person could find, melded into art a la resin), this mermaid art is described as:

“Swim With Me” 3D mermaid wall art

A beautiful orange and teal green mermaid drifts lazily through shallow waters. A singular gold fish follows her, hoping to discover some secret treasures…

This piece is an original, one of a kind 3D wall hanging. I have hand sculpted the mermaid from polymer clay; her facial features were hand painted with acrylic paints.
Other media includes resin, glass beads, assorted fibers and ribbons, hand made papers, and watch gears. Tail is slightly poseable.(sic)

Dude, check out the freakishly large hand! All the better to stroke the fish with, my dear.

(I have no idea where that came from. Do mermaids even like fish? Ariel likes Flounder, but is that because he’s her buddy, or do they eat fish? Ad if they don’t eat fish, what do mermaids eat?)

(Listen to me – it’s like I think mermaids are real or something.)

(It’s entirely possible I *may* have had too much caffeine today.)
