First attempt at details!

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 29 Aug 08

I posted a few days ago about my first etched, upcycled glass container, and it was really inspiring! I've created a couple of new containers, and one is my first attempt at details. It's a bit off and the edges are a bit ragged,...

Creative excitement!

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 27 Aug 08

I haven't gotten excited about a listing in awhile, but I had so much fun creating my newest shop addition. I spent all day cutting and scrubbing old wine bottles. This evening I took my Dremel to them and polished the edges and...

ZenniOptical.com anyone?

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 23 Aug 08

Has anyone ever used this site? I've had about five or ten people recommend it to me, and I'm thinking about giving it a try the next time we get our eyes checked. My glasses usually cost about $300/pr and both my sunglasses...

Do you dehydrate?

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 20 Aug 08

I've responded to a couple of discussions and have mentioned food dehydrators. I was a bit shocked that so few people seem to take advantage of these terrific machines, and was curious to see how many people are out there hiding...

Designing your own patterns

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 18 Aug 08

I have all of these ideas of what I'd like to make, but I can never get those thoughts onto paper without quite a struggle. If I manage to get a decent sketch, then comes trying to deconstruct that idea into a pattern. If I get to...

Where's your litter box?

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 13 Aug 08

I was talking to my mom the other day and she mentioned that she thought it was strange that I have the catbox in our laundry room. She says that, except for the one person who had them in the kitchen (ew! ), everyone...

Is it autumn yet??

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 12 Aug 08

This morning, it certainly feels like it! We've had a very mild summer with only a couple of weeks in the upper 90s (40+C), but the past weeks has been beautiful. Around noon it'll peak in the low 90s and drop into the 80s and...

Some days...

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 11 Aug 08

Some days it's just hard for me to find anything to reply to. I'm in a mood to post up a storm today, and I can't really find all that many discussions that interest me! Of course, the days that I'm not too keen on posting, it...

Why do you blog?

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 11 Aug 08

It seems like most people these days have a blog...or two or three or four! I'd like to know why you blog, because it seems like everyone has a different reason. I have two blogs -- one personal that I only share with friends...

Is anyone else on linkreferral?

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 9 Aug 08

I got a tip the other day about joining linkreferral to get more hits on my site. I can't say that it's helped, as far as traffic goes, but I have enjoyed the feedback I've gotten and have enjoyed looking at sites that I wouldn't...

What color is your couch?

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 5 Aug 08

And what do you like or dislike about the color? We have white couches, and they drive me nuts. Things are constantly spilled on them and we're constantly trying to keep them clean. I got an uphoulstery cleaner for my birthday,...

Improvisation in the kitchen

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 3 Aug 08

I cook a lot but I'm unable to drive, so I'm often left to improvise rather than use a recipe because I can't get to the store to get the needed ingredients. The other day, I made muffins and wanted a crumb topping. We didn't...

Seeds!

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 3 Aug 08

It's a busy time of the year for me. I've started collecting seeds from my early bloomers and have been drying, sorting, and packaging them for my etsy shop (fluffnflowers.etsy.com). I really love this time and love the idea that...

Barbecue pizza!

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 1 Aug 08

We did a pizza night a few days ago, and I decided to try something new. I've been curious about the barbecue pizzas, but never had the guts to try one. When we ordered, I found a barbecue pizza on the menu without pineapple (I...

Why do doctors/hospitals send out...

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 24 Jul 08

fake bills? Okay, so they're not fake, but they show how much your procedures cost and how much you'll owe if the insurance company doesn't pay. Every time I get one of these, I end up freaking out and then find the 'this is not a...

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 19 Jul 08

Today, I wanted to pick up some $1 stamps so that I could mail a letter to my friend overseas without plastering the envelope with smaller stamps. Well, we went to the little post office down the road and they're taking out...

Any Tae Bo heroes out there?

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 9 Jul 08

I used to taebo all of the time but stopped doing it. About two weeks ago, I started up again and love it as much as I used to! Actually, I probably love it more, now, because I need the exercise more than I did then....

I got paid!

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 9 Jul 08

I got a little note in my email today saying that I was getting paid. Sure enough, when I logged into my paypal account, it was there! I didn't realize that I'd be earning money when I joined, so it was pretty...

fluffnflowers @fluffnflowers (1594) • United States 29 Jun 08

I'm thinking of getting some of my digital photographs printed, and I was wondering what service everyone uses. I don't drive so it's a rare occasion that I get to a store with a printing kiosk when it's open, so I've been...
