washi tape twine storage

I'm trying to redo my scrapbook room and one of the projects i've done that was so easy to do was my storage for my washi tape/twine .

it was really easy to make and to this date has been the best way to store these items. all i did was purchase a wooden paper towel holder from walmart like this one:
unscrewed the little side post. 12 inch skewers from the grocery section. a drill and small drill bit. and some form of wood glue i used elmers

on the main wood post i marked 3 spots around the post evenly spaced. then about an inch down. did the same. but spaced in the center of previous marks. like this:

x     x     x

    x     x      x

x     x     x 

   x     x      x

do this all the way down spacing between 1 inch - 1 1/2 between rows
then get your drill and drill holes at a downward angle. drill all yours marks. cut off the pointy end of the skewer leaving the rest the length you want, mine are 8 inches. put a dap of glue on the end and insert into the hole you drilled. Let dry.     done!!




And just a reminder:


the ctmh New cricut cartridge artiste is now on sale!!!

My pink stamper has a new blinkie

Hi everyone my poor blog has been so neglected. Finances have been such that I've had to go get a second job. So not alot of time to play with my toys.
Got the cricut mini from HSN and it didn't work. So back to provocraft for hopefully one that works. But the main reason for posting today is my pink stamper has a new blinkie so I had to post.  Her blog is totally awesome

It's been awhile

It's been a long hard road this year.
Which is y I haven't updated my blog. From being dumped a week before my 50th birthday (the other woman is 20 lol! ) can't compete with that. To a major flare up of my RSD most likely caused by the stress.  But I'm back and gonna try to do it right. Downloaded a app for my android phone to hopefully make things easier.  This is a test run
The project I'm posting today is a one page layout made with cuts from happy haunting, pumpkin carving and elegant edges.

My daughter wanted me to make her and a friend t-shirts for Halloween. These are the cuts I used to burn the yudu screen. So not wanting to waste the cuts I made a layout of them in the shirts I made

Ok going to hit publish. Cross your fingers for me
