Craft Mania

Over the past few days I've been a little worried that I have been manic. I have been crafting like crazy, doing several projects at once. In the middle of all that I dyed my hair from blond to brown. What?! Don't worry, though. This isn't mania. I'm just finally feeling inspired and putting a lot of restless energy to good use. I had been in such a rut in my studio lately and it seemed like the only alternative was to watch a lot of tv and get really down. Then I came across Craftgawker. If you've never heard of it check it out. It's is an amazing resource of crafts and tutorials collected from many amazing blogs. So, long story short (or maybe short story long?) I have been trying out new things and have been on an absolute roll. And the brown hair? Just thought a physical change would be nice for the "new me."

Here's me:

And here's what I've made.

Found this garland tutorial at prudent baby via bridal musings. I've made two so far. Here's one.

And then I made some tissue paper pom poms. Tutorial found here at the Martha Stewart site.

I have made more things and have more things in the works but I'll save it for a different post. I don't want to overload you like I overloaded myself. Today is still early and there are more crafts to make! Happy Sunday!
