I'm finally getting around to posting some of my crafts and creations here (all non-pony currently, but I have some pony stuff on the To Do list). Most of my projects are done in plastic canvas, but there's a few others in the mix.

First up is a house and carry case I made to hold all of my adorable little Puff Puggles (created by Cally)

random small craft kits

plastic canvas tissue caddy

Gringotts piggy banks, made from plastic canvas, designed by me

birds tissue box cover and coasters, in plastic canvas

my greatest project to date - Hogwarts Express in plastic canvas

I was browsing Kijiji and found a lot with Dream Castle and a few ponies. The lister says to make an offer - what would be a fair (but hopefully reasonable for my bank) amount to offer for this?

The description is this:

Very good condition, has all the accessories for the castle and the unicorn has all its accessories too!

Thankies!!

It's coming up quick - next weekend!!! Which (if any) ponies are going this year?
Raijha and I are going the entire weekend I'll be wearing a pony shirt of some kind each day (couldn't afford to do costumes this year, maybe next).

NotAlwaysFriendly is one of the sister-sites to NotAlwaysRight, and browsing through today I found this neat pony story of a collecting in Australia. Wonder if it's anyone here.

I need to pick the knowledgeable brains of the crafty ponies. I'm working on some Plastic Canvas projects, and have seen recommendations to spray them with Scotchgard to protect from stains and getting wet.

I have some gift cards for Michael's, and was wondering if anyone knows if they carry it...or a similar product. Also which section at Michael's would something like that be in? The PC area is pretty small, so it must be somewhere else, if it's there.

thanks!

A Canadian airline - WestJet - pulled a huge Christmas surprise for passengers on 2 flights. This video is awesome (it's a huge promotional thing, but really awesome too).

One thing to keep in mind - they pulled this off (one article I saw said 357 gifts) in just 4 hours.

Fall/cold weather is officially here, which means nice soft fuzzy socks for bedtime.

Let's have some sock fun - how do you wear your socks? What kinds do you like, or do you despise and avoid them at all costs?





In the summer I avoid socks as much as possible - mostly barefoot, light slippers (love slippers), and sandals.

In the cold months - I love my socks! Especially my bed socks - fuzzy, thick, warm, soft. I wear socks all the time in the cold weather.

My only sock quirk - I cannot wear them the right way (except for the odd rare ones), have to be inside out otherwise the seams drive me crazy.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm. Heehee, I just got a song in my head:

Soft sockie,
Warm sockie,
Little ball of fuzz.
Happy Kiwi,
Sleepy Kiwi,
Zzzz, zzzz, zzzz.

I want to hear your experiences with family reunions! Anyone been to one? What's it like?

I'm not talking a small "family backyard BBQ" with close family.... I'm talking a huge "anyone descended from *this guy* 6 generations back" type reunion.

Tonight is the spaghetti dinner/registration night, kicking off 4 days of family reunion. There is going to be a lot of people we've never met. Should be interesting!
