I made this image for a friend who did a Thanksgiving horse camp. The pony looks so cute and offended by his new tail, I thought I would share with you all as well.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Space!
The final frontier…. oh wait no. Extra space in my craft room, which is infinitely more exciting to me. I turned my storage bins 90 degrees and increased the shelf space by 30% or so. That there is space gold.
And yes, I am a serial crafter. I’m working on it, really. I have plans for stash busters, and I’ve been going through the bins, removing partial projects that I won’t go back and finish. There are some interesting things tucked away in those bins. Things I obviously stuck in there because there was room and I didn’t have to think about what to do with it at the time. Storage is both a boon and a curse. I filled a garbage bag with bits and bobs and each thing that went in there went with the thought “Why in the world did I keep that?!?” And the answer in all cases was that I could.
Wreath part 2
I decided to make some plastic globes with my 3Doodler Create. I’ve had the kit for a year, and I need some more interest on my wreath, so I decided to give it a try (and I’m avoiding cleaning.)
The kit has latex balloons and a clip so you can hold the air in the ballon to make a sphere form, then easily let the air out when the form is mostly complete. Love it. I doodled enough to get the sphere, removed the balloon, added a pick, and closed up the hole. I think they turned out nicely.
The pick on each globe slides easily into the vine wreath and stays well even when the door is opened and closed. I started with the globes arranged relatively evenly around the wreath. Eh.
I rearranged the globes to be clustered around the bottom, but off set. I like this better. And it was easy to rearrange. This is becoming a living art project, as I can’t usually walk by it without adjusting something!
Red cabbage
I picked up a red cabbage at the store and hung it up for my chickens. They were dubious at first (of course, it is a new treat). I pulled off a leaf and they tried a bit, but I was not hopeful.
Apparently the red cabbage went over well, because when I went back out a couple hours later, half the cabbage was gone.
Interesting to note, that much cabbage turns their droppings teal. Huh.
House gecko
She is looking for her house gecko. I just couldn’t leave him down there. She isn’t mad at me because she doesn’t know what I’ve done.
