For the first time in a LONG time, Erik and I are having some quiet alone time, and by alone I mean from each other. He’s quietly enjoying one of his computer games and I’m crafting. Yes! Crafting! We’ve been getting better at bedtime around here so that means we have more time to spend on ourselves. Over the past week, we’ve been addicted to old episodes of Arrested Development. We had to “acquire” them after hearing such great things about the series from our friends. It is one of the funniest and well written shows I’ve seen in a long time! I love all the characters, but want to slap them all at the same time! I want to watch more, but with every episode, we get closer to the end of the series. How could they cancel such a great show!?!
My craft project right now is painting a necklace holder that is in the shape of a dress form. I bought it at Panduro (Swedish craft store chain) and decided that it needs to be all black. I might add some extras on it, but I’m not sure yet. If I don’t like how that looks, I can always decoupage some nice funky napkins on it. This is the original holder:
The final product will be revealed at a later date (hopefully tomorrow!). It’s not a complicated project, but it’s so nice to finally have paint on my hands again! My plan is to make some necklaces in the near future and hang them on it.
Yes! I’m so glad you’re watching Arrested Development. We love that show. I wish it was longer, but I think they are making a movie.

Always makes me want to start making necklaces and then buying those things to display and sell them LOL
And YAY that you’ve got into Arrested Development! I too am in shock that they could cancel it. We LOVE that show! We’re about a quarter through season 2 I believe.
