For those of you who follow me using Google Reader, I'm sure you've learned that Google Reader is shutting down. So to make sure you don't lose your great subscriptions...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/alexkantrowitz/2013/03/14/five-great-rss-reader-alternatives-to-google-reader/" target="_blank">link</a> to a Forbes article with 5 great alternatives to Google Reader.</div>

I got a chance to sit and paint a little bit yesterday, a much needed break from my computer slaved days writing copy for my marketing job. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm making a series of dinosaur paintings ad creating a mini prehistoric gallery at my place. Here's one of my derpy dinosaurs I painted just yesterday. What do you think? </div>

My problem is that it takes me literally 4 hours when I try to do nail art on myself and often ends in a mess of cotton balls and tears.</div>

Do you have any tips to doing nail art successfully?</div>

Awhile back Mr. Rockit got a few vintage paint by numbers for me to play with, but I hadn't gotten around to painting them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One slow Saturday a couple weeks ago I broke them out and started to work with it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As the paint is probably over 20 years old, it was all dry and brittle and unusable, but I used the colors as guides and created my own with acrylic paint.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MJgtPaYELaQ/UPiBdH5iK4I/AAAAAAAAArQ/YbJ6e6AnZsw/s1600/IMG_20130107_110413.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MJgtPaYELaQ/UPiBdH5iK4I/AAAAAAAAArQ/YbJ6e6AnZsw/s320/IMG_20130107_110413.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

Well I'm here to say hello, I'm back, and I mean to upkeep this blog once again. <br />

Right now I'm enjoying a lovely holiday break in Michigan, and then it's back to San Francisco for me.<br />
<br />
Stay tuned for ACTUAL crafty type updates. What? No way. Yes.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Annd my first project back is a Hello Kitty headband.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Big surprise!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I came across this adorbz costume but it's like $50 and I figured I'd try making it.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_o5RdxgrIEA/TptCBK_M-OI/AAAAAAAAAnE/7bxopjWGDos/s1600/lens13715451_1287083856hello-kitty-costume.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_o5RdxgrIEA/TptCBK_M-OI/AAAAAAAAAnE/7bxopjWGDos/s1600/lens13715451_1287083856hello-kitty-costume.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">At the least I could make the headband.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I remembered to take photos during the process this time so I can actually post a quick and easy tutorial. Character headbands like this are great for when you don't want to wear a full out costume to work or to school. Or just for fun I guess. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you're feeling REAL ambitious you can always go for this costume </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KIVLUBF-Kco/TptCoEX-KyI/AAAAAAAAAnM/Um5EwywFDi0/s1600/0f00e_432hellokittycostume.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KIVLUBF-Kco/TptCoEX-KyI/AAAAAAAAAnM/Um5EwywFDi0/s320/0f00e_432hellokittycostume.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And I also think I'll definitely be making Optimus this little number :D</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After consulting with my mom and her flower friend while in Michigan- the final wedding wreath design was decided on. I am pretty happy with it if I do say so myself. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The felt flower pattern I used is from purl bee's <a href="http://www.purlbee.com/rose-barrettes/">rose barrette pattern,</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">and I purchased 12 styrofoam wreath bases for only like $30 with shipping from <a href="http://www.save-on-crafts.com/">save on crafts</a>. Great site if you are making bulk crafts- The wreaths were like $3.50 each at the craft store. Yay online shopping win! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And I thought they were so cute- but Chevy Chase (my fur baby Rat Terrier) is so broad chested they wouldn't fit him and I was sad.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But then I realized I could make one for him.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I made a prototype last night,</div><div style="text-align: center;">and am working on the finished product but it is pretty spot on.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
I can't post a tutorial though, because I'm pretty sure that's infringing on yap's copyright,</div><div style="text-align: center;">but I will say it's pretty easy if you can just take measurements of your doggle where the little velcro straps are.
