Okay, so I need some ideas here. I have a dear friend who reads WAY too many magazines. To prevent her from wasting them and throwning them away, I've been taking them off her hands for about a year now. I used to collage, so her collection kept me busy but wasn't too much to handle. But with working more and more class, I've got less time to collage. I would feel bad seeing them go to waste, but I can't find anyone else who'd want or need them. I just got a text "more magazine for u!" Somebody help!
and so it's not text only :]

The Corpse Bride Rag Dolls
Mar. 26th, 2008 07:26 pmSince people keep asking when I'm going to...I figured it was about time I made the corpse bride.
I got frustrated with trying to find fabrics for her dress, so I hand dyed some chiffon and I think it turned out lovely :)
Though they look very similar, the pictures are of two different dolls!

Vintage Button Pendants
Mar. 26th, 2008 10:06 pmAs you may recall from this post, I was looking for ideas for some of the vintage items I have. I was so happy to come across an idea to do something productive with the fantastic buttons that I inherited, while they are special, I don't want them to forever be confined to a collection in jars.
So simple, but so delightful as well!

Kiln Questions
Mar. 26th, 2008 10:21 pmHey all you lucky ladies who own kilns...
I'm looking into purchasing This small kiln and had some questions about owning one.
Where do you ladies keep your kilns? I have a craft room which is where I was planning to store and fire mine in, and a table set up next to a window so I can vent out that great smelly firing kiln smell...and a fan is in my purchasing plan. Since we have really old shaggy carpet throughout the house I was planning on sitting the kiln up on cinder blocks on the table to keep it off the carpet. I know the outside of these gets really hot so I'm wondering if you all think that's the best route to go or if something else may be better.
Next question...it's a small kiln and it'll run on a house curcuit but we have an old house with so-so wiring. I was wondering if any of you have had any problems running yours in your house and what you did or think I should do to make running it easier/safer.
Also...digital or manual?
I've been planning on getting one for a long time now so I'm really excited. ^_^ Any advice you all have is greatly appreciated.
Sorry about the text only. My life for the last few monthes has been devoted to cleaning my craft room. But it's finally almost done now. Hoorah! ^__^
Thanks in advance! <3
