Photo Shoot
I wanted to a little photo shoot, so my sister
was kind enough to agree to be my model.
The photos aren't the exact look that I was
going for, but I still think that some of them
turned out pretty cool. I think her make-up
was almost exactly how I wanted it. It could
have been a bit more dramatic, but I pretty
much caked it on. I gave her a horse mane
hair style. (It's kind of like the female fohawk.)
It's very popular in the celebrity/modeling
world. Making it look like that is harder than
it looks, but I think it turned out pretty rad. So,
here are the pictures that I liked and enhanced.
Keep in mind I didn't have a lot to work with :)
I blurred the picture below a bit, so it's supposed to be a
little blurred, if you couldn't tell.
This is my favorite one.
I really liked this one too. I like the texture of the hair.
She's so pretty.
Great facial expression :)

Mod Podge Collage
I made this for my mother for Christmas this year.
It only cost about three or four dollars for me to
make. I found the board, which was a really old, useless
white board on one side, and a perfect, old board
for my project on the other. I had a coupon for 20 free
prints, so I was able to get the pictures free. The wire
was in the garage. We already had the Mod Podge.
I found the hardware in my scrapbook stuff that I
don't use anymore.The only thing I actually bought was
the green paint for the board, (about $3). My dad helped
me shape the wire, and my sister helped me Mod Podge the
pictures. Hopefully it doesn't look like it cost three dollars!

slightly warped board - $0
green paint and mod podge - $3
14 prints from snapfish - $0
wire and hardware - $0
collage of the grandkids - hopefully almost priceless

Magnet Board
This is my second magnet board. I helped my sisters
make it for one of their friends. It was a lot easier to
make this one since I was able to think of the little
mistakes of the first one. This one took less time
and looked a lot better than the first one.


Magnet Board
I made this magnet board for my sister for Christmas.
I wish I would have taken before and after shots,
but here is the finished product. I still need to
make the rest of the magnets, but I think it turned
out pretty good for my first magnet board.
