Everyday Moments

Larissa asked me to 3D print a bone for a costume (Pebbles from the Flintstones).  The puppies eyeing it off in the background when I sent through a pic to Larissa makes me laugh!

Craig and I had a RDO Monday last week, so had a sushi lunch date.

Craig and Clay had a hit on the court before practice last week.  Clay is still loving pickleball and I can see big improvements every week - I'm super proud of him.

State of Origin is on again - school encouraged the kids to wear their team colours.  Clay said there were only a few other kids dressed in blue :)

The principal brought his oet lamb to school - Clay fell in l9ve with it and wants one as a pet now LOL

Starlab came to school - it was a large igloo shaped inflatble that projected the stars / sky / solar system- Clay really enjoyed it.

Sports Day

Clay survived another year of the Hunger Games (AKA sports day) LOL craigand Nanny wrtr there to cheer him on and even though he wasn't keen on going, he had a great day participating and cheering on his house.  He was very happy when the resuts were tallied and his house won - what a great way to finish his final year of primary school :)

Cricut Creations - Display Case

When i brought the plastic display cases from the op shop I knew exactly what I wanted to make with it...I knew I was going to display the apple from the Sphere, but add some Oz themed images :)  I am so pleased with how this turned out!

Cricut Creations - Mug

A few months ago I was gifted a mug press - I was so surprised and excited! I hadn't use it till this weekend as nowhere locally sold unfusible paper, so I had to order some online. This is my first attempt- the image got a little burnt, but I'm really happy with it :)  I made it for one of the techs at work - I hope he likes it.

3D Print Creations - Hooks

I've been busy printing hooks to hand my Loungefly/ Disney bags and Clay's Star Wars droid bag on.  Now I just need to get them onto the walls LOL

Thrifty Thursday

Saturday was my birthday and the boys asked what I wanted to do .... op shop of course!! LOL

I did start off at a 2nd hand book shop that I had been wanting to visit for ages - they posted pics of the Australian authors they have in stock and there were some books I had been looking for!  I've started reading another Fiona McCallum book recently and realised it's part of a trilogy.  I could follow the story, but decided I wanted to read the first 2 books ...and the book shop had them for $9 each!   They are actually a book exchange, so I will go through my books and exchange a few.

After the book shop it was time to head to Bargara to hit the oppies!!  At the first shop Clay and I found books total $4.50.  Clay found another Funny Kid book, I found the Mickey book for crafting, the Elf book will be gifted at Xmas and the Sleeping Beauty book is for our Disney collection.

I found this Dog Man board game for $4

At the 2nd op shop I found a much coverted item from my wish list....an Esterwidler brooch for $4!! It's the Sugar Plum Fairy (2018 collection) - the gold wind up part from the side is broken off, but I dont mind.  I didn't even know it was Esterwilder until after I brought it and did a Google search!

Books $4 total (I love Vinnies 3 for $2 of kids books!)

More books $2 & $3. 

Games $2 each - we were excited to find the Christmas game - we have the Taco, Pizza...game version and it's very popular :)

We headed back into town and one last op shop for my birthday fun and I started off with another book -$3!  This is the the prequal of the book I recently read.

Mini beaded tree necklace $2

Roll of burlap ribbon $4

Monday Craig and I both had RDO, so when he went into work to grab his jacket I popped into the op shop 3 doors down ;)  The volunteer that was sorting out the books said they get a lot of Rachel John books in - so I'm taking that as I sign will need to visit more regularly LOL 

Book $1

Display cases $1 each - I think these are the perfect size for the foam apples Kristy and I have from the Sphere Wizard of Oz.

Frame $2 - I have a picture ledge idea and this will be a great size!

Dress $5

Brand new set of cheese knives $4 - I LOVE this brand!  Kristy brought me a similar set for our camper and they are fantastic!!

Cricut Creations - Bag

I wanted to make bag for a friend's birthday and this SVG was perfect for her :)  I used a combination of gold glitter, green foil and plain black HTV for the design.  The green foil was an absolute nightmare to cut and weed, but after 2 goes I finally hot it done LOL  It's a bit hard yo photograph, but turned out really pretty - I hope she likes it :)
