Hello again and an epic craft fail!

Over the weekend we went to a concert and saw Aaron Lewis from Staind, and Scott Stapp from Creed. Awesome shows!! We were in the fifth row and had a really good time! If you ever have the chance to see Aaron Lewis GO. There were people who drove hundred’s of miles to see his show and now I know why. His show was entertaining with GREAT music. He spontaneously sang songs the audience yelled out…he sang Purple Rain by Prince better than Prince sings it. There were a few hecklers in the crowd and he threw back one-liners that had us roaring with laughter.

While there I couldn’t help but notice the rug in the lobby…here is a picture taken from above…

And here is my epic craft fail:

What is it you ask? It’s supposed to be resin jewelry. You see it wasn’t hardening properly…so I put it in the oven at a very low temp…and this is what happened. Good chemistry lesson though!

In other news I’ve gotten completely sucked into the books by Stieg Larsson. I have just started book three: The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet’s Nest. Needless to say I haven’t been doing much crafting this week. Will have to rectify that this weekend!

Happy Crafting!!!

I love that rug, that would be so perfect in my kitchen. I really like it and the dots, ideas, ideas!!!
Live and learn with the resin. More patience maybe...longer drying time? You'll get it, you always do.
Take care Kim and have a blessed weekend.
