Heidi's Hall on www.etsy.com


I'm selling some cool art on Etsy.
It's like an ebay... but for hand made and crafty things.
I have made 9 mosaics with magazine papers and I think they look pretty cool.
I lost some hours this summer and was hoping to sell some to make up for my lost $ and to fill my time.
Check it out... Heidi's Hall... let me know what you think...

Pooh Bear!

What cool neighbors we have. Pooh Bear came to town for their little ones 2nd b-day.

I didn't know Pooh Bear liked Bud Light.


Oh it's Shaw.

Pooh Bear was being a little inappropriate.

The Carlson Crew.

The lucky Birthday girl who Pooh Bear came to see. Mady Moo.


I'm looking forward to Mady's 3rd b-day party. A Pooh Bear party complete with Pooh might be hard to beat.

Shaw made this very cool plant stand with me his hot and handy helper.
bell peppers
jalapenos



These are some wild berries I picked from behind our property... in the wilderness... there are a ton... but not many ready to eat yet. My birthday bonsai tree from Shaw... it's cool. Trying not to kill it.

our doors

A blog about doors. ok. Possibly kinda boring for you... but not for me.
Shaw put in a new front door a week ago. It is awesome. My 2 favorite parts about it is that:
It opens with ease (which our old one did not do towards the end of it's life) and
It lets in some light. (old one also did not provide that)
I also think it looks quite nice too.

and we got new numbers

This project has been long over due. I finally thought of a good way to fix the ugly swan and flowery frosted glass on the door to the water heater and cleaning stuff closet. A few weeks ago I think Shaw said something like "I'm surprised you haven't done anything to those yet"... and well... I was too... so I did. I used scrapbook paper and taped it up. I think it looks cool I think, it might be a little busy but that hallway (going up to our room) is boring... like most hallways. I think I like it and hopefully Shaw does too...


Woody likes it... he told me.

Our adventure in the city....

Curt and my mom have come and gone... here are a few pictures of our adventure in the city.

We had 2 awesome suites at the Monteleon Hotel in New Orleans 6 floor up above Royal St. in the heart of the French Quarter... It was a great and relaxing time.


This picture of Shaw and I is on the roof. We could see the Mississippi river from our room.

Lunch.

Dinner.

Mother and I in front on Harrahs... I won $8!

Curt and Shaw.... Smoking their cigars.

crafty time.....

It has been crafty time...

I made a few fun mosaics out of magazine pages.


These two are in the crafty room.


This one is in the living room.


I made a snuggly...
different than the 'as seen on tv' snuggie but very much the same...
A blanket with sleeves.


It's awesome... a better color, was half as much $$$, is a thicker fleece and customized extra long...
My mom made us an AWESOME pong cover for our many fun games of beer pong...


Complete with triangles!
