Hello, My Name is Kelly, and I Can't Scrapbook.

I have finally come to terms with this.

After years of buying scrap booking supplies I will never use and continuing to throw pictures in shoe boxes I finally committed to putting the things in a regular old album.

And I feel relieved!

I went and bought these traditional Pioneer brand albums similar to the ones I first saw here. Mine are BP-200 instead of BPD-35 (whatever the heck that means.)

Now I'm organizing them into kind of broad categories and getting the job done. 

Tomato and Basil Flatbread Pizza (Cooking for 2) - 30-Minutes or Less - Eat Better America

Going to have to make this soon.

My New Chandelier.

Found a frame at a thrift store last summer and painted the frame turquoise. 
Then it sat on the floor behind marks chair for months. Finally, on Sunday, I decided to mod podge some old book pages to the picture part. Looked good. 
Syd and I had a Craft day today and while she painted I started drawing a Chandelier. Turns out I'm not very good at drawing chandeliers.... 
But it was fun and that is what matters.
Got out some white acrylic paint and started filling in the lines. I'm not very good at that either.  I still think it's stinkin' cute!
