This reminds me of the scene in The Incredibles when Elastigirl is telling Mr Incredible that they are officially moved in 3 years after they moved in because she just unpacked that last box. It may be a kids' movie, but I like it all the same.
On a different note, I bought a loom the other day. A beading loom. I know I know, judge me if you will. One second I am looming beaded bracelets and spend short bits of free time cruising the isles at Joann Craft and the next second I will be crocheting toilet paper covers to resemble a dress and shove an off-brand barbie through the hole of the toilet paper and make dolls to cover every day appliances such as a vacuum or aprons on dish soap (see pictures below for reference). Don't worry though, I am very self-aware and realize I am walking a fine line between creative and wacky-denim-dress-clad-middle-aged-crafter. Really I am just cheap, I see expensive things at stores and online and I think, "I could make that" and then I make my own version of whatever I like. That's why I got into knitting, beading and a number of other things.
If the bracelets turn out nice-ish I will take pictures... if they don't, just forget I said anything. I'm going to bed now.
PS Those pictures are not fictional, I have seen these things with my own eyes. They are meant to make things "fancy" I guess.

I think these pictures were stolen directly from childhood. my grandmother would approve.
Just telling my friend yesterday how hilarious we thought it was that my sister in law had a little apron on her bottle of dish detergent. We teased her unmercifully. My friend had never heard of this little craft project, so now I have a picture to show her. Thanks!
