Martha.

I keep thinking how wonderful Martha Stewart is. 
I mean she's crafting and she cooks and decorates and does crazy cool crap. 
She seems like an angel from above with a hot glue gun in her hand. 

Until I was on her website and was looking around, in my pretty little head I thought Martha Stewart was shewoman. She knew it all and did it all, she even went to jail! Come on....

Except that Martha also has a team of thousands that do basically everything for her, craft blogs, makeup people, tv crew, chefs, I'm sure that if I had all that I could blog every day about how awesome I am too. 

So it took me like an hour to iron all of my fabric, learning from my mistake of don't wash reds with whites and I got some streaks.....but I'm not perfect


It does make me happy that my fabric collection is growing. and that one of my hardest projects is almost done. 

Not only did paint, erase, and repaint all of this like a thousand times. I free handed about half of it and this is only half of it. The middle is going to be a chalk/magnetic board with beer cap magnets. I've made a thousand of theses, but this is the first one I've made for a boy. 

I'm super nervous about his reaction. but we've been friends since forever. So hopefully he'll take that into consideration. 

I'll be posting the tutorial on this at a later date with prettier paint color and the backing intact.
