Yard Sale!

Everyone come to our Yard Sale this Saturday, July 18th, from 8 am to noon. I will be joining forces with a couple other friends so the selection will be spectacular! Here is a brief list of the awesomeness that this yard sale will have:
-Bar stools
-LOTS of home decor
-Women's clothing that has mostly likely been worn only once
-VHS movies (wahoo!)
-George Foreman grills
-Dutch Oven
-Computer desk(s)
If you don't know where I live, then maybe you shouldn't be reading this blog...kidding, just let me know and I'll hook you up with the address.

This Clock Rocks my Socks

So a couple months ago, I found this clock online...
It is made by Steve Cambronne - a metal sculptor. He has amazing stuff - check it out here.
So instead of paying the $250 for it, Brody and I embraced our inner craftiness and total ripped off his design.
I started by drawing the shapes and tracing them on to a piece of wood.
Brody cut out the shapes with some fancy wood-cutting tools and then I painted all the pieces...
We glued the pieces together using some super-sticky wood glue...
and Voila!
I'm so in love with it! You can't tell from the picture, but it is very 3-D. Coolest. Clock. Ever.
