DECORATIVE PILLOWS!!!



So for the last 1 1/2 months I have been working on these pillows. Every time I go to the store, I always see way cute decorative pillows that I want to buy. I am always convinced that they will spruce up my apartment and make it look so much better, but they are always SO EXPENSIVE. So instead of paying $30/pillow I decided to find the pillows I loved and just copy the general idea. Morgan, believe it or not, contributed some of the greatest pointers for making these pillows look great. And thanks to makeit-loveit.com I was able to implement Morgan's great ideas :D I am a little over half way done. These are the two pillows completely done, and now I'm just waiting on Joann's to get the last two pieces I need....then there will be four beautiful decorative pillows. Each pillow I made is hand-embroidered with a unique design, hand stuffed by Morgan with feathers, and finished with a bias tape piping.

cockroach en mi bano


Once upon the time I had a mouth full of toothpaste, and I was going to the bathroom... Then I saw a cockroach two feet away from me on the floor. I jumped off the toilet and screamed for Morgan. Of course he happened to be in the other bathroom, so he didn't hear me at first. Then my knight in shining armor tackled that cockroach to the ground and fought him to the death. He finished the job by flushing it down the toilet. I then grabbed all my essentials from my bathroom and finished my getting ready for bed in the other bathroom. Well I sure love the weather in Florida, can't say much about the giant insects though.
