Stop Motion.
I have been playing around with Stop motion animation! It is super fun, but it takes a good amount of time. This is just a little test of it. Something small. Hope you enjoy it! Tell me what you think.

Step Stool.
When I was in High School I came across an abandoned Stepping stool someone made. It was in bad condition with screws poking through the top and a wood burning mess on the top. However that did not stop me in taking it in and to see what I can do to it.
Here is a picture of my new Stool!
I fixed the screws, and sanded down the top. I painted the top with flowers! I think it looks great.

Value Village
I love going to Value Village. There is something about old and used items that gets me inspired. Last year, while shopping there, I came across an amazing collapsible chair for only two dollars! I had to buy it, and I did. At the time my only way of transportation was the bus, and once again people were giving me strange looks.
My mistake was going over to a friends house before taking it home. Upon which I forgot the chair, and there it stayed for almost a full year.
Finally I got my chair back a couple months ago. I started painting it and finally I have finished it.
I think it is a great design! Tell me what you think!
I just recently went back to Value Village and bought another chair. This one does not fold up and is very heavy. I`m thinking about wood burning the whole thing with random designs. It is going to take a very long time. Hopefully you will see it on my blog in the future!

Pizza Fun!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Flour
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsp Oregano
- 1/2 Garlic Powder
- 2 dashes Cayenne Pepper
- 2/3 cup Water
- 1 Tbsp Cooking oil
Steps:
Preheat over to 400 degrees and prepare a pizza pan with non-stick spray. I have a pizza stone and did not have to spray the stone.
| Mix dry ingredients together. |
| Mix in wet ingredients. I noticed when making the dough that it was very dry looking, and that lots of flour was left behind; don't worry about that. |
| Lightly cover your counter with some flower. Knead the dough 6-8 times. Again the dough will look dry just keep following the steps. In the end it tastes great! |
| Roll out your dough. As you can see I am horrible at making a circle out of dough and bet you can do way better. |
| Than add any toppings you like on the top. Depending on how thick you made your crust, cook for 18-20 minutes. |
These are my finished products. These pizza's tasted so good! Make this crust and tell me what you think!

Knitting Pillows!
A while back my grandmother showed me how to knit. I picked up the craft very quickly, with her great instructions and a book she bought me for Christmas. I started off with the intentions of making a blanket. I picked really bright colors because at the time that was what I liked. Red, orange, yellow green, blue, and purple were the colors I picked out. I started making knitted squares for my blanket, but after awhile of knitting eventually I went on to other crafts. A couple weeks ago, I finally sat down on my living room couch and started to knit. As I was sitting there I realized I should have made my squares a lot bigger. At the rate I was knitting; I would have my blanket done in three years. I was laying on a really comfy pillow at the time when it donned on me, why not make a knitted pillow? Really excited about the idea I counted and laid out all my knitted squares. I found an old travel pillow that I knew no one would miss and started sewing my pillow together! It was a great project, and I even used my first testing square for a pocket for a book! I put a cute flower button on it and I must say it is a super cute pillow!
If you know how to knit, try making a pillow! It is super easy and they turn out great! Here is mine.
