Ribbon Bows and Flowers

WOOHOO!!!

I finished my bow hanger.  AND to top it off, I made some ribbon bows and flowers to hang on it!

Hehe!

I'm so happy!

Anywho, Angela and I did get a hot glue gun.  My life couldn't be more perfect... Unless, I had a big tub of hot chocolate with whipped cream on top and a big peppermint stick on the side...  THEN my life would be absolutely perfect.

Ok, so it wouldn't look exactly like this.

It would be WAY bigger but still, you probably get the general idea.

The bows were pretty easy...  Thanks to a wonderful thing called Pinterest and Google Search, they make life so much easier.

Question of the day:

What is one thing that would 'perfect' your life (please be creative and NOT serious).

Mine:

The above when I talked about my big tub of hot chocolate, whipped cream, and the big stick of peppermint.

So today, I was going to blog about learning how to crochet or knit.  But, after about two hours of trying I finally gave up...  It also didn't help that my mom doesn't know what she is doing either.

After wasting thirty minutes of my life trying to figure out what to blog about, an idea came to me.  I can make hair bows!!!  I got out a huge box of ribbon and went strait to work.  I had put together some really cute bows and then...

SMACK!

Reality slapped me hard in the face...

Our hot glue guns were missing!

I searched the whole house looking for our two hot glue guns but to no avail.  So, I decided to make a bow hanger instead.

It's great because I didn't need hot glue.  All I needed was cardboard, paint and paintbrushes, and good painting abilities.

Check, check, and not really.  I mean, I'm okay at painting but the brush and I don't get along... I still struggle with painting a smiley face!!!

So instead of painting from the heart, I sketched out what I was going to do and then painted it.

Hopefully I can borrow a hot glue gun tomorrow so then I can make some cute bows to hang on it.

Question of the day:
Have you ever gotten a great idea and in the middle of accomplishing it had reality smack you hard in the face?

Mine:
Durrr!
Good thing I was able to think of something else to blog about.

Random question of the day:
If you could change one thing in this world what would it be?
(I don't want a serious answer, I want something along the lines of: turning everyone's skin green or something ridiculous like that.  NOT something serious like: No more cancer.)
