And So We Begin

First thing you must know about me... I wear pearls every day.
To work, to the gym, to cook, to bed..... Always.
A lady is always prepared.

I'm not a new blogger.... I have blogged about my travels before....

And tried a blog about the food I make, but quickly forgot about it.

Yea..... I'm all over the Internet... There is no fighting it anymore

So I'm trying my hand at a more all comprehensive blog about what I do creatively..... Aka.... Most of my crazy ideas.

Recent projects

1.Past Craft: Garder for my friend Adam's friends Wedding.

So my fabulous friend Adam was best man in a wedding and was looking for a garder for his friend. Of course I spoke up and said I could make it personalized for much cheaper. I went to Joann Fabrics, grabbed lace, ribbon, and thread. Then took a pearl from an old necklace of mine... Here is the result.

2. Monthly Craft Nights: How they began.... And where you can read about them

My friend Laura Is very crafty too. And is HILARIOUS! We were friends in college, then drifted apart. But as fate would have it we have reconnected. Since October we have been trying for a monthly craft night. Basically we gather some people together...eat...drink...etc...then try to work on a craft.

3. Valentines Day: The gift of giving to the one you love

Karen is a great sport, and actually appreciates when I want us to institute 'Home Made' gifts for the holidays. This Valentines day I wanted to make her a winter Pittsburgh Penguins Hat. I crocheted the hat, then lined it with a microfiber fleece, then taught myself to cross stitch.... And made the Pittsburgh Penguins logo.

Needless to say....she loved it

4. Choreography: NorthGate High School Musical - Guys and Dolls

My good friend Stephanie asked me to help out NorthGate High School by
volunteering to choreograph their Musical. It has been going really well. love working with this age group. I think I forgot how fun it is (since I have been primarily working with Elementary and middle school kids for the past 5years).

You can see pictures of our rehearsals here: http://web.me.com/jaydeelake/Musical/Call_Board/Archive.html
