Can I put a crystal on that?

I’ve been bit by the bug. We all know that I’m a crystal slut. After all, one of Poppy’s middle names is AB2X. Need I say more? But my newest fun is gluing flat back Swarovski stones on things. Basically anything that doesn’t move away fast enough is at risk. So far I’ve crystallized my iPhone case and a piece of wall art. Actually, strike that. I’ve started both those projects and finished neither. Now THAT sounds like me, doesn’t it???

And yet I’m looking around the house with a new eye towards covering all the surfaces in crystals. What’s next??? The fan blades on my bedroom ceiling fan would be cool. So would the edges of the shelves on my Elfa desk. But what if I got tired of it?? I guess I could buy more shelves if that happened. Hm.

And what an expensive little hobby I picked up! Sheesh! But really – I love sparkles.

I’m totally excited that Mom’s been working bit by bit on reorganizing our bead room. She took out the corner desk I used to have in there which is giving us more wall space for book shelves. Now the entire room will be ringed in them. And the best part is that we realized that we will have space in the middle of the room to put the bead storage case that’s been sitting in our garage for two years. YEE HAW! Photos as it starts coming together. Heck, I may even do a little video for y’all!

Back to the grind with me for the remainder of the night. I’m behind on writing instructions so I’ve got to concentrate. It’s hard with these sparkly beads everywhere, though.
