Just Like That, I am Back

 If I said I was back, would you believe me? Blogging is complicated, and there are so many "get rich quick" blogging schemes that make it look like you are a lost cause if you are not currently earning money blogging. And why are you even blogging if you don't have multiple streams of income and entertainment. If you don't have a brand? I do have this website, but I do not have Instagram, Twitter, TikTok (you don't want to see me dance), or whatever is next.  Heck, I haven't even updated this since before the pandemic. So why am I here, writing about being back and then, probably ghosting for another two years? Life has been rough. It's been painful and overwhelming. I am so thankful for you my readers, or what is left of you. I am so thankful you are reading this post. I am so thankful that you are still committed to making the world a more exciting and more sustainable place.  Keep up-cycling my friends, and you never know, I might be back again with an

Hello lovely T-shirt Diary followers!  The Pink Bat Girl is here to rescue you from plain old scrap wood and boredom today with a fun Memorial Day upcycled project!  My block wood is courtesy of an old toddler bed that all of my kids used from Ikea.  The bed has been given away, however, we still had the old wood that went under the mattress.  I thought it would make some really great wood blocks! I took this old wood and my hubby's handy dandy saw and cut them into my desired lengths!.. I love power tools!  So if you would like to make some of these fun decorations here is what you need! Ingredients wood blocks scrapbook paper cut into small strips red, white and blue paint Mod Podge craft glue jewels Start by cutting your wood into blocks.  Paint the top block red, the second block white and the last block blue.

Melted Rainbow Crayon Art Tutorial

I love the melted crayon art all over the internet. My daughter is having a rainbow birthday party this weekend and what would be better than a crayon art canvas with some melted crayons. I mean how hard could it be? Actually, it melted crayon canvas art is pretty much the easiest art project ever. You will need: 64 pack of Crayola crayons (you could do a few 24 packs or use another brand, but I like Crayola's melt-ability) Hot glue gun (with glue of course) Canvas (I used a 16 X 16 inch white canvas) Blow Dryer The first step is to glue your crayons with a hot glue gun in the order you like to the top of the canvas.  I really like the look of the labels facing the same way.  I also tried as much as possible to go with the red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple theme (you know a rainbow for the rainbow party). I started taking some pictures because I was in love with the look of the lined up crayons. I have no idea what I am going to use 100 pictures of a row o

I scoured the online world for an easy headpiece for C1 for my Sister-in-Law JT's wedding with no luck. There were a ideas, but nothing that made me stop watching Food Network and run out to the craft store to grab supplies.  So I was left with no choice but to make my own tutorial for this little beauty: For this wonderful little flower girl: Aren't they all so beautiful. I know I am biased. So here is how to make it. You will need: Floral wire Floral Tape Flowers Wire cutters Flower Girl (to measure her head) Ribbon Fray check Grab your favorite flower girl to-be: Bribe her with some candy to sit still for a minute while you wrap two pieces of floral wire around her head (Yeah C2 snuck in there. gotta love him.): Let the kids play because you are ready to make that flower girl's headpiece (or crown if that is what you want to call it). Snip off the ends of your floral wire. Now break out your floral tape. I choose an off white and boug
