Move aside Martha Stewart, there's a new Martha in town (Yes, that is completely cheesy, but I'm bored so give me a break).That's right. I have become a Domestic Diva, if you will. This past week I dug up grass and planted a flower garden, painted the front room and kitchen with my roommates, and we hosted a lovely barbecue on the side of our house last night. Also, I was asked to sew dresses for the little girls in my sister's friend's wedding. I think that will be great fun.
I love doing crafty things like that. I like doing stuff that makes things look better, hence the painting and the flower garden. I really love sewing because I can actually wear the finished product. It just seems more practical. I cannot stand scrapbooking. It is so stinkin' expensive, time consuming and I HATE cleaning up all the scraps of paper later. In my mind, why would I spend 15 bucks on ONE scrapbook page that hardly anyone notices, when I can use that 15 dollars to buy some super cute fabric, make a dress and wear it all around. I do however think the whole idea of scrapbooking is a good idea, saving memories for posterity and whatnot, but I choose to use a program called Book Smart. It can be found at www.blurb.com. You make your own book and then they publish it and send it to you. And it only costs about 30 dollars, that's what I am talking about.
P.S. I posted this and then my sister Michelle sent me this picture that she photoshopped, so I had to put it up there. Thanks Michelle!

I love it! Your flower bed is super cute. I didn't know you dug up grass there to do that! That is rad.
I think I will start my own clothing line where you actually wear your scrapbook pages. Maybe a shirt with a little plastic pocket you can insert your favorite scrapbook page.
hahaha. You are a domestic diva Marth. The dresses you make are cute! Way to go. I think Michelle's idea about the scrapbook dress sounds like a winner. Maybe you should try it out. :)
You weren't kidding, you have skills; that dress super cute!! You should have an ultimate Martha-off with that impostor...you work that apron sooo much better. (props to your sister and her photoshop skills...haha)
My sisters are hilarious!! Michelle you should get Brian to hook you up on GURU.com with your photo shop skills you could make a ton of money.
Oh why thank you!!! I am pretty good. You can BARELY even tell that it is 'photoshopped.' But yeah, I used paint.
QUESTION: Can I date Mah-tha?
ANSWER: No, but I have a really cute brother who can.
FACT: MAH-tha IS AWESOME. YES, I said it. And I mean it. haha.
