On the Farm!



So, since it has been such a long time since I posted anything, why not update this blog a bit more? Here's one of my favorite recently taken pictures. It's my friend's barn cat, and he decided he was going to model for me... Some day I really want to live on a farm with a whole bunch of animals. It's been my dream since I was a little kid, and I hope some day it'll actually work out! Just for the heck of it, here's a picture Ashley (whose cat this picture is of) took of my riding her horse, Pickles. It was my first time riding a horse without anyone directing the horse for me... Very exciting!

10-Minute Braided Belt

Front: Simple braid. For my waist it took
3 pieces of suede cord each a little over
a yard long... Guestimation!
Back: Added a few wooden beads to the end for looks (and to
keep the ends all going down and not flinking up). 
It's been far too long since I posted anything, not that anyone really looks on here anyways! But! Today I did something that I consider pretty cool. As I was packing for the beach, I realized I didn't like how any of the belts I have look with one of my dresses that I really wanted to bring. My waist is a tiny bit too small for the dress, so it kind of has to has a belt. So, I decided to make my own. Using a few yards of suede leather cord that I originally bought for bracelet making, I made this braided belt, and I really like how it turned out! For some reason it won't let me keep the photos in the layout that I want them to be in... So excuse this strange positioning!

Longing

It has been a VERY long time since I posted a picture on here. However, it's not my fault!! My computer died the day after Christmas and I couldn't even upload pictures to my computer. We just got a new computer today. Unfortunately, I don't have photoshop. I had it for a week but it was installed on the now dead computer. Luckily, this picture doesn't need photoshop. It's one of my favorite (and best) pictures. So here's Bentley on Christmas day, wishing he could escape the sunroom!
