Getting Crafty-ish

I am not very crafty.  

I don't like to scrapbook.  

I have a sewing machine, 

and the people who have used it

tell me that it's a good one.

 

 

But I did take this:

 

And turn it in to this:
 

A bulletin board for Carly's Room!

btw those are txt 

whether or not this thing stays "put together" is TBD

when it falls apart, I will not be rotfl

I spray painted the frame, 

(love me some black spray paint)

making sure I destroyed the ugly picture in the process.

Should've worn gloves.  

 

Then I covered it with Cork Squares,

which strangely enough smelled worse than spray paint.

Don't inhale, sweet baby girl.

 

Then I hotglued the fabric on.

Making sure to burn myself a few times in the process.

Because it's not considered a successful hotglue-ing

unless you are peeling hotglue off your blistered fingers.

Then I hung it!
