a crafting accident

a crafting accident----not me but my 4 year old had a 'crafting' accident of sorts. i took him on a michael's run and sure enough, he can get into some trouble in 10 minutes. he found a ball and of course, what do little boys do with balls? bounce them. i told him to stop bouncing it and to put it back. did he? no. he ran after the bouncing ball down an isle and---- he ran his left side of his head right into a hanging rack that was sticking out. OUCH! luckily, it did not cut his head open, no stitches, no blood. just a real bad scratch. he looks a bit like frankenstein. lesson learned the hard way, right? we'll see.

anyone else have crafting accidents? in college, i took a class called arts & crafts for leisure. yes, that was the actual name of the class and it counted towards credits for my major. so one day, we were carving raw potatoes with an x-acto knife to make stamps. of course i don't need to tell you what happened. i ended up getting stitches at the student healh center. i still have a slight scar on the fleshy part of my thumb (palm side). battle scar! i've heard of ladies sewing their finger!had some time to make some cards these past few days. i've been known to lift up my dish, bowl or cup at restaurants and snag the pretty doily underneath and "upcycle" it! an example of that is shown in the card below! hubby automatically knows now and helps me lift up the dish! LOL







TFL! have a great day......almost friday!
