Current Obsessions

Hair is the new Feathers: making things out of human hair extensions. Makes a great feathery-effect for the vegans in the house.

Barbie Bonanza: The boy offered me and the queens a tutorial on using the Dremel that made me feel like I was back in highschool shop class: "Now, I know this looks like a pretty dainty little tool, but this blade (taps blade) is strong enough to cut through steel pipe, so it can definitely take off a finger." (Followed by horrified, queeny gasps.) Also, a pair of fake glasses of the nerdy "wayfarer" style make an excellent pair of safety goggles in a pinch. Don't use power tools without them! Protects your eyes and makes you appear to be an expert. Win-win, I'd say.

Sawing Barbie's arms off was tough work, it was quite a bit easier to drill the holes that would make them beads. Now....what to do with all these Barbie arms?
