I Think Someone is Hinting

NerdDad sent me a piece talking about how great the Dr. Horrible DVD is. So you think someone might be hinting for Valentine’s Day? It is only $10.50 so I may just have to get it for me (I mean him;). If you missed Dr. Horrible or haven’t heard of him, get out from under the internet rock. Dr. Horrible was hilarious and I definitely want to see it again! Joss Whedon is a genius with Neil Patrick Harris and Nathan Fillion are so funny!

Making Cute Clips and a Giveaway!

Cute clips eh? You wouldn’t believe how easy and inexpensive they are to make.

Materials:

Alligator Hair Clips (you get them at a beauty supply place, you can get 60 for less than $5)

Ribbon ( I got the red ribbon 75% off $1.99 and the striped as part of a 3 pack for 50 cents)

Fray Check

Glue Gun

Binder Clip (unseen)

Process:
Cut a length of ribbon and apply Fray Check. Then place the Alligator Clip on the binder clip (this prevents the clip from glueing shut). Then place hot glue on first section of ribbon that goes on the top inside and press down. Then put hot glue on the clip itself and press the ribbon all along the clip. Tada! You are done!
