Four down, & SOOO many more to go!

After a very LONG night, and every now and then, a little hiccup with the sewing machine, I finally did it. I made my own covers! I'm so friggin' proud of myself!!! Remember when you used to ask your teachers, "When are we ever gonna use this?" Well, if I ever asked that in my sewing class in 7th grade (many many moons ago), someone needed to slap me silly because I sure as heck used my skills last night (and today)!!! Without further ado...here they are :o) *takes a bow*

3 of the 4 designs I made...

DIY day!

So today I decide I'm going to be a little thrifty. Instead of buying some covers for my shootsac (a camera lens bag for those of you who aren't familiar), I decide I'm gonna MAKE them :o) That's right, I'm gonna whip out my sewing kit and make it happen. Let's hope I still have all ten fingers by the end of the week! After careful deliberation at the Joanne's Fabric store, I decide on these final five. From left to right: plaid (for when I want to be preppy), blue chenille jacquard (for when I want to be fancy), green-gold-red fuzzy stripes (for when I'm feelin' crazy), red paisely (for when I'm feelin' dressy), and denim floral (for when I'm feelin' funky).

Speaking of DIY, I usually make my own invites. BUT I'm a little busy right now (making covers for my bag of course), so I think I'm going to mail out these cute invites for a VERY highly anticipated "Sex and the City" movie premiere. May 30th! YAY! I'm a die-hard SATC fan. OH! I know! I'll post some pics from the SATC tour I went on when I was in NYC last year! Note to self... :o)

Don't shoot your eye out!

Today I decided to change the cover of my shootsac, and while trying to pull off the cover (which is attached with velcro), it flew out and hit me in the eye. IN the eye! If that's what a little accident like this feels like, I'd hate to imagine what it feels like to get punched in the eye! :o(




It has been tough going back to work. I'm still not used to having this regular schedule again. To keep me alive, I have been using this. (See photo below.) If I could, I'd walk around with an IV of coffee hooked to me.

In other news, my little car is due for a cleaning. I couldn't resist getting this shot :o) Ok, tomorrow I promise I will share real pictures!

Oops!

Ok, so I need to read the details on how to work this blog hahaha...

Welcome to my blog!

Hello, and welcome to my new photo blog! My name is Soupy and I created this blog to document my adventures in photography. This is a hobby that I truly enjoy and would like to turn it into something more than just a hobby one day. So join me on this little adventure, and who knows? Maybe one day, I can look back and say, "Wow, I've come a long way!"...or maybe not. But for now, let's be optimistic! :o)

To start this blog off, I will celebrate with a picture I took today! I'll share more tomorrow as it's getting late!
