40% done...

Between time spent working on my college apps and on AP Lit hw (who do I procrastinate?!), I am slowly getting the necklace done. I'm almost done wrapping yarn on the round wooden beads, and will next move to wrapping yarn around the oval beads. After that, all I have to do is string them together and figure out how I want to close it (Tie it? Use some sort of closure, like a lobster claw? Use those balls, hehe...balls...).

Joann's may be my new favorite store. Since I was a little kid, Michael's was seriously my favorite store. My dad would drop me off there for, like, 2 hours, and when he came back to pick me up, I still wouldn't be finished looking at stuff! However, lately I've been finding more of the supplies that I need for projects at Joann's fabrics. I went today to buy my supplies for the gifts I've yet to make my friends as a late X-Mas gift. When I finished getting those supplies, I checked out the knitting supplies aisle, and I FINALLY FOUND THE DOUBLE-POINTED NEEDLES IN THE RIGHT SIZES that I've been looking for. A little choir sang when I looked at the size 10 needles XD This means that I can finally work on that knit kitty hat I've been wanting to make for about 2 years, now. I also got some in size 8.

So, my to-do list this week:
-finish necklace
-start and finish making X-mas gifts (hint: it includes grosgrain ribbon *winkwinknudgenudgerightrightsaynomore, knowwhatImean?* too much Monty Python for me...)
-maybe make lip gloss for them, as well...?
-make Donna's gift (it involves bleach and an article of clothing ^.~)

and that's prolly all I'll have time for, this week. Then I'll be working on that knit cap and an assload of pop-top belts.
Hoorah!
