Day Twenty-Five

I made felt around a rock! Here is the tutorial I used. It was easy peasy.

It had a heart trapped in the felt.

He only got so far after a long day. He is most disciplined.

Day Twenty-Four

True love managed to do something cool even at a very late and tired hour.

I nearly cheesed out to do two the next day but then was inspired to do some awesome crushagami in bed.

Day Twenty-Four

I dragged the true love in last night and we worked on an XTC song we both like using GarageBand. It is still very rough with many errors but since we put in so much time in to it on a school night (for him at least) I am posting it anyway. We may end up doing a month of music for March. Very alliterative indeed! And this will doubtless return in a more finished form, especially with more harmony and such. Yay! Don't forget you must download to listen...

This is a add-on heart: an old valentine I made for the true love that I just found while cleaning. The song is about love but there ain't no heart in it.

Day Twenty-Two

So I was incredibly inspired by Pomplamoose yesterday (and continue to be so) and decided to get my hands dirty with Garage Band. This is the very imperfect result of many hours of fun by a first time mixer-of-tracks. It was very fun to do and I look forward to doing more of this. Today I am going to look for a book about it to help me out.

I was able to showcase many instruments, all of which *I* got to play. Just what I have always dreamed of doing! This is a song by a band that was a favorite during college and I still like them: Poi Dog Pondering. Enjoy. And listen for the word "heart". You will have to download it and then play it (was struggling with how to post it-also, turn the volume down).

On a side note, you may have noticed the month is drawing to a close. I think I want to continue with making stuff but don't think I want to do hearts. Any suggestions for the next month? I would love to hear them.  Music? Just plain making stuff? Rabbits? The sky's the limit.

Day Twenty-One

Idea totally stolen from Etsy homepage but I changed the material at least. Consider it an homage. We used some of them for dinner too!

Day Twenty

The true love came home and I felt happy but unenergetic to say the least.. 

Day Nineteen

This one is a little bit of a make up since I was not feeling very motivated that day. Oops. This was a collaboration and many of the pics were so fun I just threw a bunch in! We started with hearts and then kind of went from there. Thanks go out my fellow bean and seed artists!
