What Goes Up...

All of you, as my readers, hopefully understand how much this blog means to be.
I'm not positive if you've learned my love of anchors.

In any case, I found this photo online today and I've decided I need this.

This is absolutely, wonderfully perfect.

"What goes up...must come down"

The beginning photo on my blog has always been hot air balloons.
I've wanted another anchor tattoo that isn't just an anchor.
Plus, I was just talking to Dani today about how I wanted something tattooed in this very spot, but it was going to have to take a lot of thinking about.


I may change up the colors a bit, or I may not.
This is beautiful and I really want it.


Also, I found this recently and may consider putting it on the other thigh. I'm trying to stray away from so much text on my body because I know that sort of thing ages worse than anything else because it can easily become unreadable with saggy skin. Then it holds no meaning at all. Pictures always last, even if they are a bit distorted.




Don't forget to take part in the survey on the right side of the window. =)

D.I.Y. Silhouette Necklaces

Alright, so I found this online and it's brilliant! I really want to do this, but I really need some shrinky dink paper.

Here's the link for more detailed directions: click here.

Basically, you get shrinky dink paper and do this.




Trace the face. Color it in and it will look like this.



Use a hole punch to put holes in the top where the chain or yarn is going to go through.



Bake this paper in oven at 250 degrees for about 4 minutes. You know they are done when the sides are not curled up.
Put the string/chain/yarn through the wholes and wa-lah!


I'd really like to do something along these lines. I'd probably just make a butt-ton.
I'd make an anchor one.
Probably one with me and Lance's first initial.


Just all sorts of cool things. So....someone needs to get me some shrinky dink paper.
PLEEEEASE!!!



or if you could just supply with a butt-ton of plastic with this symbol on it.


Also, it must have the six in the middle.
All I can find in my house is 1, 4, 5, and 7.


Apparently I have no aluminum foil either.
So it looks like this is a dead end plan for now.
