2. The giganto blanket
3. Origami bows how-to
4. Faceted Vase DIY
5. A nice watch
6. Use foil tape (Home Depot) to make a wall design.
7. Coconut Lemon Banana Bread
8. Just a nice combo (copper, grey, black and white).

I need to make one of those blankets for the couch! My kids adore big, fluffy blankets...maybe I should make one for each of them too, so I can have my own :)

Think I'm gonna finish my knitted scarf project this weekend, that's big enough for me :)

Ha! That giganto blanket is awesome. I can only imagine how heavy it would be on the needles though. Good way to build deltoid strength?
