we hung them from the kitchen all the way around to the other side of our living room</div>

it was Austin's idea, he thought it would cheer me up when I get down about how much school I have left</div>

I'm Gabi from <a href="http://la-vie-en-clothes.blogspot.com/">La Vie En Clothes</a>, and I am super thrilled to be guest posting for Jess while she is away at Cornerstone! Can't tell you how much I admire this girl. I've been following her blog for a while now watching her prepare for the exuberant joys of her wedding and marriagehood, of which I am <strike>extremely jealous</strike> incredibly happy for her ;) Congratulations to the lovely couple! <br />
<br />
I am always so inspired by Jess's craftiness and Do-It-Yourself personality. She has given me so many ideas as to how I want my own wedding to look (only 45 more days!) This summer I've been turned on to crafting more than I ever have before, and I want to take this opportunity to share...<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Why crafting is not just for grandmas anymore!</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>(And lonely people who don't go out much)</b></span></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFNdOJLzCnDCwFMMEU0r-zldivERqSHtA-jk0aIz0pES6utO-wFTlHSCOSOwFP7UWnnuFkGXJcEx5mbY3DjfHX-FuFWLUc8OXBWIVd1cu2nQ-CR1k_INo5e28uFkxCF6a81JmAncf5kM8/s1600/2010_dinner_for_schmucks_003.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFNdOJLzCnDCwFMMEU0r-zldivERqSHtA-jk0aIz0pES6utO-wFTlHSCOSOwFP7UWnnuFkGXJcEx5mbY3DjfHX-FuFWLUc8OXBWIVd1cu2nQ-CR1k_INo5e28uFkxCF6a81JmAncf5kM8/s640/2010_dinner_for_schmucks_003.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>We still love you, Steve Carell <3<br />
<br />
</i><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">So, maybe you're planning a special event or a party on a tight budget. Or maybe your room decor could use some spicing up. Or maybe the summer is dragging on and you're beyond bored. Crafting may be perfect for you! Here are a few reasons why:<br />
<br />
</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://data.whicdn.com/images/8109612/tumblr_lif206pVSy1qgb7zmo1_500_large.jpg?1300725497" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="423" src="http://data.whicdn.com/images/8109612/tumblr_lif206pVSy1qgb7zmo1_500_large.jpg?1300725497" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />
1. Crafting is inexpensive. (And we're broke as a joke!) Of course, there are always exceptions to the rule, but I've found that more often than not, the materials needed for DIY projects are pretty cheap. Aside from the essentials like glue, tape, rulers, etc., you can find a lot of supplies at secondhand shops! Colorful patterned fabrics, glass jars/vases, old photographs and frames, and even furniture that could use some creative alteration all can be found for less than $10 at your local thrift store.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/185930_1599007898150_1324590082_31256636_1329366_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/185930_1599007898150_1324590082_31256636_1329366_n.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div>2. Crafting is personal. Okay, so buying an already-made gift at the store or paying someone to decorate for you does have its conveniences. But what I really love about making something yourself is how special it is. It really shows you took the time and energy out of your day to make that perfect gift that only you and your friend know the inside joke behind it. My good friend Zak spent days building this beautiful bike for his girlfriend, Allison, who also happens to be a genius crafter!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://data.whicdn.com/images/9484427/16995011_1xlLTS7a_c_large.jpg?1304628635" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://data.whicdn.com/images/9484427/16995011_1xlLTS7a_c_large.jpg?1304628635" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
3. Crafting lets you create something unique and innovative out of something old or bland. Case and point. Look at this freakin' repurposed TV that is now a mini bookshelf!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://data.whicdn.com/images/11336615/Favim.com-23330_large.jpg?1309287120" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="625" src="http://data.whicdn.com/images/11336615/Favim.com-23330_large.jpg?1309287120" width="640" /></a></div></div><br />
4. Crafting is relaxing. After a long day of work or school, I know my first impulse is to veg out in front of a computer or TV screen. Why not accomplish something with our hands instead? Right now I'm working on these <a href="http://la-vie-en-clothes.blogspot.com/2011/06/kookaburra-sits-in-old-gum-tree.html">fabric flowers</a> for the wedding that are so easy and adorable, but they're extremely time consuming. So whenever I feel like unwinding, I whip 'em out and craft mindlessly away with some music or a podcast on in the background. An even more fun option is to throw a DIY party! Invite some friends over, buy a ton of junkfood, and craft on like it's 1995.<br />
<br />

</div><div align="center">To fill you in on what's been going on in my life I'm going to do a sort of awkward and awesome post</div><div align="center">similar to what <a href="http://www.thedaybookblog.com/"><em><strong>this lady</strong></em></a> does each week.</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">So, the awkward things </div><div align="center">1. While driving on the interstate I saw a twenty something man driving a convertible porshe with a <em>"kids first"</em> license plate and the top down....it was pouring.</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">2. I have an obsession with toll house ready bake cookies.</div><div align="center">but this week I burned the craps out of them</div><div align="center">...two days in a row</div><div align="center">so sad</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">3. Yesterday, while driving downtown my little sister Madi yelled "Ew! OMG" and pointed out a teenage boy who had his pants around his knees.</div><div align="center">So I promptly yelled "PULL YOUR PANTS UP" out my window.</div><div align="center">He deserved it.</div><div align="center">But he still gave me the bird.</div><div align="center">I thought you weren't allowed to flip off pretty girls with children in the car...</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">4. I got in a little arguement with a cashier at Joann's over my change</div><div align="center">like one of those "are you sure that's right...?" moments</div><div align="center">turns out she was.</div><div align="center">...and I'm a math major</div><div align="center">so embarrassing.</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">5. Getting lectured by the husband about the correct way to paint a wall</div><div align="center">...while he painted the ceiling the wrong color.</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">And now the awesome things</div><div align="center">1. Picked up a new Iphone 4 for the husband</div><div align="center">Now he can send me cute texts that make me so happy and call me on his lunch break :)</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">2. Painted our bathroom a pretty shade of grey</div><div align="center">and now its super cute</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">3. My sisters spent the night and we had tons of fun painting and cooking and watching Narnia :)</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">4. Husband and I both decided that we should paint the kitchen green before we talked about it.</div><div align="center">and now we've picked out the prettiest shade!</div><div align="center">its going to be insanely cute.</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">5. I've been working on these:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCsJvezNvlAD868QD7Lf6UwjHf4OmruJnCMNCdH3Xnu3CF6T1AVdVW-vn_AzGaj7XyzaHUkLeftTc-uv41OnQEY3qHoZrWbLXYaNEaZ0Y02_xRmrcLByYauJhk0lPGRc5gtiwE_ZWySJQ/s1600/iscream.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" i$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCsJvezNvlAD868QD7Lf6UwjHf4OmruJnCMNCdH3Xnu3CF6T1AVdVW-vn_AzGaj7XyzaHUkLeftTc-uv41OnQEY3qHoZrWbLXYaNEaZ0Y02_xRmrcLByYauJhk0lPGRc5gtiwE_ZWySJQ/s640/iscream.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div align="center">they make me giggle</div><div align="center">And I think husband likes them more than I do...</div><div align="center"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">The wedding craziness has officially started. </div><div style="text-align: center;">My dad is a pastor and has officiated several weddings.</div><div style="text-align: center;">He's always told me, "No one remembers anything from their wedding except the things that go wrong."</div><div style="text-align: center;">And I always replied, "Then I'll make sure everything goes wrong at mine."</div><div style="text-align: center;">...should've knocked on wood.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday:</div><div style="text-align: center;">1. I came down with a nasty sinus infection and have been in bed since.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Still not feeling too much better - hopefully these antibiotics will kick in soon.<br />
Also, in case you didn't know antibiotics basically make birth control ineffective.<br />
And I'm getting married in three days... {tmi? probably, but you'll survive}</div><div style="text-align: center;">2. I somehow lost my wedding band - and I never lose <i>anything</i>. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Seriously, my photographic memory can find everything no matter what it is or who owns it. </div><div style="text-align: center;">If its in this house or my car I know where it is.</div><div style="text-align: center;">...except my ring.</div><div style="text-align: center;">This is why I requested that Austin buy me a ring that wasn't too expensive.</div><div style="text-align: center;">So glad I did.</div><div style="text-align: center;">3. To top it off, Austin's new iphone somehow got run over by a car in his driveway last night....<br />
I told him that he won the dumbass competition we were apparently holding all day - hehe.<br />
...I've been watching too much of That 70s Show.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">But despite all that things aren't bad:</div><div style="text-align: center;">1. Because I'm sick, I got to spend the day in bed resting :)<br />
2. Also because I'm sick, Austin's bringing me dinner and orange juice any minute now!<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Also garbage bags... my hero!</div></div><div style="text-align: center;">3. After searching every department store in the area, I finally found Austin's white size 14.5, slim fit, 'not pointy collar', wrinkle free dress shirt. And it was on sale!</div><div style="text-align: center;">{I told him he was a girl for caring that much about a dress shirt - hehe}</div><div style="text-align: center;">Just in time...whew.</div><div style="text-align: center;">He loves it - thank goodness.</div><div style="text-align: center;">4. Austin's cousin and quite possibly my new favorite person, Micah, came over to help me build a playlist for the reception.</div><div style="text-align: center;">{I have a rather passionate hatred for DJs}</div><div style="text-align: center;">He's also going to make dozens of cookies for me and be an usher.<br />
5. And even though I'm sick our friend Jeremi {and the officiant of our wedding} is still going to have coffee with us tonight - even if I am in my pjs and haven't left the bed for hours :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Since I haven't had time to take any photos this week I thought I'd share some of the tunes we'll be playing :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><object height="500" width="550"><param name="movie" value="http://grooveshark.com/widget.swf" /><param name="wmode" value="window" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="flashvars" value="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&playlistID=54689161&bbg=000000&bth=000000&pfg=000000&lfg=000000&bt=FFFFFF&pbg=FFFFFF&pfgh=FFFFFF&si=FFFFFF&lbg=FFFFFF&lfgh=FFFFFF&sb=FFFFFF&bfg=666666&pbgh=666666&lbgh=666666&sbh=666666&p=0" /><embed src="http://grooveshark.com/widget.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="550" height="500"

<br />
I dare you to listen to that Matt & Kim and MGMT and <i>not </i>get up and dance.<br />
And what's a dance party without Passion Pit, Ke$ha {my guilty pleasure}, and Like a G6?<br />
<br />
Especially when I'll be partying with these kids<br />

Austin, Micah, and Shane :)<br />
<br />
<br />
That's all for now.<br />
I won't be posting again until I'm married. Ah!<br />
No worries - I've got a friend to guest blog for me while I'm busy :)<br />
<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful weekend!<br />
