Hello again! I bet you didn't expect me to post again so soon. Well, I decided to tell you a few things now instead of later because some of this is kind of interesting and I'm not sure when I'll blog again.
That is IF I blog again.
Since I downloaded Window 10, I have had a bad time with Blogger and Pinterest.
Anyone else having problems ?? Some of my links are broken and I don't seem to be able to add new ones. So it looks like people may have to copy and paste for a while.
Has Pinterest changed their format?? Definitely don't like it. My name is gone and I tried to add my profile picture and that did't work either. Oh well.
This first note may be important to new polymer clay people. About 3 weeks ago, I made some cupcakes but had no room on my baking tile so set them on a piece of styrofoam to wait for the next round of baking. Went to find them and they were gone. And here is what happened:
There must have been some chemical reaction because they had sunk down about 1/2 " into the styrofoam. Here's the underside of the styrofoam.
Good thing I keep my ceiling fan on all the time.
Now on to nicer stuff.
I made an easel to show of a really nice painting I'll be putting in my Mariner Shop. I was pleased with how it turned out and it does actually fold.
I also got a new toy.
I know I'll use the magnifying glass a lot ( when I start needlepoint again) and maybe the clamps. The clamps are very tight so I need to be careful on how I use them. I have seen this for sale in a catalog for $17 but this one cost only $5 at a store called Harbor Freight Tools and they are nationwide.
Every now and then, I come across a blog that I like to let people know about because they make such neat stuff. I follow all 4 of these because I like what I see.
The next two are by the same blogger.

Well, I'm off again. This time to watch the Olympics. My apologies that this is such an uninteresting post, but it will be better next time.
Enjoy the rest of the summer!
