Hey! I'm Donna, and I live in Pearland, Texas. My birthday is March 18, and I'll be the BIG 5-0 this year! I spend a lot of time online and obsessing over whichever current fad I'm into at the moment. I usually choose a new craft or hobby, get into it for a while, buy all of the supplies, and then move on to something new. I've done cross-stitch, scrapbooking, belly dancing, Pandora-style bracelets, couponing, and countless other things. I'm currently obsessing on creating Teesha Moore bags and a Harry Potter potions cabinet. I'm a stay-at-home mom, although 3 of my kids are grown and out on their own, leaving a 13-year-old and a lot of time on my hands. I'm thinking about going back to school to get my masters degree in accounting, but it won't be until summer or fall of 2012. I get my inspirations from Pinterest and projects completed by other people. All it takes is a little spark! and I'm off on another quest! My Pinterest boards will give you some idea of what types of things I like: http://pinterest.com/dmarie360/ things i like: Harry Potter (my house is Hufflepuff) Vampire Diaries Twilight Pride & Prejudice (especially the movie from 2005) Teesha Moore (except for the pictures of people's heads and faces, which kind of creep me out) pears (since I live in Pearland, I've started collecting and decorating with pears. I know, original, right?) koi Star Trek (any series) London (I have a London-themed guest room in black/white with red accents) favorite colors: blue overall, black/yellow for Harry Potter Hufflepuff, red/black for Twilight and Vampire Diaries, and all of my clothes are basically black and white fruity scents (for lotions, etc.) The Lord of the Rings crafted items: Teesha Moore squares (specifically, London themed or Pride & Prejudice, as I'm thinking about making a bag for each theme) bracelets or anklets a loaded charm bracelet fun and creative pillow cases for my guest rooms small vertical koi prints craft supplies: embroidery floss #5 (all colors) fabric scraps assorted buttons store-bought stuff: insulated cup with lid for hot chocolate scissors (I'm always losing mine) pinking shears would be ultra-nice! extra blades for my x-acto knife things i don't particularly care for: hoopla embroideries crocheted stuff necklaces/earrings coffee or coffee-flavored anything profanity dolls floral scents (lotions, potporri, etc.)
