Awwww Phooey!

Is it Monday already? Officially it is indeed. Mondays are made easier however by a good weekend,  and I definitely had one of those. Saturday  was my first real day off in 3 weeks or so and I e njoyed every minute of it. I slept in late, and when I did wake up, my friend Ashley was here to visit for the day. This was probably the longest amount of time I have gotten to spend with her since she graduated a year and a half ago. One of the highlights fr me was when she found a new necklace of mine and insisted I list it on my etsy page and took it upon herself to model and photograph it.

There she is! Sideways and missing a bit of her head, but looking sharp in her Dorkorama original design!

We crafted, ate poutine, and watched Girls Just Want to Have Fun. Pretty much the perfect day.

I also spent a good chunk of time this weekend resin casting. The more I do this, the less confident I get. There were a good n umber of happy accidents though. These were some of my favorites:






My photography skills are atrocious, but you get the idea. And last, but certainly not least, I completed my long planned Cindy Lauper Clock! It's so rad, and now I can't wait to make more record clocks. My fella even got excited about this one, he's talking laser disk clocks, computer parts clocks...



So happy with this, look for similar ones at dorkorama99.etsy.com really soon!
Make the most of your Monday folks, Only 5 days to go!

OMGWTF is That?

When I'm at the computer and I just don't know where to go, I always go to fffound. Users post and share the most amazing, crazy and downright intriguing images. I love to hop through different users collections to see what amazing things I stumble across. Such as...



 
Super rad!

Here I go again...

Over the years I've started a number of blogs,  each time full of good intentions. I was going to produce beautiful prose to share my joys and frustrations and obsessions and favorite diversions. Within a month I usually couldn't even remember my password. This time will be different!!! Probably not, but I'll give it a whirl anyway.  Hold me to it, will ya?
