Tired

I have been tired yesterday and today as well. I don't know why since I only worked until 1 pm today (too dreary today so boss-man told me to go home). I went to Michaels to see if there are anything worth buying, no luck for me. The stuff in the circulars sound awesome but nothing I wanted was on sale -_-

But I have been collecting huge Styrofoam sheets for a while now. Got most of them from work. They're all about 1.5 inches thick, some are about 2 feet by 3 feet in size while some are just under 2x2. I have been meaning to make something of this stuff. I was planning to make a small cabinet or something, but I don't know how well it would hold up!

Anyways, I chose a 2x3 and decided to make an inspiration board today.  I lightly glued cardboard (thick application of glue might make the cardboard impenetrable O_o) on one side because I imagined that styrofoam won't hold pushpins all that well on its own. Then I picked out my favorite color gift wrap and glued that on as well. I have a few bits of twine and tan/brown yarn that I am going to use to hang this... when I get to buy some Command Strips. Those things are AWESOME!
I also took some pushpins and dipped them in pink acrylic paint to match the pink dots on the giftwrapper. ZOMG this is gonna look soooo cute! Maybe I am going to make one for my bathroom (maybe for my jewelry and little knick knacks?), but I am going to have to find me some pink cloth to match the other stuff in my bathroom. Hmm... might find something at the dollar store...
