Screen Refresh

If you saw my original post on my Android home screens, the first image here will look familiar. I've gone with a custom wallpaper desk-like theme using transparent icons. I'm still happy with the main home screen, but I'm not really excited about any of the other screens. They're fun, but not great. So I've started working on updates. Since I finished updating screen 2, I thought I'd share. 

Here is the before. You can see that although the intent is to have things look like they're sitting on a desk, it's not very well accomplished.

So I changed it up. I put everything on shelves instead. Not only are shelves better looking than desk clutter in the real world, they're also better on my phone screen.

What do you think?

Advent

Three and a half years... In the last three and a half years, we've moved to another state, had a baby, and bought a house (therefore moving again). I hate moving.  But this post isn't about all that. I wanted to capture what I'm doing to make this Christmas time more special for my kids (mostly the 5yo at this point because 15mo is clueless). First, every year I select my favorite of our extensive Christmas book selection and add in a few new books, maybe a puzzle or movie or two. Then wrap each item to make a (mostly) Christmas book advent calendar.  So I thought that was that and we'd be all good. We'd try to make cookies and go look at Christmas lights at some point of course, too, but I didn't need any of those toy calendars or chocolate calendars.  Except, our church sent out the supplies to make an advent calendar. And 5yo likes making things. And 5yo wanted to put something in the little bags. So fine, I thought, I'll have her help me make it then ru

I made this today

I've been creating a lot again lately. And it feels good.

Pretty....

Thanks to my mom and mother-in-law, I can now get started on my new creative outlet, jewelry making! Both got me gifts related to the endeavor and I've jumped right in. This is a photo of my first project. I still have some things to improve, of course, but I'm really happy with how they turned out and excited to try more things!
