We were at the grocery store with my new tiny calculator that chimed. She was so fascinated with it that as soon as I got too close, she grabbed it and tossed it straight to the tile floor. It shattered in a million tiny pieces. Kids are great!

I have been wanting to redo our master by adding drapes and I think your muslin is the ticket. Thank you for the wonderful ideas. Can't wait to so some paper mache ghosts with my 5 year old this fall. She will LOVE it!

I was about to give up until I saw what you did here!<br />I don't have to sew it on my white drapes, just clip and pin! Thanks so much! Now I can actually MAKE my "toppers"! Yours look fantastic!

I slammed mine in the back door of my suburban, it flew across the parking lot and cracked the front of the screen open. It still worked, I just couldn't tell who was calling or if I was dialing the right number. I used it like that for over 2 years. I was ridiculed and laughed at incessantly, but it's all good!<br /><br />~AmandaAmanda@Imperfectly Beautifulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11171213700434070319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-52742267599029256162009-04-28T13:25:00.000-04:002009-04-28T13:25:00.000-04:00A moment of silence here for the passing of your *...A moment of silence here for the passing of your *beloved* phone.
