Multi Tasking…

This is the first time I’ve gotten to use my new DA Loom (30″ Small Gauge Adjustable) since I received it as a Christmas gift last year.  Let me tell you, I LOVE it! 🙂  I’m already making it serve double duty, as I’m using it to create another new project that’s been floating around in my noggin’, and I’m using the other end to participate in Isela’s Loom Along at the Decor Accents Chat Ring…the Round Dishcloth that is featured in this season’s Loom Knitter’s Circle Magazine!  I’ve already had experience creating something like this while knitting up the Pinwheel Blanket by Denise, but this one is configured differently, so it’s nice to be able to experiment with another variation.  I didn’t know there were so many ways to create circles!  🙂

Don’t forget about the Spa Set Loom Along happening right now at the Loom Knitter’s Clique!  This makes an excellent gifty for someone special.

Have a wonderful Loomy Day!

…a little fix with Sculpey

I’ve been having a terrible time keeping mine and my husband’s  toothbrush tops from getting mixed up and tipping over…it’s best to dry them off of the electric base, so that they don’t produce mildew, but keeping them from rolling all over is another matter.  😛  They just don’t make organizing products for those, have you noticed? 

Well, it came to me as I was pondering the problem, that I could make my own base out of a little Sculpey Polymer Clay!  I just molded a small ball of it around the openings of a pre-made toothbrush holder, using the actual toothbrush top as a guide.  The contrasting colors will help us to not get our tops mixed up.  When I had it shaped to my liking, I just popped the whole thing into the oven to harden.   Voila!  Problem solved!  😀
