I’ve been looking for something like this online and I’m glad I found it. Over at Dolce Pics there seems to be a photo challenge. They provide the photo, your process, post the image and send the link to them. It’s great to see what everyone has done. Here’s the before from Dolce Pics:

Over at my other blog, I posted a small craft project I did.
Here’s a picture:

I have started working part-time for a limited time, so posts may not be as frequent as they have been in the past.

When I was in seventh grade I had to do a science project. After much thinking I settled on my hypothesis that was something along the lines of: “Which perfume lasts the longest?” I sprayed different scents in different price points on a cotton ball and then put each ball in it’s own ziploc bag [...]

Do you want to hear a secret? Sure you do.
