This has nothing to do with our project but I'm really excited with the haul that I got today and you all are the most likely to understand how happy I am right now. I hit up Lowe's, ACMoore, Michael's and Barnes & Noble. I also went to a sports store for compression wraps but that has nothing to do with crafting.

I got cement board tape. I went to Lowe's for drywall joint tape but they didn't have any small rolls of it and I wasn't sure how much I would actually wind up using so I liked the size of the roll and the pattern of the cement board tape plus I got 50 ft of that for less than $4.

A.C.Moore was super fun, as usual. I had a coupon plus today there was a coupon for additional points to go on my card. I got clearance poster art in various sizes, from full 24x36 poster size to 36x12 pictures. One I think I'm going to frame and some of the others I am going to cut and frame like a triptych but maybe 4-6 pieces total. The rest will be cut up as collage pieces. Each of these were only $1. One dollar each!!! I also got two stained glass art coloring books (one mermaids and one for butterflies), one bottle of gold flecked acrylic ink, some stencils and stencil brushes, a sanding pad, several mini punches, a tiny ream of lace and a container of pearl beading.

Michael's was the surprise for me today. I usually find good stuff there but I honestly didn't have anything in mind but still found $40 worth. I got some mini hemp reams, packets of small crocheted flowers, a ribbon pack, 2 clear stamps, 6 water brushes, a tube of coloring paper washi, a piece of wall art and a roll of jute.

I got a book from B & N, which I will read and then use the pages as background pieces.

I'm getting ready to start my 100 days of art.

I'm looking forward to it and think that I'll have a lot of fun doing it.
