Take a look at Martha's craft room in this month's MSL, and on her website. It makes me want to paint a whole room Martha green. And drawers. I want a bunch of shallow drawers to store stuff. And matching...
I bought the bump chenille stems a long time ago meaning to make these, but only finally did it while playing with my niece this weekend. The Marthadex failed me when I tried to search for the instructions in the...
Another update to the Marthadex (related previous posts). Amy from Angry Chicken and Kingpod was brave enough to let me borrow some of the issues I don't own. All the Martha Stewart Baby issues are now done because of her....
I entered the 3 issues I have of MS Baby into the Marthadex. I only have Spring 2001, Fall 2002, and Spring 2003. If anybody out there has some of the other ones, I would love to have them. :)...
I added my special issues to the Marthadex: 2 Holidays issues and 3 Good Things issues. I unfortunately don't have the Entertaining special issue from the millenium. Next on the agenda is probably Kids and Babies. Current number of articles...
Spice rack v1.0 (aka the scintillation vial spice rack, see previous post) has been found lacking in a few ways. The biggest problem is that spoons won't fit in the little bottles, and the labels (plain paper laminated with packing...
Because of Good Husband's computering skills, the Marthadex lives. This all started out with an obsession and an Endnote library. I was annoyed that my Martha collection had gotten too big to easily find articles when I wanted them, so...
Origami star ornament from the December 2004 Martha. Finally got it to hold together after realizing that it's not supposed to puff out like a balloon, but is just flat and folded. I'm still not 100% sure it's right, but...
Grrr. My worst fears are being realized. Now that Martha's in jail, the whole thing's going downhill. Living, Everyday Food, and Weddings are still holding out, but I fear Kids is a canary in a coalmine. I get home from...
I used to watch Martha every day on TV. Sure, I'd fastforward over most of it, but there were almost always segments and ideas and especially projects worth watching. Reading the blurbs on her web page is a poor substitute....
After a hiatus, I'm back up to my craftiness. (My thesis is out of my hands now, for a while anyway.) My little sister just graduated from college and is seriously in need of cash, so that's what I'm giving...
The Martha swirled eggs are not as easy as they sound in the magazine. It works if you break up the oil a whole lot and then roll the egg around the dye just until the whole thing's coated. Even...
Dumbed down Savon de Marseille from Martha's TV show. I melted a couple of bars of unscented glycerin soap in the microwave and stirred in some Burt's Bees Green Goddess Clay Mask (which they don't seem to carry anymore). It...
