Congrats on your 100th post!!!! It seems like just yesterday you were asking me what I thought of the name Sew Trashy! Still love it!
I looked through the archives to pick a fav post and wow – too many to pick! In looking through them all I realized what a great you and I have shared together!
-going down memory lane with the smurf pic
-getting drenched at the veggie fest
-finding cool stuff at the crafty bastards show
-tons of fun and yummy food on our california trip
-the awesome pillow you made me (and how you helped me decorate my new house)
-trying out your yummy mexican cokes
-your thrift store finds at the Love of Jesus store
-the quirky, hilarious Ukranian craft show with strange food
-the nightmare of me getting to the Cherry Blossom Festival, but having fun once I was there
-your fruity bday
So…I can’t really pick a fav. But I must say I love seeing your creativity and how you make things out of “trash”. I also love the color days and how you find things of a certain color and take amazing pics. The one post I loved the most I think was the Aug 27 red, orange & yellow kind of day. This was so creative and your pic of the paint blobs is amazing and I love the framed bus ticket thingy.
OK – sorry, long post. Cheers to a great 100 posts and to 100 more!!!

Its hard to choose because most of your posts make me want to do something crafty…however the book safe is my fav, I just haven’t gotten around to making one yet

Happy Belated Birthday, and congrats on 100 posts!
I am also a crafter/artist with a thrift obsession, so your thrift posts are my favorites. I love seeing what you found on your treasure hunts – it makes me excited for my next thrift outing (I am going to a bunch of garage sales tomorrow morning! wish me luck!).
Love your upcycling of the collared shirt and tee, that adorable “Hi” sign greeting your guests, and that wonderful kitchen cart.

My favorite post yet has been one that I think truly celebrates the life of an artist. SUCCESSES AND FAILURES.
The String Light….I, as I am sure you were, was so excited to see the result of this amazing idea of a light fixture. You posted, you were excited, you posted the progress, and then you posted your disappointment and what needed to be done to make it better the next time. You could have just ignored this particular project and never spoke of the string light again, but instead you made yourself transparent and shared with us failures too amongst all your amazing work! I loved it. I don’t know if you ever attempted it again or if it’s to come, but I loved that you showed every side.
Thanks for sharing your work. You know I am one of your biggest fans!

congrats!!!! i cant believe its 100 already either!!!! i love love love reading your stuff on here. i have to admit, my favorite is when you have a color every day of the week, and take a million pictures of all the colorful things around you. its always fun and interesting. reminds me of your days in art school and you (we) would look for shapes in ordinary every day things, like how you found a face from the electric sockets. anyway, just wanted you to know i love you and your site!!!!

I’ll keep this short and sweet. If it has a crunchy shell and contains sharp cheesy goodness, it deserves to be made in plush. Your soft taco posts (including the craft show pick), simply rocks!
