I did my first video in the series DIY videos I am doing this week.  It was my normal catastrophe.  My workspace wasn’t large enough for the task at hand so the contact paper adhered to itself (naturally), and me (naturally), and had bubbles and waves and you name it, there were some pretty sticky issues.  I finally got them resolved but it is frustrating when you can do a project but not in the space that a video will allow.  Also, to be honest, my craft area is in a horrible disarray.

Additionally,  I’m not sure what I did, but lost my favorite Tim Holtz scissors and had to use the long ones.  Another major problem because I can’t really work them well, so I just hacked at a rubber stamp until I got it trimmed.  I am a master craftsman. as you probably already know.  If people only watch my videos to see what dilemmas I create, it would be worth it.  I know I often laugh at myself during videos, but I am kind of a mess.  I took the sticker off of the back of a rubber stamp and before I could adhere it to the new storage system, I lost it.  It was there one moment and gone the next.  Still nowhere to be found.  Where could it have gone?  I even watched the video trying to find it and it was there one moment and poof, gone.  I’ll bet Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire never have these problems.  To be fair though, they do a voice over so all of their mistakes can be hidden or deleted and if they lose something, they probably just delete the video.  If I took that approach, I probably wouldn’t have any videos, well what’s the fun in that?
