Be-dazzling



Ok, so as many of you know, I love sparkly things... At work I have a bedazzled tape measurer, my cell phone is bedazzled, and I am constantly looking for bedazzled items when I am out and about. A few months ago, I was at Garden Ridge and I found a bedazzled stapler, scissors, and tape dispenser. I know, I know, I should have bought them right there on the spot, but I figured, "I should tell people about these and let them know they are great gifts to give me!" Because I am always stumped when people ask me what I want for my birthday/Christmas. WELL, I am so mad right now because I can't find them anymore!!! If anyone sees stuff like that, will you let me know! I really want them!!!




Why, do you ask, don't I bedazzle these items myself? Well, let me fill you in on a little story that happened about 3 months ago... You see, in additon to my love for bedazzling, I also love sleeping pills, Ambien CR especially. So, one night, I figured I would have trouble sleeping, so I took an Ambien around 7:30 pm (mind you, these pill kick in approx. 30 min after you take them, so I probably didn't need to really take it until 9:00-9:30ish, ooops.). I had been toying with the idea of sprucing up my brand new Sprint Instinct M800 (the Sprint version of the iphone), and a light bulb went off in my head! Why don't I get out my old scrapbooking stuff and bedazzle my phone? It should be super easy! So, I set to the task at hand and soon realized that it was much harder to glue the 1 millimeter rhinestones in a perfectly straight line. Never mind the disaster of glue that I left behind! And did I mention that I took an Ambien an hour ago? I giggled to myself at the horror that was my "bedazzled" phone. Also, I forgot to mention that I got really sleepy for some reason? So I stopped about a quarter of the way through.




Needless to say, I ended up getting a new phone because I accidently "broke" my other one (it was a hideous sight and I conveniently had insurance). I then decided to search the internet for pre-bedazzled phone covers and now, whah-la!
