Titles, Who Needs Them

Today I say no to titles because my brain is still dysfunctional from the cold I have finally shaken off for the most part. :)

So I found this interesting product of my wanderings of the wide web called a smudge guard. Being left handed I thought it was a pretty cool idea, and useful because I do get ink/pencil all over the side of my hand when I write/draw. (When laying down color pencil I do use scratch paper to keep from smudging.) When I saw the price I laughed out loud because there is no way I would pay that much for something so simple.

I figured it is something that doesn't need to be perfect or eye appealing so I got a sock that betrayed me, (I bought them a month ago and already my toe was poking through it!) scissors, needle and thread and went to work.

Seen here having it's identity crisis, is my smudge guard so far. Still have the side to cut down a bit and pull together along with securing the edges from future fraying. Not pretty, but it will work :)
