I went into the vault (aka: our storage container) and pulled out my Pinstriping supplies. Only thing is the weather is cold and that makes for crappy dry time. Still gonna handle it though. Just have to find a place where no ones gonna complain about the lovely aroma of lacquer thinner and One Shot. 
(*if you want to see my first EVER pieces I did when I was a lil Daria peep my Flickr Page!)
But in that vein of wanting to do something, I tweeked out on this stick I collected on a trip up to Patricks Point Beach in Trinidad (CA). 
My kid was bound to poke herself w/the stick as she raided my CraftCrap pantry so I figured what better time than that exact moment of her disassembly that I should just handle this lil baby project.
Nothing special here. A stick. A black Sharpie marker. A gold Sharpie paint pen. I went freestyle mode cause it was an on ur toes "lets do some shit NOW!" kinda thing. The stick had a great shape which led to its weird snake design. All in all, 10 mins tops (which includes time to answer all family questions and not get bumped by the baby while drawing.) Schweeet!
These sticks from the beach make awesome all kinds of things. Mostly I use them for my hair but they also make cool decorations for potted plants or as an artistic distraction method for kids to unleash their creativity with and leave you the hell alone for at least a few mins.
