Map Addresses with MapAList and GoogleDrive

Google killed the Spreadsheet gadgets just recently and one that got totally axed was its awesome Map gadget which let you map addresses stored in a spreadsheet. Well, I found a good and free alternative that is just a little bit more complex to use so here's how to use the MapAList site with #GoogleDrive spreadsheet data to create a map from addresses. This is great for restaurant reviews, plotting office locations and lots of other cool things - but you gotta wonder what the folks at Google were drinking when they decided to kill the gadgets!

craft project number 9.

thread stand picture frame.

i recently brought home a book on simple, handmade crafts for the beginner sewer. one of the projects was a gorgeous vintage picture frame that was turned into a thread stand, holding a couple dozen spools of thread. i immediately thought ‘i want to create that’. however, it then got shelved with my many other projects that i have on the go, and was temporarily forgotten.

this morning i made it my goal to completely empty out our spare bedroom, and to rearrange and redecorate it from the ground up. i subsequently found a number of old picture frames and instead of wasting them, i asked myself what i could possibly turn them into. that was when i suddenly remembered the thread stand.

here is the result of possibly the easiest craft that i have done this year. (the wonderful part is that i can add on to it as i accumulate more and more thread!)
