Hello there! I'm Sister Diane and I have two grand passions: making crafts and making media. That's what I write about here, and sometimes, I get all thoughtful about internet culture and creative small businesses. Thanks for stopping by! Would you like some tea?

I Do… perhaps have a little problem.

This is perhaps my favorite plastic canvas book to date. I mean, a plastic canvas wedding!!! An absolute zenith of pc-application!

Look what a sad pricing-journey this little book underwent before finally finding a good home.

This is by far the most elaborate plastic canvas coaster I have ever seen. And I have seen quite a few.

Here it is in situ, amidst a stunningly-complete plastic canvas table setting. That’s one guest finished, 299 more to go….

I’m not marriage-minded, but if I were, you know I would absolutely make a plastic canvas cake-topper like this. With my groom and I residing in effigy for all happy eternity, sheltered by the PC.

In all seriousness, I’m thinking Easter baskets. I know – I really don’t want to think that far ahead right now, either.

My heart just swells.

  • WOW! I’m getting married this year, so this is *definitely* the inspiration I needed!

    I especially love the videotape cover. That is something!

  • Wow, this one’s deeply disturbed. It’s like Bridezilla meets plastic canvas. (I have a deep fear of wedding planning, wedding decorating and the wedding business in general. We went the $25 route at the County Courthouse.) Excuse me while I go take some deep, relaxing breaths…

  • Ok, Sister – I’ll admit that you’ve shown some pretty cute stuff with the plastic canvas, but these are just wayyyy over the top! The place setting is cute, but yahhhh – what if you have 250 guests???

    LOL – over-the-top I say!

  • Holy Smokes. The average wedding takes about a year to plan annd produce. I wonder how long it would take to make all the wedding pc finery?!

    I STILL wouldn’t be married if we had to wait that long.

    Too bad that it is so difficult to be humoristic in another language, but this is really something!

    Over the top and out the tissue box, this is X-treme PCing we’re seeing here.

    It’s easy to understand tho. Once you start making stuff with plastic canvas you find yourself saying…”Hey, I bet I could make…” and the next thing you know your measuring the toaster for a PC-cover. I always think I’m over PC and then I see a cute project (one I would not want to actually display in my home, mind you) and my fingers start itching..

    PC … Plastic Canvas or Plastic Crack? You decide.

  • *laughing hysterically*

    Oh my word. I’m wondering if anyone ever did this? Is this awesome-hideous or hideous-awesome?

    Oh to have my wedding video preserved for future generations in that cover. Beats the puffy fabric covers of the 80s.

    I hereby declare that you must have a PC garter belt should you ever decide to wed. And a PC posy to hold your bouquet in….

  • I’m almost in tears laughing at the VHS cover. It’s worthy of taking up residence on top of a free-standing Grecian pedestal, maybe with a glass case and some spot lighting, museum style. Cue chorus of angels singing “Ahhhh, the sacred wedding video”

    BAHAHAHA!

    Ok, Diane, sweetie… I hear they have programs for PC addiction. Perhaps we can take up a collection and get you a nice spot in one. I hear the walls of the asylum use puffy thread to make them soft

  • Ok. Where’s the wedding dress made entirely of plastic canvas? That would be an olympic pole vault over the top my dear, and you should consider the gauntlet tossed . . .
