B.Krafty is back! (And OU still sucks)

Hey hey hey!

Hello blogging world, oh how I have missed you! There is so much to catch up on. First and foremost, I have reopened my etsy shop (hooray!) and am back in business. Thank you everyone for your patience! Only out of the game for a little over a month, and I got so many emails that I couldn't stay away any longer.

Next up, COOLERS! Last weekend was the famous Texas vs. Oklahoma Red River Rivalry football game (hook 'em horns!) and with OU weekend comes coolers. I had promised one friend a year in advance that I would paint her TX-OU cooler for her, and seven other girls reached out to me to design theirs as well. Many of them even sent me pictures of some of the coolers they loved that I painted last year, and a few requested similar designs. Let's take a look at these bad boys!

 

The eyes of Texas are upon you!

I hope y'all enjoyed a glimpse of the hard work I put into those beauties. I freehand everything, and I love working in new color schemes. I tend to be a perfectionist, so these coolers were a big time commitment. I am thrilled with the way they came out and even happier about the result of the game! Congratulations to all of the football players and to our coaching staff on the W. Thank you to all of the girls who reached out to me for painting over the past few weeks; I am so glad I could be a part of your OU weekend experience. Hopefully the coolers were a hit!

Love, Bethany

Keep Calm and Diamond On

As Thanksgiving break approaches I am really getting excited about some of the things I have in store! I am going to be painting some coolers for the lovely ladies my mom works with and a friend from high school! So far I think I have an A&M themed cooler, a Saints one, a Texans one, and a family themed one! I can't wait to get started on those!! They are SO much fun to do. I am also going to be painting a few canvases! This is one I did a few weeks ago, but I can't remember if I posted it or not! I love all of the Keep Calm signs. This one is for Alpha Delta Pi!

More posts soon. Homeward bound tomorrow! Can't wait to be with the fam. 

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone, and look out for some exciting posts soon!

The Eyes of Texas are upon yOU..

So last week was simply WILD. We initially had our big/little paddles due for Theta on Thursday, so everyone was stressing about getting them done and making them look perfect! Luckily our new member director changed the due date for that to this Thursday!! (I'll upload my paddle I made for Grace as soon as the sees it!) The big thing for underclassmen do for Texas/OU weekend -especially freshmen- is cooler painting. I think I might have slept for 8 hours total last week slaving over these babies, but here is what all that hard work amounted to!

 

 The OU game is our biggest event of the football season, and the boys ask dates to go with them. It's really a fun experience because you have the game AND the state fair! Since we didn't exactly do too well in the game, most of us went to the fair. It was AWESOME! Everything was packed, and I ran into literally so many people that there was no way it couldn't be fun.

 ^ My honorary little sisters Chloe and Paige! They are the sweetest girls I know. We went on some rides together at the fair!

 ^One of my favorite people in Theta!! I'm going to miss her next year!!


Hook 'em.
