Epic Silhouette Holiday Sale & Parody Music Video!

"Cutting in a Crafting Wonderland" Parody Music Video by Lauren from The Thinking Closet | For lovers of their Silhouette machine...as well as those who have one on their wish list.  Here's a lil entertainment for ya in honor of the EPIC Holiday Silhouette Sales running 11/27 - 12/8!  via thinkingcloset.com

Today is the very first day in the EPIC Holiday Sales over at *SilhouetteAmerica.com, and not only am I going to give you a full run-down of all the extra special deals, but I am going to offer you some in-flight entertainment as well.  (Would you expect any less?)

My Silhouette Cameo is my absolute favorite crafting tool of all time.  I’ve created over 60 projects with my machine in just about 2 years, and the inspiration never ends.

I get all amped up about Silhouette’s annual holiday sale because the discounts are so steep, it means more and more of my crafting buddies (like you!) can join me in my Silhouette-ing.  And you actually can join the Silhouette Facebook group I coordinate of over 1,000 craft-lovers; they will blow your mind with their kindness and creativity.  (Join us HERE.)

So, to kick off the big sale today and celebrate Thanksgiving, I thought I’d make you another music video.  Another parody music video all about my love of my Silhouette Cameo.

You see, I’m not above making a complete and utter fool of myself for the sake of bringing you a smile.  Heck, I rather enjoy it!

So, I bring to you my parody of the holiday classic “Walking in a Winter Wonderland,” entitled, “Cutting in a Crafting Wonderland.”

I hope these 2-and-a-half minutes bring you a chuckle on this Thanksgiving weekend.  (Lyrics are listed below the video if you want to sing along.)

Parody Music Video

Cutting in a Crafting Wonderland by Lauren Lanker

Plug her in,
Turn her on,
Load the mat,
Hear a song.
Me and my Silhouette machine,
We make a great team,
Cutting in a crafting wonderland.

Gone away, is the x-acto.
Here to stay, is my Cameo.
Her professional style
It gives me a smile,
Cutting in a crafting wonderland.

Out at Home Goods we can look at pillows
And glean inspiration for our home.
You’ll say, “Should we buy it?”
I’ll say, “Oh no.”
‘Cause you can do the job
When you’re at home.

Baby gifts?
Make some onesies!
Don’t stop there,
Cards are fun-sie!
To make with your art
Gifts straight from the heart–
Cutting in a crafting wonderland.

In the evening we can throw a party,
And set up a photo booth with props (props!).
We’ll have lots of fun with shades and mustache
Knowing that we made them on our own.

Vinyl labels,
Sketch pen place cards,
Fabric flowers,
Glass-etched dishes
Projects for days,
The Silhouette way,
Cutting in a crafting wonderland.

Look at that:
Time to change keys
‘Cause we need
An epic ending.
Me & my Silhouette machine,
We make a great team,
Cutting in a crafting wonderland.
Cutting in a crafting wonderland.
Cutting in a crafting wonderland (yeah!).

I know.  I’m a wackadoodle.  But chances are, if you’re still reading, you’ve probably got some “wackadoodle” in you, too.  And life’s too short not to have a little “wackadoodle” fun, am I right?

  1. First off, I thought I loved ya because of what you did with the Ikea storage solution for your bedroom. But now I know I do because you let me know about the Silhouette Black Friday deal! I’ve been wanting one for a while now and this is just too good a deal to pass up.

    One question though, on the website it says to use the code BLACK to get the deal. If I use the code CLOSET does it benefit you in any way? I still want the deal but if I can help you out at the same time then that’s just an extra bonus.

    One more question and then I really have to get started on the dishes (which seem to be multiplying as I type). How often do you go through blades and mats? Should I buy a couple extra of each while they are on sale or do they last a really long time and I won’t need to replace them for a while?

    1. Aw, you’re too kind, Denise! So happy to know you’ve found some inspiration here at The Thinking Closet. Yes, the Black Friday deals are always the best of the year. To answer your question, the BLACK code will get you the same deals as my CLOSET code – – my code just means I make a small commission for the sale, which will go toward helping to run this site! 😉 So thanks for wanting to help a sister out.

      Yes, I would recommend stocking up on some extra supplies (I always do). I tend to go through maybe 2 mats and 3 blades a year…but I’ve heard varying reports from others. I still think it’s a good idea to always have a spare mat and spare blade, so you’re not in a pinch. And I did a whole post with supplies I recommend for beginners…which you can check out HERE. But a lot depends on the types of crafts you’re hoping to do! So, let me know if you have any specific projects in mind, and I’d be happy to share some specific recommendations!

      Excited for you, Denise!

    1. Kirsten, you are Johnny-on-the-spot! I believe you were one of the FIRST to comment on my parody video last year and you are the first this year! Thanks for being such a fan and fab friend. P.S. I went to Season 52 here in Orlando recently and it made me all nostalgic for our dinner in Atlanta this past summer. Sweet times!
