Tulip season! Tulips are my favorite flowers. AND I found the perfect vase for them from CB2. They are on sale, snap them up! Really perfect.
Green & White Abundance. I mentioned my love of flowers and flower arranging on my Joy List. Here’s this week’s find. The only source in my neighborhood is a giant grocery chain. Lately there’s tons of super garish bouquets. Like gross, fakey garish. Today I nabbed the last white hydrangeas and a nice big bouquet of greens. They nearly never have greens. The photo doesn’t do these justice. It feels all lush and overgrown and full of possibility. *I* feel lush and overgrown and full of possibility.
Think Spring! Wuh? Thrilled to wear this dress last Sunday. I bought the pink denim yeeeears ago. Cut and started the dress 02.28.09. Starting drawing. Markers ran dry. Picked it back up with new markers a year later. Finished drawing. Set it down for several months and finally sewed it together the end of July. Posting it mid-September. *shrug* That’s the way it goes sometimes. Most importantly, it’s DONE and wearable!
First inspired by Andy Warhol’s early illustrations, I drew on the denim with Marvy Broad Points, DecoFabric Opaque marker in white and the thin lines are a black Identipen.
This was the first dress I put slash pockets in. It was a little futzy to do, but well worth it.
I absolutely love wearing these dresses I make. I’m a walking canvas. If you’ve been thinking of decorating your existing clothes or sewing your own, go for it!
