I have MANY projects I have yet to finish.
One of them is my striped wall. I'm almost done, I've got 6 stripes left to paint. And then I'll be possibly aging it all with the Ralph Lauren glaze I have, and used around my front door on the caremel-colored walls. But I'm not sure I'll be doing that... I was considering doing some very faint stenciled characters on the stripes.... but, I don't know if I want to... the stripes are rather nice without them. Plus, my mother-in-law (landlord) may not be so down. So, we'll see. The good thing is, I'm still working on it... ever improving (or of a mind to do so).
The thing I love about decorating/painting is that... I HAVE to do it. Seriously. I get depressed if I can't do anything to my living environment. It makes me happy, though I do indeed realize it's just 'stuff'.
I also have not even finished ONE doll yet. It's my own fault... I put it off, and then started my painting project.
And no teepee yet. So, that might have to be a present for early next year randomness.
But I did find an amazingly cool adjustable dress form at the DI for $35, and saw online that it's worth almost 10 times that.... LOVE IT. So, I've got it all dressed up in the corner of the stripes area... I'll put up a picture. It's got my old fur cape on, with my owl necklace, and a dress I SADLY am a bit too plump to fit into. That dress is now on sale in my etsy shop. We'll see if I sell it.
I'm definitely trying to get these dolls done in time... we'll see. It will probably just be my kids' dolls done. I'll do mine and the hubby's later. I'll post pictures when I'm done, though they're not gonna be that cool for my first doll foray. I'm not as talented a seamstress as a lot of other people, but that's definitely not something stopping me. Level of talent doesn't really matter to me... just that I do it.
OH! And... heavenly dark chocolate treat for the day/week? Le Petit Ecolier, Extra Dark Chocolate.... Ohhhhhh....
