Melissa and Esther wanted me to make them hooter hiders (or titty tents). I picked a blue/green tie dye for Mel Mel and blue and brown spots for Esther. What do you think?

Idea for cabinets

I'm thinking of this kind of a glaze for the cabinets in Dawn's kitchen. The color is going to be more of a yellow, but I'm thinking of a kind of brown for the glaze to make the flowers on the doors pop.

Headbands

I made up a pattern for a headband. Jenn was my willing model.



I saw this big orange button and instantly thought of her.



Here's the side view with the button.

Sunken Pool

We painted our room, the color is called "Sunken Pool". I really like it.
And, yesterday, we took the popcorn off Cali's ceiling.
