it’s the weekly monday post

Friday was busy!! So Wednesday last week I pulled out Belle to double check everything - it needed some roses replaced and some of the appliques sewn back on. And I needed to restyle the wig since I took it down for Dorothy. Then Friday I came straight home from work and started getting ready. I experimented a little bit - I actually wore both my panniers and my round ...

This past weekend, Chase went east to see some friends, and I went to have a Mema weekend! Yay! Saturday we went shopping and hit up one of the closing Hancock Fabrics up there. Right after we left I saw the news on my phone that the rest of the Hancock locations will be closing. I'm so distraught, I can't even talk about it, Hancock has been our go-to store ...

Building a shelf

So this past weekend after Christmas, Chase and I finally got the ikea shelf put together - we bought when we were in Atlanta for Dragoncon and the four massive boxes have been sitting in our hallway ever since, driving me crazy. It was a butt to put together. Throughout the week we've been working on it in the evenings. Yesterday I finished the big hurdle of clearing out the ...

It was super hot, I had to take several breaks to take the cowl off and cool down. I was never ...
