DevArt Valentines

So, I saw there was this new feature on DevArt with Valentines, n I tried to make a morbid valentine with their on-site program artsy thingy, and NOTHING happened... I also found it frustrating...

But, my daughter figured it out, n scolded me for being dumb & lazy... :-/
Hey! I worked a lot on that dumb thing! Not my fault DevArt didn't let u do it on their own programs...

So, she made me MAKE ONE FOR HER.

So, I made this ULTRA SIMPLE one... since she robbed my WACOM again!!!!

It stinx, but people ACTUALLY LOOKED AT IT, USED IT, and FAV'ed it! WTF?

Boho Chic-ness Inspirations...

I've done stuff before that was very BOHO Chic inspired, etc...

I've been working on some knitting stuff since about may/June, and I need to redo the stuff all over...



So, I gotta take it apart... and rework it.

I finally got this necklace done... sort-of... but, now I think it might be better with a different chian, or better yet as a belt....



I'm trying to shoot for something more along THIS sort of vibe:

But, we'll see... I also have a number of projects to start or finish, and other things that need being done...

NJ BBQ Picnic Party Decor

As you may know, my father had a big Pig Roast BBQ Picnic Party this year in New Jersey.
I helped out quite a bit.

I worked pretty much the whole day just doing chores. This was all accomplished by the evening, which was when I shot these.

This is "the kids' table" which got moved further out when the waterslide was set-up.
It has bubbles for the kids to play with. ^_^

ALL of the cahirs you see were hand washed by me.

My father is on the side, if you look really hard, doing several racks of ribs in a smoker.

The portable fireplace was set-up.

A view of the greenhouse and a corner of the garden from the table I cleaned.

I worked really long & hard to get this table clean. It was filthy and covered in years of crud.

And the only thing next is the actual roasting of the pig, and the party.
