Hats Off to Mom

I’ve always credited my creativity to both of my parents, but my mother’s influence over the years has been constant, copious and this project is typical of the kinds of things she made when I was a kid. I found these drawings in a box in her basement.

Birthday Gag Gift

This is a birthday gift idea that everyone may not appreciate, but the more I age, the more I try to find humor in the aging process. Here’s one of my attempts at poking fun at the exercise of aging. And yes, I did mean exercise! Aging isn’t easy, and it entails more work with each passing year.

This lunch box includes some helpful items for that special friend or family member who’s starting down the other side of the bell curve.

Just a Little Monkeying Around

I found this crazy t-shirt on a clearance rack at Bershka. It was the last one they had, but it wasn’t my size. Orange doesn’t happen to be a great color on me either, but that didn’t stop me from buying it, and I am so glad I did. I ended up ironing fusible interfacing to the back of the orange monkey t-shirt, cutting out the monkeys, and sewing them to JW Anderson/Uniqlo linen t-shirts. The resulting three t-shirts are more wearable than the original and surprisingly on-trend for Summer.
