I can’t remember how this project came to be. I do remember thinking the felt remnants left over from a previous blog, Marimekko Moment, reminded me of Evil Eyes every time I came across them rummaging through my fabric basket. The creativity was inspired by the supplies I had on hand. I bought the felt wallets on Amazon (I searched “felt pencil cases” to find them), and my friend Bee gave me my tagline, “Let Me Watch Your Money Honey.” I embroidered embellishments on the felt eyes and attached beads, buttons, and studs before gluing them to the wallets with Alene’s Tacky Glue.
The holiday season is here, and Winter weather is settling in for many of us. The cooler weather and the thoughts of upcoming celebrations lead many of us to think about sinfully scrumptious foods that warm our hearts and souls. My favorite dishes, bread stuffing, bread pudding, my Dad’s oven-baked applesauce, and green bean casserole, bring back memories of family celebrations and make me pull out my most treasured casserole dishes to begin planning. Yes, just like I pick my outfits based on what shoes I want to wear, serving dishes often dictate the holiday menu at our house. I consider myself a foodie, so the right menu is essential, but I am first and foremost a visual creative, and how a meal looks and is served is at least fifty percent of my holiday experience. I also enjoy when form and function come together beautifully, and this project ticked all those boxes.
