WOYWW 441 My Hat

Here we are again, another Wednesday, and sharing it with all the WOYWW'ers out there, and, of course, our instigator Ms Julia, here.

Last week I told you all about my hat I was wearing on Saturday - well, here it is - the full version - lots of pictures, sorry.

bottle & bulb side

Not wanting to wear the hat all day long both Saturday and Sunday (plus Friday night) I made myself an alternative which was a head band with dominoes on (coloured with Oxides and die-cut letters stuck on) and then some silk flowers.  As you can see it was for Remembrance Weekend.  Unfortunately I left it on my worktable at home but this is it

 it looks good when worn

If you want to see some pictures from my weekend showing me dressed up in my hat you need to look at my blog yesterday.  It also has pictures of the two projects we did, one with Andy Skinner and one with Antonis Tzanidakis.  Loved every minute of the weekend.

Now to my desk.  I am making some more samples for my demo on Sunday at Leigh which will be in the Greyhound Hotel on the East Lancs.  I will be showing some different techniques with the Distress Oxides and hope that I manage to get some interest in purchasing them.

That's it folks - (not a lot of writing Julia)

Anaheim and First Project

Well today saw us heading for Anaheim where we are to see what CHA has to offer to the crafting world this coming year.  I didn't have a class today until 6.00 pm and as the show does not open (the floor) until tomorrow there was not a great deal to do.

So we went to Downtown Disney:

these were all taken as we left the Conference Centre

and this was a Banyan tree on the Way To Downtown Disney

The Creole Restaurant in Downtown Disney

Me with The Beast in Lego

Minnie Wa Wa

Ice Cream Face

And now the Project

An Album made with Tammy Tuttrow

We used a preprinted canvas album and added some images using rub ons and then various pieces such as a tape measure, a film strip, words, feathers and lovely ribbon.  There are some charms hanging by the ribbon but I will have to show you them some other time.  

Need to go to sleep now as I have to be "up and at 'em" in the morning - floor to be walked tomorrow!
