Some things I have going on in the back of my brain.
I saw this AweSoME(!) video from EnKore Makeup on YouTube re: making your own (Hello Kitty) MAC palette so I got some board from Michael's, some pink sparkle foam and some really cute embellishing paper. I have no idea how to cut the board. I thought I could do it with an x-acto knife, but not so much. After cutting the board, it should be all downhill.
I have been thinking about making bath bombs for the holidays to give out and share. I think you make them with Citric Acid and baking soda. And whatever fragrance oil you would like to add. I have been LOVING LUSH. I dropped about $80 there and was dreaming all week about a super soft, super relaxing bath with a Vanilla Fountain. I had the roughest week at work and couldn't wait to get that bag o' goodies home to the tub.
Anyway, it'd be nice to share that joy with others. It made the water feel like liquid velvet. Soooo smooth, sooooo soft. Not sticky or greasy though.
I'm also still wrapping up my Jack's Mannequin swap package. I made a tshirt that says
"big hearts
are for breaking" with a rainbow/gradient(?) piano. It was a new technique for me. I made a bookmark (talked about that already) and a piano bamboo tile bracelet. I've probably made 4 of those for swaps, and counting. I also decoupaged a vintage LA postcard to say, "Fuck Yeah! We could live like this!" with a bunch of other little quotes and colorful additions. I'm thinking of mounting it on a canvas but I'm probably not that motivated.
