Today's Line-up

Here's who's greeting me this morning-

Most of them just want final details, but Skelly Lady (who is currently sans head) in the back is insisting upon a bow-tied beau. I'm on track to have them all done by Sunday.

Meanwhile, our car broke (again) and we've finally resigned ourselves to the fact that the old girl has to be put out to pasture. It's not so bad not having a car most days. Dylan rides his electric bike all over the place. But sometimes I'd like to leave the house too. Wish us luck finding a new-to-us set of wheels. We both hate car shopping. It would be much more fun if we were rich instead of so damn good looking ;) So far we haven't found anyone willing to trade a car for pumpkin heads.

Today's Table (In the Works)

A bunch of ready-to-go stuff is sitting on the table this morning, waiting to be tucked safely into their cardboard vessels and launched out into the world. (They actually have brethren that are already packed away for their voyages, but Dylan ran out of packing supplies so he's at the store right now rounding up some more.)

I've been happily working on a bunch of new designs too.

My brain is kinda all over the place. So many ideas! I keep wanting to start more and more and more. . .but then the whole self-discipline thing kicks in so I make myself finish what I've started before moving on. I have unwritten rules that I try to stick with (like, no more than 10 unfinished new pieces at a time) in order to maintain some sort of control over the creative beast that lives within.

Something-New Sunday

I've got that Oingo Boingo song from the 80s stuck in my head. Know the one I'm talking about? Anyway, here's why-

 It's a toothy rainbow of skellies! We had fabric made from those skelly designs that I made a couple of weeks ago. Then we took that fabric and cut it and sewed it and stuffed it and added arms and legs and a little loop and. . . Ta-dah!

It's a party!

I've been hanging them all over the house. They're quite friendly.
