This is a totally random post. (My favorite kind.)
Someone asked where I got the oilcloth from for the sassy cleaning gloves. I got it from Ebay. The seller is Tiffany & her shop is called Pink Elephants. It's gorgeously vintage-like & yummy to work with. I needed it speedy for last minute Christmas gifts (I was literally up until 2am Christmas morning making 5 sets of gloves!) & she sent it very quickly.
I forgot to reveal the outcome of the whole Christmas Present Scenario. Remember how I mentioned that we got my 4 year old that big dog, Biscuit, & my 6 year old a big Barbie-style dollhouse? And how before Christmas it was the 6 year old who wouldn't stop talking about Biscuit? (She even woke up telling me about dreams she'd had of her & Biscuit. **cringe**) Well, Christmas morning went on flawlessly, with just a SLIGHT bump before presents were opened. Mr. WhiMSy love was extremely concerned that our 6 year old would be upset about not getting Biscuit. So, he left HUGE hints letting her know that she was not getting the dog. (Ouch, I know. He's a blurter. I would've done it differently.) She is giddy about her dollhouse though--- & even gets to play with her sister's new dog sometimes. She got the best of both worlds.
I was asked about my 365 DAYS self portrait thingie. My self portraits can be seen HERE. There's even a feed at the bottom of that link if you wanted to subscribe to my 365 DAYS set.
I started back into my workout routine today. It was SO hard to get motivated. But I enjoyed afterwards---when I realized that I would be alone & have some peace & quiet for the first time in FOREVERS. I even had time to sneak into my favorite antique mall & purchase some vintage fabric & buttons & rik-rak. It's my weakness.
I HAVE to share THIS SONG by the Animal Liberation Orchestra. Maybe it'll only be me who thinks it's funny. It is SO Mr. WhiMSy love & I. Every time he comes home from the gym he goes through the same routine--obsessed if I can tell a difference in his chest. Are all guys like this? (Song title: Do You Like My Pecs?)
It's been very quiet in WhiMSy blogland...Hope you're having a swell week!!
Thanks for letting me know where the oilcloth can be had. (Now I need to save money - post-Christmas craft budget - sheesh!)
ReplyDeleteHow weird that I was thinking about what you did with Biscuit/Barbie House today while making some soup. I don't know why I was thinking about it but I was going to drop you a comment to ask... And then I saw your post! Question answered. I think I may order a valentine owlie too...
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear Christmas morning went well. Are you allowed to play in the Barbie house too?
ReplyDeleteOh I'm glad you posted about the portraits!! When I got off the plane in Florida there was a girl waiting for someone that I could have sworn was you! I almost said something to her! It was freaky. You have a twin in orlando!!

Your self portraits are cool! I'm doing the 365 days (you can see them at www.coleybelle365.wordpress.com if you want) as well but not self portraits - just things/people in my life. Maybe I should do all self portraits next year....
