Yesterdays big woo hoo craft






Bianca was crafting with uncooked pasta noodles and styrofoam cups and tissue paper and I actually made a "vampire" with those ingredients, haha, but she recycled my craft into her "cake". So I started doodling.
I had plans to sew last night since I came up with some new monster doodle at the park while they played....but, I opted for a movie instead which I didn't care for as it turns out.

Voodoo Doughnut Too/Two/2












We went for a ride and thought we'd go to the Voodoo Doughnut downtown, but there was a crazy line so we tried the Voodoo 2 instead. It's pinker and happier. I like it. Some pics.

Outsider Sanity





I love primitive folky art and outsider this and that. I especially love phrases painted on paint. I made my own today. I was starting to stress out about everything and then I got sick of myself and thought Just Suck It Up, ya know?! Stop whining already. Because I have had issues lately :D
But thinking that Suck it up phrase wasn't working so I took it out on paint and wood. Now I am okay. Weirdo.

Cheery


Okay something cheery. I found this in a box from 4 years ago. I sewed this little pig from scraps including Bella's baby sock. It was to be framed, but pretty much all my personal projects never leave the to be stage :D

Voodoo Journey








Haha, I made this voodoo, but he was So Plain Jane that I just had to grunge him up, no matter if I am to bury him for a bit! That's why he won't be for sale. But I am snapping pics of his crazy little trip to becoming a really beat up voodoo. I don't know all the tricks so I am experimenting as I go. I figure he can be the first voodoo to hang from my kitchen ceiling, haha, since my kitchen has a voodoo theme (getting there SLOWLY by the way) ANYWAY, here's Voodoo Guy from start to now... (I haven't got a name yet)
Oh and this is just for fun, okay, I am not any kind of witch, or don't encourage this or that, no evil spell casting conjuring going on around here. Just think of them as stage props :D

First pic, Bianca the 4 year old thinks it's really funny to purposely block the shot....hahaha, real funny before my first cup of coffee... then the voodoo...painted up with watered down acrylics and rolled in dirt hanging from the old fence....cleaned up tossed in the dryer...took a few pics then painted him darker and rolled him in more dirt. He is now hanging outside because it's supposed to rain, I think...

Vove Loodoo






I know the title is spelled wrong but I actually typed that, duh....coffee doesn't seem to have an effect on my anymore.
