Field of Dandelions

I had so much fun making this bag for a school assignment.
It is easy enough for anyone to make. 

1.I carved my own design from a linoleum block, which you can buy at craft stores

2. I dyed a canvas bag with hot pink fabric dye

3. I dipped my carved linoleum block in fabric paint like a stamp, and stamped the bag where I wanted

4. I used a hair dryer to steam the newly stamped designs to set them into the bag. 

5. I let everything dry and now I have a unique bag that fits just about anything!







What's special about making this bag is everything is unique and original,
Original design on stamp
Hand carved block
Hand dyed Bag 

And I love the vintage look of the black ink.

Cash



I Love Johnny Cash as a musician, Lyricist, and Man.

His story is just as interesting as his music
His songs tell the story of his journey and each song changes and grows as he did. 
I am especially a fan of the songs he produced in his later years. Tales of redemption, giving himself to god, and reflecting on his past. 

The Look:
Classic American
True Grit Influence
The dirty south
1930's Farm
Modern Day cowboy
Country
Rock
Soul


These are a few of my own illustrations/designs, I did inspired by him and his music.

Dream on





I love my new scarf!
I found this at Marshall's and I had to get it.
It's a light polyester 
And the print is pretty a pink/purple, cheetah print, with a floral design at the bottom.
All good things for spring/summer.


I feel very Steven Tyler/Rock and Roll in this scarf=)

The Ocean Breeze is Salty

Hello.
Today I wore my bird printed romper to class.
Its hard to find ones long enough for my figure but this one fit very well. 
I bought it from Marshall's a few weeks ago. 


How I wore it...
The neckline is very flattering and is interesting with the cut out detail.
I paired it with a dark brown belt
and powder pink ballet flats.

Happy Easter



Happy Easter!
This weekend my family came to visit. We did touristy things all weekend including a duck tour around the beach area and islands. 
It was a beautiful day.
