We had a scarecrow-building contest at work this week. Of course I was last-minute-Larry and my team waited until the last minute to get it together.
But we did…and we rocked it. It felt good to be creative. With some help from Thom {thanks!} we built the Arachnid Queen with a pillow, some raffia, and an old bridesmaid dress that has been in my closet for forever.
The dress is Alfred Angelo. The jewelry: custom made by my friend and coworker Laurel. Boa, crown and wig by Dollar General. And, she’s ready for her close-up
We won the contest. It felt good. Competition felt good. The anticipation of victory and the even dreaded feeling of a possible loss felt good.
So…it’s NaBloPoMo time again. As you can tell from this post I’m already not feeling it. But I will soldier on and hopefully these posts will get better.
My friend convinced me to do the nablopomo, I am concerned it will blow… big time. 🙂 Anywho… would you like to be on my "blogroll" ? 🙂
