Project day!



It's been go-go-go-go here with work and the like, so the fun projects were put on hold. I had an unexpected day off today, and my head said "Work on your portfolio! Take care of the animals! Clean the house!" and some other, less responsible part said "No! MAKE STUFF!" Actually, it's *sorta* responsible since these projects do have a deadline ... there's a performance coming up and I'll need to match everyone else and have these costumes together. Also, the pieces of these projects are all over the house, and it would be nice to put it all away, which can't happen until they're finished.
So here they are ...
First is the nearly-finished "belly drape" that goes underneath the coin bra. I just need to punch holes in a bunch of coins so all that bare chain is dripping in coins.
And then there is a hip scarf... originally a pillow case, it was cut in half, then embellished to match my blue skirt. It's getting close ... but I think it needs more. Other girls have lots of coin belts and the like to really dress it up, but those things are EXPENSIVE and I think that I can punch holes in a bunch of pennies and link them together in some interesting manner. Sounds like a lot of work though! Maybe I can come up with something else.
