Me rambling about things. My life, atheism, toys, kitsch, books I'm working on, genderqueerness, this and that... Wee!
oatmeal, forest, and rust
I made more macramé yesterday. I love its beautiful Holly Hobbie blue...
And I created a site where I'll be showcasing said macramé, and my zines too: Renouveau 70.
I'm going to make another five pieces or so and then I'll list them on Etsy. It's going to be a bit difficult because every time I create another wall-hanging, I want to keep it!
My mom was very impressed with the one I made for her birthday.
I really, really, really love making macramé. Really. It's good for my brain.
Today, I received my Renouveau 70 market table banner, and it's completely fabulous. The business cards are too; I'll attach them to the pieces and write the price on these cards when I do market stuff.
I got more cords on the way, wine colored, oatmeal, forest, rust...
The peri-menopause hot flashes are back after a brief reprieve, and oy. Last night it was sucking the life out of me, though I did manage to get fairly good sleep somehow.
I got American news—most news—on "mute" these days. I just can't take it. It's debilitating; I get the the point where I can barely function. So I'm ignoring it. With PTSD, life is already hard enough on regular days.
Yesterday, I was feeling anxious, but a little Jack Daniel's and heeeeeeey. Everything was better. Watching the Trailer Park Boys while drinking said Jack Daniel's was also extremely helpful.
In other news, when I vacuum the white shag carpet next to the bed, I practicallly turn into Pepe Le Pew or something. "Ah, let us make beautiful music togezzzer..."
In other other news, I highly recommend eating a Pop Tart in the evening, before going to bed. It's a magical thing.






Yes! I can't wait to see more of your designs!
I've had to start avoiding social media recently too. Just gotta take a step back. My mental health has thanked me. :)
I spent part of the day tinkering with the Renouveau 70 website... More macramé before the week is over!
I'm a whoooole lot more selective nowadays when it comes to social media. And I take a lot of steps back. I give myself time and room, you know? This is an excellent thing.
That blue is amazing. Rust colour? Wooo... I'm waiting for you to bust out the harvest gold (mustard tiger). 💛
Thank you so much! The closest I have to gold so far is jute, with looks like a faded golden yellow... I'll have a better idea once it gets here! I'm really excited about the rust color, I gotta say :-)
Nothing like macramé and a dirty burger, amirite? [grins]
Teehee 💛
Took your advice and am eating a Pop Tart. The back of the box was quite... interesting:
Holy CRAP that is completely amazing!!! Our boxes of Pop Tarts don't have anything this cool on the back!! Seriously, I'd frame that if I had it. awed by the amazingness
This was on the back of the strawberry flavor box! I think it's the latest box design.
Going to be on the lookout for it! Hopefully it's the same here in Canada!!
Oooh I love that blue!
It's gorgeous, isn't it? So soothing to gaze at, I could stare at macramé for hours :-)
