This was supposed to be the real-life representation of the Ballerina costume, but it became its own story.
After disappearing from the ballroom, the ballerina now appears in a rose-filled garden, gold-and-ruby petals scattered all around her. She is born from the roses. She is born anew.
The entire costume is hand-made, I did not have a sewing machine, but I do believe it came out better than I expected.
Credits to my one of my wonderful friends, who took these pictures and brought them to life.
We have reached the end of grapefruit season here -- last month there were Texas grapefruits busting out of the produce section at the grocery store, but this month they are being replaced by strawberries ... from California.
Now we'll have to wait for peach season so we can buy Texas-grown fruit again.
This months package consisted of 11 items, covering schwag from Movable Type, Rubyred Labs, Technorati, Goatse Sighting, EFF, Feed Burner and abazap. I also got some really cool catster and dogster badges :-)
Scanned a 7" single (How Was It For You by James) recoloured the label then created my own titles and info. The "45 Pages" bit is in place of the speed, I'll put the actual page count on the final version.
Long dramatic gunmetal jet black crystal and ruby red dangle earrings.
I beaded these earrings using Czech glass crystals in jet black with AB (aurora borealis) finish and small ruby red Swarovski crystals also with AB finish. Antiqued silver bead caps compliment the dark gunmetal finish on the earring wires nicely.
Long kidney shaped gunmetal earring wires add to the dramatic look of these earrings.
Preliminary calculations indicate that a carton from the store yields more juice per $ than actually buying the fruit and squeezing them on your own. I don't understand.
