My house is called "Simplicity Cottage," and it's located in the middle of some peaceful woods. I've really been working towards having less physical stuff in my life, so I only used the contents in my wallet that made me feel at peace. This included a Westchester Parks ID card, the college ID where I met my husband, the library card where I read with my daughter, and some floral stamps. What's more telling is what didn't make it: money, my business cards, credit cards, insurance cards, MTA cards - all the elements of my life that keep me moving somewhat faster than I'd probably like to be.
First pic is cottage, second shows all the other stuff...
... took suggestions on lighting from "Mistur " (thanks so much) and had a positive outcome - NO PHOTOSHOP on this image! I have never quite seen a tulip open quite like this one, you may see future images of the same flower ;)

I sort of like that blue plaid one. I think I saw it once on a "Bonanza" rerun.
My mother's wedding dress was made from a pattern similar to this, but hers had full lace sleeves instead of fitted ones.
MISSES’ PLAY SHORTS, MIDRIFF TOP AND SKIRT:
A “Mother and Daughter Fashion”. For “Daughter” see Simplicity 1620. The shorts, styles with a side pocket, are gathered at upper edge and joined to a waist band. The lower edges are gathered and bound, and there is a small opening and ties into a bow. The midriff, gathered at the lower edge and joined to a band, has raglan sleeves and a neckline casing. The skirt is gathered to a waist band.

I’m feeling a little drained this week so I opted for a simple portrait for this weekly project. And I keep having to remind myself that is okay. The purpose of this project is to exist in photos. They don’t always have to be extravagant and skillfully edited. Sometimes they can be simple. Stay tuned to see what’s in store for next week.

I made the wrap version, with the short sleeves and the belt.
The fabric is a cotton voile from Westminster Fibers, in a colorway that is ideal for someone with three black and white dogs.
I thought the fabric would be too sheer to wear without a slip or lining but it turns it's absolutely fine without, which is great. This a perfect summer dress.
So, sorry this photo isn't all that great, but I felt the need to upload something. It's certainly been a while, and I feel bad, but it's just that I'm so lazy and I haven't been wanting to take pictures or make videos or anything. Hopefully once summer is here (nine more days!), I'll get back into my routine. Until then, I shall continue to be lethargic.
Just simply a piece of string and yet we can do so much with it . Put away all the fancy gadgets . . . a piece of string works in the workshop, garden, and kitchen.

"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" - Leonardo Da Vinci
Assignment 52 group - week 39 - Notable Quotes
A bit different to my normal style of photography (whatever that might be). Shot at golden hour and you can see the sun shining on the pavement at top left.
Definitely press L to view this best!
This is Simplicity 2584 - View B, without the neckline applique. I've used the beautiful Zin Berry Red linen from Tessuti - I bought mine online and it's still available here

Again, another image-only pattern fudging procedure. But dude, crinolines are super easy to whip up. I almost bought a contemporary pattern during one of those 99¢ sales, but it was all just a bunch of rectangular shaped pattern pieces. Seemed a waste.

originally taken for DPS "black and white nature" but decided to hold on to it for "black and white, high contrast"
Does anyone have this pattern? I'm thinking of buying it, but would like to know if anyone has already made something from it--and how good/bad the pattern was.
guys check out my recent favorites! i've just found this great new style of photography, it was kinda strange, with strange concept and strange set up and, even stranger editing. I was surfing through the photo owner's connected accounts then I realized so many people had done this kind. I had thought to myself, oh my god wtf is this why is everyone doing it why am I the only didn't know anything about this yada yada yada but then I found out that it's an actual category called surrealism.
It's cool to know though. Human creativity, as its finest. And mannnnn I'd love to learn how they photoshopped the pictures that way.
