wow! thank you for everyone who stopped by and left me a comment of my dress. it was a fun project from beginning to end, not to mention the wearability of it. i intend to make more dresses and a few other clothing items for myself before the summer ends. after that, my sister is waiting for something from me, she's expecting a baby girl later this year and i want to give her a package filled with handmade goodies!

we did a bit of house improvement this weekend, though. the place we'll be moving into needed a bit of work, we painted the craft room to be. this was what the room looks like before. i only had one thought in my head when i saw it: what were they thinking, i really wanted to know. anyway, painting is still in progress, so you'll have to wait a little for the after pictures.

needless to say, we'll be busy packing and unpacking for the next couple weeks. meanwhile, i shall indulge you in some of my oilily collection. thanks to hege, i was exposed to the wonderful world of colors a few years ago. since then, there was no turning back.
