New hoop skirt

I have remade my hoop skirt, still not sure if I'm going to add a Second ruffle or not. I haven't shown in this photo over a bustle so it gives that full 1860s antebellum look. Soon I'll have some ready-made course it's in the shop as well as petticoats and dresses so keep your eye out. Misschastains.etsy.com

New dress form

I'm so happy I order a ne dress form a few days ago. To my happy surprise it arrived today three days earlier than what shipping said!! It's great getting the new equipment to really follow my passion and do the things I love. There is nothing like the right kind of form when doing drapping work. But as I look at my new form I'm unsure what to call her, you yes I like to name my dress form so that I can talk to her as I do my work. But the right name hasn't come to me just as of yet. So here she is I can't wait till I start a new drap!!

Turning 30

Today is a bit of a hard day, it's a dear friends 30th birthday I should be able to share this with him, but because of his addiction I can't. Who is there for me so much when we were teenagers my closest friend my true confidant. And the fact that I haven't been able to share any of the good things going on in my life from really my wedding to a job promotion to my husband and I buying a home, my 30th birthday last month these are the hardest things about that. For me my 30th birthday was a very happy time I know a lot of people take it hard. But for me it was a sigh relief, you see when I was younger involved in a genetics study. With my brothers who have ADHD and mental illness during this genetic study the question was asked what does this all mean for me they have the markers so do I, what we were told that we cross our fingers and Tom a teenager, and if nothing at that time cross I'm still in Tom about 30 and then will know I'm not going to have the same issue. Not by all right that doesn't mean I don't have issues you grow up with crazy and you end up with issues mostly trusted anxiety but not the same as everything else. It's sad that the person that was there for me when my brothers were at the craziest chose to become an addict is out of my life and I can't share any of my good things with now and I miss him terribly I only hope that one day he'll get clean but the friend I had always be Gone no matter what. It's this that kills me see there's a part of me that feels like I let him down, missed his problems while he was helping me survive mine now he's lost and there's nothing I can do.

New line

So I have paired with adobewellnessacademy.com so create a unique one-of-a-kind jewelry out of 100% cotton. They were really a lot of fun to make, I love working with the natural fibers. There is just something about it that's adds a little peace I find. All of the jewelry is one of a kind and completely unique. Not only is the natural fibers easy to care for they are easy to wear and very light weight. I find that collaboration, is a great way to grow beyond oneself. So this line you will find not on my etsy shop but at adobewellnessacademy.com here is some of the Collection, so go take a look and see what else is there as well
