a little self-portrait loving....


i was thinking it might be kinda funny to do a photo display in the bathroom of all my family and friends (self-portraits of them)...ron wonder why the bathroom... why else.... something funny to look at while you well.... you know....
here's my attempt.... (yes, it is a self portrait using the mirror)
of course i would like them to be funny faces and stuff... so start practicing so you make it on the shrine...

art is good!


i made these fun canvases for our bedroom the other day... i can't take credit... the idea is from SIStv... but i love how they turned out.... just 10x10 canveses, painted the edges black, glued patterned paper to the front and then brushed a touch of black paint on the paper for a distressed look. voila!
the paper is so yummy... it is Amy Butler by K and Co.
As soon as i bought it i knew i had to display this paper in my house some way.
hope you like!

and they all said i was the mean sister!

they did...it's true...however i put flattering pics of my mother on my blog... while my sister puts ugly ones on her's... then she goes an uploads a pic of me with my mullet....cruel, simply cruel!
it was the freaking 80's and i was punk rock and everyone of my friends wanted to do their hair like me but their parents wouldn't let them...... i was a free spirit and didn't care when guys at the groccery store called me son....
so kacy.... you just wait.... i know there are some fugly pics of you out there and i will make sure to share them with the blogworld as they are discovered!

the boley girls!




these are my mom and her sisters (minus laurie)... i have always loved this pic and so has my mom, unfortunatly she had it hanging in the kitchen for years and it got covered in kitchen grease..... i am trying to clean it up in photoshop.... any one have some expereicnce with old pics.... how can i make it look newer.... i cloned out the spots but patty's face (the little one) looks a littled f-ed up...kinda like she has downs or something.... but it still looks better than the original....
