BReNDA aka pretty pink tiara who wants to live in a pink house. i say just paint the mutha PINK. remember john mellencamps pink house contest?

i wonder what happened to that house??? song facts says this

MTV ran a contest based on this song where they gave away a Pink House. Unfortunately, the house was on a toxic waste dump in Indiana. Mellencamp did not want to poison his fans, so he refused to let them give it away. MTV ended up buying another house and painting it pink for the contest. The winner moved in for 2 days before selling it. Mellencamp is good friends with John Sykes, who was working at MTV at the time and now runs VH1

ANYHOW CONGrATS TO BRENDA girl send me your snail mail address foundthings AT cfl DOT rr . com

here are some bags i did months ago...freeform crochet on rug hook canvas.
freeform crochet
i seen prudence & some of the freeform gang on uncommon threads and finally realized i had hoarded enough canvas to do many many bags-i just need fiber as i normally used them for making rag rugs. i had resisted for SOOOO long to not buy fiber. i have to many loves to start another lust. i gave to temptation though i now have lots of LUSH (lust for) fiber. its a good waiting while "watching" the kiddo tae kwon do thing to do.

i scored this HUUUUUGE bag(a comforter size) of vintage yarn allllll delish in retro colors....it sat forever in my garage as it was originally meant for kerry's sister in the islands but it has sat there for years because no one has been able to take it to her and its ridiculous to send!!! plus she'd never see it-it would get stolen in a heartbeat as she doesn't have a box and it would be general delivery,not to mention she lives 2 hours from the post. soooo finally i decided i would just USE it!!! these colors totally inspired me and in the process of cleaning one of my fabric carts i found this pile of fabrics that were in the same scheme!!! oooooo talk about meant to be!!!

its been a month or so since i've made a dashiki...so saturday it all came together & i wore it to church....well not the scarf it wasn't cold enough!

closeup
i even found a necklace that i haven't wore in forever and it matched perfectly!!
