FLAVINARDO

The big day was last weekend. The whole thing went off without a hitch, ending in a hitch. Flowers and Feasts made by friends, tent communities, freeman karaoke,and a beautiful dress by Ms. Annie Lee Larson. There were so many hands involved in this wedding, but only two left with new rings.

We finished putting in the floors.
We got to the final keystone section and noticed that something was missing. I found that something in a patch of grass outside. Our wishes were written in sweat and blood on a tiny piece of paper, in a tiny envelope, fashioned by tiny hands. We secured the last little section floor containing some good luck for the tenant of this space.

Bing bong ding dong!!! That is the sound of wedding bells!!!
Ahhhhh the smell of true love is in the air.. Erin Flavin and James Leonardo are joining forces through matrimony in the coming month.

Flavinardo have asked me to make a couple of wedding bands,an honor that has left me honored.

I've been given two maternal rings. Not to get too poetic, but I plan to melt these two metals together to form the new bands. The diamond setting on Erin's mothers' ring has already been sawn out and preserved, leaving a trace of the old ring on the new.. I'll post photo's as soon as I finish them.

Here's wishing a bright future for these two lovebirds.

Hey! It's cushion time! Are you sitting there wondering "hmmm... I wonder which one is before, and which is after?"
Well, let me clue you in.. I'm not into flowers, UNLESS they are on a bed, a garden bed.

These pillows are stacking up in the hallway. Whatever free time is left (i.e. waking up too early, going to sleep too late)is spent ripping seams and sewing through my finger.. It will feel so nice to get all these done.. But that floor installation is calling!

after

that chair was so gross to fix. I have a new layer of disintegrated foam flesh now.
Now there are only 12 cushions to go..

This poor thing has been through two cats.
