The best job ever and the coolest friends that I ever had were when I worked at a restaurant called the Heartthrob Cafe. It was in downtown St Paul, Minnesota and was so fun! Today we had a get together to catch up and reminisce. This is one of the many good things about facebook, finding people that you wished you never lost contact with. So, today my post is the buttons that I made for this event. We had 'flair' that was a lot more fun and cool than a restaurant chain that I will not name here. We danced and sang birthday songs. The girls wore poodle skirts and we did all of this while wearing in line skates. We were a crazy family and honestly this was one of the best times in my life. Ahhh...memories. In the time spent there somehow the button machine came into my possession. In honor of our gathering, of course I had to make pins. Here are also two murals that I painted at the restaurant. Let me tell you they were tricky! The murals are on glass and when
This is something that I have had for a while and had forgotten about it. It was from the Goodwill originally and it was gold. I had painted it last fall or summer and stuck it in a cupboard. This is one of those projects that didn't turn out to my liking at first. The purple, blue and gold are a great combination, but it just did not look right. A few nights ago I rediscovered the tray and painted it in this beautiful powder blue shade. The color for the edge was just an experiment, but it really complimented the blue. The final design element was the patterns that are painted in white. It is very simple but pretty. It is now on my bathroom counter displaying lotion, soap and other miscellaneous objects.
