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...
Today, I was digging in my linen closet for some hand towels and came across this monkey towel that I had forgotten about. There are actually two of them. After hanging them in the bathroom, I decided that they needed some company. So, using an old 16 x 20 canvas that was laying around, I proceeded to paint the monkey design freehand. It isn't exactly like the towels, but it turned out really cute. The bathroom where they will be residing has big blank walls and the bright colors should make it more fun. Besides, who doesn't love monkeys, they are so cute and funny! Everyone needs a bit of whimsy in their decor, who wants to be serious all of the time. :)
