frank's frocks

since im a sucker for alliteration, to go along with liz's laundry, i reopened my etsy shop under the name frank's frocks!  click the link or go to the tab above for a preview!  i will be adding more things so stay tuned.  also i will be reloading some of my handmade jewelry items.  which obviously frank has nothing to do with.  but he does seem to like sparkles as much as i do...

goodwilly goodness

i decided to take a self-rewarding trip to goodwill after work one night.  not cos i really did anything in particular to deserve it...  but ive been doing better at staying within my budget, finishing more little sewing projects, and not complaining about work.  so damnit i earned it.  anyway.  [click on any pic to enlarge but since they were taken on my phone, be forewarned they may be blurry]

a gaudy ribbon shirt that may become a pencil skirt, a liz claiborne [sucker for those] dress with awesome paisley print, a polyester skater dress, a silk top that will be cut apart and somehow those epaulet straps will remain.  still thinking about that one.

liz's laundry

• skirt: thrifted
• leggings: charlotte russe
• turtle necklace: street fair

sit and stay awhile

i gots me a new chair!  and by new i mean.. i found it by the dumpster and wiped it down with copious amounts of lysol.  obviously its a bit worn and the bottom rungs were actually falling apart.  but my bashing skills came in handy and i forced the crossbrace back in place.  some day i will sand off the rather ugly finish and either leave it bare [varnished] wood or paint it a funky color.
