Drea looking beautiful with her new Bow by Blau. It's Karaoke night at The Alley!
Most everyone living in the Bay Area knows that it was extraordinarily windy today. I got on the bus just now and there was an old Black man sitting across from me who said "I don't mean to offend you, but your hair looks like Donald Trump's!"
I almost fell off my seat and rolled around in the aisle. I am still laughing.

(I am bringing his race into it because there is a good chance he feels differently about DT than an old white man.)

Oliver, if you insist on getting in my way when I am trying to craft, I reserve the right to put things on you and take pictures.

I decided my pieces need a back story. So here it is!

I'm Blau, an intergalactic hunter princess. In my travels to alien planets, I came across an enchanted woodland garden, where bows grow on orchids and glitter flows like water. Land mermaids protect it while gathering gems from other parts of their fantasy world. I sought to obtain these treasures by attempting to defeat the land mermaids in battle, but then we realized how much we had in common and became the best of friends. We established an interplanetary trade organization and now they ship some of their baubles to me in exchange for earth flowers and bird feathers, both of which are exotic and prized in their world. It is because of this mutually beneficial relationship that I am able to offer these fascinating pieces to you.

​Please ignore the red bowl, it was the only thing I could find that is approximately the same size as a baby head.

Note to myself for later:
How can I incorporate the words "nevertheless, she persisted" into some of my designs?
Also trying to think of ways to make my floral pieces clearly resemble lady bits...
