A Christmas Carol.

This past weekend we were fortunate enough to experience one of the best plays we've seen as a family to date (and us Hudson's have been to our fair share of English panto's). My coworker planned a field trip for her art kids to see A Christmas Carol at the Dallas theatre and my family and I were able to tag along. Unbeknownst to me, the Dallas theatre is a one of a kind vertical theatre. Meaning, the play is performed on three different floors with an intimate atmosphere and an extremely interactive cast. It was beautifully directed and acted. It was the perfect way to kick off our holiday season here in Texas.

Clear Aligners!

It's been a while since I've posted on here, but I am so excited to bring you along for this exciting new adventure! If you know me at all, you know that my teeth are pretty crooked. (Blame it on my English roots) They always have been, and I watched as my high school friends upgraded their smiles with shiny new braces. But I never wanted train tracks. If that was the option, I was resigned to the state of my smile. Then came Invisalign. A revolutionary idea to use clear plastic to align the teeth. No doubt you've seen, or heard, or even been blessed with them yourself. Dr. Morgan uses the same technology but a different product called SureSmile . Since I've been taking patient photos for Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry for a little over a year I've been blown away by the smiles in that office. I didn't think twice about my teeth until I started photographing their gorgeous patients. The friendliness of the staff just makes all their smiles th...

Deep Diamond Tufting.

I'm not sure why I wanted to make a tufted headboard. Maybe I saw one in a film or something but before too long I was combing through every tutorial or YouTube video I could find about it. That was a year ago. So this weekend I put my big girl panties on and summoned the courage to finally build my headboard. My favorite tutorials found here , and here . Mine certainly won't be as good as theirs so I'll keep it brief. I think my total for all materials came to around $85 but then again my math is horrible so... Make sure you take advantage of JoAnn's incredible sales. I think I saved $60 dollars when I went. I scored on my fabric too, only $9 a yard. The most annoying part of this process, as all blogs stated, was the buttons. And I'd have to agree with them. They were so small. The fabric was so thick. The little tool that pushes the button together sucks so... with Mummy's help, my solution was pliers. Just use pliers. It will save your finger...

Animals For Days. [Part I]

This is an extremely delayed post, but I wanted to wait until some of the pieces got fired so I could show you the finished results. These high school kids really blew me away with their creativity. All these pieces are made from two pinch pots so they are all completely hollow. The students came up with their own design for the animal and after I taught them how to create a hollow 'egg' shape they added all the features. I also couldn't get enough of all the minions. They were the cutest things. More pictures to follow. K
