Ol' Sport.


I'd have to say my first experience with Prom was pretty fabulous and having a theme of Great Gatsby certainly didn't hurt. My teacher friend Cara and I volunteered to be chaperones and since she's the theatre teacher and I'm an art teacher it seemed only appropriate to go all out.
It took us months to assemble the pieces to our 20's flapper costumes. A special shout-out to Mrs. Novy for doing our hair an hour before the kids arrived and to Dillards for having an amazing selection of 20's inspired dresses. It was such a fun evening getting to dress up and being the 'Who Wore It Best' dress crew. They did such a fab job of creating the Gatsby theme and I think the kids really enjoyed it, and if they didn't I know there's three women who certainly did.

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

The Stinnett's.

I absolutely loved taking photographs of the Stinnett family. There were certainly lots of laughs along the way, which made my job easier. A few melt downs (those trains will get you all the time), but nothing this sweet family couldn't recover from. They're such a fun, silly lot and it was my pleasure to capture some moments for them.  [All photos taken on the Canon Rebel T3i] For questions about sessions and pricing, message me on Facebook, or email at katie.e.hudson@gmail.com.
