MY WEEK

Oh it was busy alright. When you are trying to get caught up before going on a vacation it almost seems not worth it....

Nah.....never mind. That's crazy talk right?

I haven't really posted much about this project except for showing you the vintage map of Atlanta [1888] I recently bought at Scott's.

Here are some of the fabrics I am working with.

I headed out to find a frame for the map thinking I would just buy a ready made black one and have a mat cut. Period. Easy. Cheap.

Black frame...khaki linen mat.

But then.....

Oh mommie.

Dying. I mean what a difference right?

And this one.....

I mean....how can I go back to the ready made black one???

But the budget....

Also it's going over the mantel so it can't be wimpy.

Another gorgeous one.

Can you tell I am out of control now?

I got a price and went to another frame store. I was on a roll.

The quote from here was TWICE as much.

So now what to do. Real life. Budgets. I just came home cause I was overwhelmed. This is me.....agonizing.

More research.

I think I have mentioned before that one of my sisters owns a restaurant called Nancy G's. Her hostess Kelly was in a play last night.....Grease and she played Frenchie.

It was at The Habima Theatre which is Georgia's only theatrical company directed and produced by professionals that feature actors with developmental disabilities.
