Needle Tatting and other Nonsense: The Hookah Smoking Caterpillar

The caterpillar spent Friday morning being embellished by dozens of little blue dots and you know what? It worked. Yep, as soon as I stepped back and looked at the finished piece I felt that sensation, that knowledge that it was done. Whew. It got listed quite quickly after that and has been added to the Wonderland mix.

As I was working on that I got a request from a photographer for a white mask. she wants to use it in a Lady GaGa inspired shoot. Normally, I’d loan out the mask for this sort of thing, provided I liked/trusted the photographer, but white & makeup do not mix, so a deal was struck. I will be sending off my incredible, crazy, sequins and crystal whole face mask to finally get the photo shoot that it so desperately needs. I’ve wanted to list it forever, but I just don’t have the skills needed to due it justice. So, hopefully I’ll have some amazing pictures in the next month or so.

I’m also hard at work on the two custom and secret choker designs. I feel weird not sharing them with you all, but eventually you’ll get to see them. One is a bit of a collar one only a little less…like the portrait chokers little sister or something and the other is a variation on my Gothic Princess design made to match the other. I really like them both so as soon as the secret is spilled, I’ll post both here.

On Saturday, we spent much of the day supporting some friends who had the grand opening of their comic book shop. Since the owners of our local shop passed away about a year ago we’ve not had one in town. We’ve tried to be as helpful as we can with the shop as our entire family enjoys comics. obviously this meant no tatting, but I did have some very interesting conversations, most notably with a friend who happens to be a world class comic artist who was doing a signing there. he offered much advice on dealing with multiple Internet presences and dealing with the crap people say on the web. It’s nice to know that we all deal with this stuff no matter what our art is, plus he is really fun to talk to. Unfortunately, we never go out, so this one day of activity left me with a Sunday of headache and exhaustion. I did manage to get one of those custom necklaces done and the design prototype for the other is finished as well, so I can work on that today. Oh and remaking a few things…and there’s a mask on the list too and did I mention a White Rabbit mask…yeah, it might be a busy week.

Now Open: Seven Lounge Hookah Bar in Phoenix – Phoenix Restaurants …

​7th Street-goers can have a drink and a smoke to celebrate the the newest destination in the budding network of local businesses just north of McDowell Road in the Coronado District.

The neighborhood that already boasts America’s Taco Shop, MacAlpine’s Soda Fountain, The Main Ingredient Ale House, That’s a Wrap!, Coronado Cafe and La Piccola Cucina welcomed Seven Lounge to the lineup this weekend, and Chow Bella was there for its soft opening Friday night.

The idea for seven Lounge came about after the owners shared a particularly lovely hookah bar/lounge experience on the beach in Florida.

The couple realized that Phoenix lacks the same chic, late night opportunity to grab a drink and a bite while puffing flavored tobacco out of a hookah (because, quite frankly, doing it next to a group of college freshman in hemp necklaces and Dave Matthews Band tees in Tempe just isn’t the same).

​The owners fell in love with the neighborhood, and after the initial interior fix-up, the spot went from virtually unknown to open seemingly overnight.

The bar serves beer and wine, as well as a selection of group-portioned appetizers and pitzas (open-faced pita pizzas) made by the folks next door at La Piccola Cuchina.

There are more developments to come, including new signage, an outdoor patio and a variety of nightly musical entertainment from local DJs.
