5 thing Friday - sewing chair, yarn, art show, dinner, nude

 I've been putting a few finishing touches on my craft space and hanging out in there from time to time, mostly putseying.

Instead of ordering the pink chair, I went and bought $6 worth of floofy pink fabric and re-covered the seat of the chair Scout left behind. (maybe my last purchase ever at Joann's...)

It kind of looks like a pink towel?  Super soft and comfy though.  And not permanent if he ever wants this chair back.

I also made a wall hanging for a few dollars.  

Not the same color of pink, but that's OK.  It was fun to do.  It was a practice piece - I would like to make one a little larger with an actual branch.

One day last week I picked up a sammie and drove to a pretty local park to eat lunch.

It was still chilly out, so I just opened the sunroof and enjoyed my lunch semi-al fresco.

Then I drove to BFE South Austin to see an interactive art installation called Mesmerize. Can you believe the difference in weather from one part of town to another? Weird.

It was fun to walk around, but also very strange.  I'm not entirely sure about the dream message the artists were trying to convey.  Anyhow, I left the house and peopled.  Go me.

Easy dinner one night: mini meatloaf wrapped in bacon, some frozen broccoli florets with butter, half of a frozen twice baked potato.  It cooked all together for about 45 minutes and was pretty tasty.  However, I am still struggling with wanting to prepare a meal at all.

One of the frames I emptied of family portraits is now home to this nude line drawing, which hangs in my office.  I'm envisioning a gallery wall of sorts in here, and this is my first piece to hang.  It was $23, and I love it in this frame.  And now the big family portraits are all safely stored away.
