End of TAD
I wanted to post the chaos that a creative burst does at my house. This shows 3 of the 4 work space I used. Pieces, parts, raw materials, and finished things, are everywhere. I spent several months reorganizing the basement

I will admit, I am a little disappointed with my end. It didn’t turn out the way I wanted it to. This is my second attempt bleaching t-shirts, I guess I still have a lot to learn. Just because February
