Pics of the head process as we learn together the henna line work and the blue woad staining. Tomorrow we continue and see if the woad comes out or if more experimenting is needed.

This weekend has been full of fun and old friends and new friends, medievalness, Irish whiskey, stories about a pocket dragon named Bob, sun and moon, and finished with the artwork started on a gorgeous bald head. Energy empty, heart full.

Playing with natural Indigo Powder (Indigofera Tinctoria) as a skin stain. Smells like earthy green cut hay-damp timothy hay. No skin irritation or reaction and letting it set dry. Supposed to "leave an intriguing tinge of blue to the hair. Use gloves to prevent skin staining."

I have a dear friend who is just beginning to lose her hair to chemo. We are going to work together to give her the most beautiful head ever. Creating an album of ideas and designs for henna / woad / natural skin dyes for her head. All artistic rights due to the artists of these designs. I will post when the designs are my own.

10 c cherry juice to 12 c sugar, I know that sounds like a lot but store bought uses more. The syrup will be better for drinks than ice cream. Excellent for folding into whip cream for cake frosting.

Second clarify of the cherry juice. Coffee filters for the win.

Nine cups of sour cherry fruit purée. No sugar. I'm pulling some off to freeze as is. Can be added to other recipes for subtle cherry flavor in the future:
-a couple tbsp to white cake mix
-toss in a fruit smoothie

Wow! Four quarts of cherry skin and fruit, a LOT of juice clarified. Look at it - so pretty. No sugar yet.

Kent and Seattle friends, it's danger hot out there. I may not have air conditioning but I have a basement. If you need a safe place to crash the next few days shout out. I'll move stuff and make space for sleeping. Note: I do have a black lab but he can live sequestered in kiddos room (in the basement) if needed.

Mmmmm, sour cherry haul from the neighbors little tree. Gonna be another hot day in the kitchen 🍒❤️

Six total hours from beginning tree picking to finished jars a poppin' May seem like a small yield but I know exactly what is in these jars and how damn good it is going to taste 🍒❤️

Does anyone know if black cherry can make a good dye? Or cherry pits for scrub? I'm up the most wonderful tree.

Holy cow! A few days of busy going on here at my house. But still found time to cut out some cotton under-garments for an upcoming SCA camping event. For those new to the page - the Society for Creative Anachronism is a group of wonderful and crazy people who like to role play the best of the Middle Ages spanning AD 800 through 1600. Yup, go medieval or go home!!

Very pleased with myself. I was able to give a half inch to the suit coat center seam at the upper back. Trust me, the groom will appreciate it when he goes to grab the bride 😆

I already have Con creation withdrawal. So back to working on wedding attire and fun 'secret' items. And playing with my toys from the Mary Bridge Children Foundation silent auction basket I won at the Star Wars pavilion. I think Vader looks good as a Disney Princess 😁

Oh man, I had too much fun and the budget is blown for the next 3 months! There was shopping, more autographs and Kit from Knight Rider!! Richard Dean Anderson was awesome-so fun stories from SG1. And Cooper is the happiest kid on earth right now!!
