Re-exploring Key West

Lakeland Fun Day is full of fun!

Well here I am at 5:30 in the morning waiting for things to get underway.   I was so tired last night from my drive from Key West to Lakeland , so I went to bed early.   That means I get up early.   But I'm raring to go.

 Today is workshops.   This morning I have a belly dancer doll class.   I thought my Moroccan project could use a belly dancer.   Hopefully she will come out well - I've done dolls, but not my specialty.   This evening I'm taking a Moroccan Trunk class.   Should be a fun day and I'll have a couple projects done.

My drive yesterday was uneventful.   Just long.   I quit using 75 as my way of getting here.   I go up the center of the state on  Hwy 27.   It moved along nicely and I actually get to see some interesting     
sites.   There are two old places that I just love.  One is an Alligator tourist stop and the other is an old cafe with a huge pineapple out front.   I will see if I can find pics on this device to post.   If not, I will post later.  Couldn't find them on my iPad, but here they are a little later. 



My belly dancer class turned out terrific.   Taught by Tish Tierney.   Her instructions were good and precise.   The class moved along nicely and I finished my project.

The first picture is of the finished belly Dancer.    The 2nd is various phases during the day.   I found the way of finishing the edges of the fabric fascinating with glitter.   However, it goes everywhere.  Oh well, most of us could use a little sparkle.  

The last picture is of the trunk.   This class was taught by Susan Wener in the evening.   Learned several new techniques and had a lot of fun.

I generally like to post comments right next to the picture but my blogger on my iPad isn't working quite right this morning. (oops, too tired to finish this last night).

Today is FUN DAY.   We will do the box that will house all my treasures.    Tonight is the preview show of the sales' room.   Oh what fun.



The Alligator building the pineapple aren't on my iPad.   Will update late.     Oh by the way, I'm up really early again.   It's only 5:30 - way too early for breakfast.
