Two Is Better Than One and News Flash! Project Runway
Freshly Carved Original
If any of you have been wondering who Armando is NEWS FLASH
I've known Mondo since he was a wee teen. Now he is a wee Designer Extraordinaire. OH! There's that word again.. DEAL. PS The "Y" is Spanish for "and or plus" not the middle initial of Armando y Montez. Just to clarify that. Anyway watch "Project Runway" on the Lifetime Channel..PSSS He doesn't have anything to do with this blog. That is an other long story.

Argus Schmargus Bring on the Curls
I finally got the nerve to curl one of the Argus Feathers. I experimented on the most chewed one. I couldn't get the splits in the flues back together so instead I pinched the spine between my thumb nail and index finger on the under side until it gave way. I did this pinching about every 1/8 inch. I could have used my Palette Knife that I use to curl feathers but, I felt I had a little more control doing without the knife. After all I have been known to ruin a good feather.
Heady Little Things
I don't know how to describe these. Not really. The middle one is a Milliner friends find.
She suggested turning it into a 40's Turban. I can see it draped in silk chiffon.
