Nothing brings me as much joy as a pom pom.

Brief history: When I was about 16 years old, I attended a youth meeting at Camp Williams (a nearby military base). My best friend Kirsten and I were excited to try the military mood, so we went to the Savers (convenience store) and bought some military camouflage pants.

The pants were very manly and we decided to make them. We took them to my house and started decorating them. From the knee to the bottom of the skirt, we added neon yellow triangular panels to make it look like pants.

On top of that, we added a green pom-pom to the bottom skirt. Let's say we stand out more in our group and the military likes it!

On the way back we stopped in New York for a long time. I was in town for the first time, so we packed up at the airport and took a taxi to Manhattan. He had so much fun and gave us a little vacation to coincide with our tropical vacation.

It was raining and cold, but that did not stop us from seeing as much as possible in a jiffy. My favorite or most inspiring thing is the anthropology program. Beware:

I created this design in Photoshop and introduced it into the Cricut Design Space. I added the picture 3 times and then erased the outline so I could have a different color for each letter. Right-click to save, for personal use only.


Vinyl cut in red, yellow and pink. The best part of this project was that I used what I had and got nothing but pillowcases.

Align the letters and then click with EasyPress 2 .

In Joyful Anthropology, I constantly add fragments and finally syllables to the strategic points of the letters, trying to mimic the stained glass window. If I had more power, I would use a needle and thread to add more. But I am very happy with the result and the little effort required!

I let it sit for a few hours to make sure the glue works, and then put it on the pillow. I love how it turned out! Wondering what inspires you to go hiking in Manhattan?

They had a second window with the word "Person" written on it ... It was beautiful too, but Joy melted my heart.
