Goodies and more goodies!

January 27th, 2010 by Toni | Filed under Blathering about what today?.

I got the most lovely two packages from Jessika stuffed FULL of polishes over the last couple of weeks and haven’t been able to get good photos of them. One is a very special polish made for me, Toni the Frog, lol! (Yes, I have a thing for frogs and toads!) It’s a bright and beautiful tree-frog green with holo glitter!  Among the goodies… a Chanel for me to try out, the coveted LE CK Summer Love and Illamasqua Rampage!! I can’t wait to show you all the goodies!! It’s a swapaholic’s dream.

DH went shopping today for a light box and came back with materials to make one! It’s HUGE! He decided to make the frame from 1/2″ pvc pipe and fittings for more stability and longer use. The fittings are glued together to make it permanent. He purchased reflective clip lights from Home Depot (where he also got the pvc and had it cut) and muslin fabric from JoAnn’s. I plan to use masking tape to put the fabric on so I can change it or wash it. After it’s set up, I put a piece of Bristol Board in the back and voila’! I’ll have my light box!

We still have to glue it together, put on the fabric, yada yada…. a job for the morning, but I’m excited!!

    Anyway, the light box is for taking pictures so the color is more accuate and you don’t have to worry when you live somewhere it’s rainy all the time! ;)
