My homesickness has reached new levels. Not only am I walking around signing Sandy Cheeks songs, but I am also tearing up at Man v. Food, as he visits Austin and Amarillo, Texas. The sight of a woman balling as she watches a man attempt to devour 72 oz steaks and donuts as big as his head is not a pretty sight.
To cure me, I’ve been trolling the internet in search of great Texas artifacts to fill my home in random places. Most of what I found was either somewhat ugly or downright creepy. I was pretty down over it all and figured it would be difficult to find anything.
Until – I thought of a great sewmistress, Kylie Bennett of Fabulously Fierce. Kylie is talented and artistic, with a creative edge. I thought she would be the best bet to stave off the fuglies. (Visit her Etsy Shop.)
So, last week I ordered custom made pillows to satisfy the Texan in me. Kylie helped me pick out fabric and discuss options. We tossed around ideas such as chili peppers, barbed wire, lassos, etc – and finally ended up with these pillows. She was helpful and professional. Word is – they are in the mail and on the way! Now all I have to do is buy new wall art and other stuff to go with the great pillows.
Welcome back!
