A to Z Challenge - E


PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-MISS ELINOR DASHWOOD

Austen Alphabet05
Who can ever forget Emma Thompson's crying fit when she learns that Edward is not actually married!

PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-EAR HATS

Disney E-01
I'm very picky when it comes to ear hats, but I think my favorites are the plain 'ole black ones because one says Disney World and the other Disneyland. Again, there is no reliable viable way to display these, so if anyone has any ideas, just let me know!

The only way I can think to display all those ear-hats, other than as you have shown, is on mannikins' heads, but that would take up a lot of room, and cost a pretty penny, too!

Great stitching and again, an impressive collection :)
Your display is best as could be without using to much space.

We just got back from Disney, but nobody in my family chose a hat. They are getting quite elaborate these days. If I had to, I'd probably pick a plain black one too.

Nice hats! S&S is my second favourite Austen but I was surprised E wasn't Emma.

i liked elinor dashwood. she had a head on her shoulders and didn't live in the clouds like her sister.

the emma thompson movie is one of my favorites. and the newest pbs version was excellent as well.

great post.

Great hat collection Keiley. Maybe you could rotate them on a shelf.

I love that movie, and specifically that moment. Great stitching and fun display of hats. Possibly you could make a fabric hammock and suspend them from the ceiling? But not sure how well you could see them. They look good now.

I enjoyed looking back through your previous posts and seeing all your collections! Very nice.
Bea said…
Love that movie! I think you're displaying your hats as well as possible without a lot of expense.

That's an awesome collection!

Maybe dolls or stuffed animals could wear them?
Vickie said…
That crying session kinda got on my nerves...not sure why but it did!!!
E is for Ear Hats LOVE it!

You could buy up old Girl's World heads and restyle them as Disney Princesses and they could wear the eat hats?

I love her dress nice work :). I just got some new ears-the pirate Minnie ones. We have some club 33, diamond celebration, wedding ones, 50th anniversary ones and the originals. You have some cool ones too!

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
