From the Atelier – On to the Next Project

Pulling three more racks of clothes for the next job to join the two that are already at No. 11, and more on Monday. Leaving Wednesday am for three weeks in different locations in Southeast Arizona; Adam will fly out to join and help wrap on the 24th. Townspeople (fashionable and not), saloon types, rough ranchers, lawmen…and hoping to style a few lovely *non feathered* saloon girls. Prepared with petticoats. More is better.


At No. 11 – Helldorado, the Aftermath

Apres-Helldorado Malaise. Chaos, Chick Food, Christmas movies and of course…sewing. Avert your eyes if extreme girliness offends. Time to get ready for the film shoot…


Helldorado is Done…Moving On

The party’s over. Had a nice walk home and now…work begins. Missing Adam and Little Dog Tribe! Mr. Lid flies in on Tuesday so I need to clean this house because you know…dust.


At No. 11 – Helldorado Day 2

Helldorado 2024 Diary, Day Two. Coffee musings: Parisian cotton/silk or vintage dotted suit? I realize the fate of the world doesn’t rest on this decision…but heck–this is my job.


Morning From No. 11

Morning coffee in the Violet Parlor. Looks like that original chromolith that I call: “Harem Girl” is going to join my group of Victorian brunette naughties here at #11…she is lovely ❤️ Largish vintage print is coming down and Harem Girl will take that place. The Guest room behind that wall is also getting a makeover, moving furniture around is what I do when Adam isn’t here! A bit of artistic chaos always ends up wonderfully. I’ve got a plan.
