Highs and Lows...Need to Sew

I took a leap today and inquired about a studio rental near my apartment...

...and was *crestfallen* to find that it was no longer available. The moment I saw the interior picture, I just fell in love! For the past 24 hours I was happily daydreaming about my glorious future workspace, and a little e-mail from the real estate agent pooped on it all! HMPF!

I so greatly desire to have my own space and do my own work, and I just feel overwhelmed with how to go about getting it. For the time being, I've committed myself to reading some related legal schmegal articles, so that I feel like I'm *doing something* pro-active towards this goal.

Anyways, how about I stop boring you with my tortured artist rhetoric!? The frustration today led to me to do some instant gratification sewing! I've had the idea in my head for ages to make a kitschy ballerina brooch. Since I've committed my shop profits to the "artistic freedom" fund, I thought I should develop a few dance products for fun and for the sake of keeping with the theme. What do you all think?

Ballerina Brooch

I'm especially happy with the how the little bits of tulle behind the ballerina look! I'm thinking some silvery or gold netting might look pretty scooby too!

Adorable! I've always loved those little jewelry-box ballerinas!

And I personally think that any craft item that inspires the use of the word "scooby" as an adjective deserves rave reviews! (as does the simple act of using "scooby" as an adjective!)
