Less than one week away! AHH! I'm so excited. Reid has been in China so I've been pulling together details and things. The upper living room is ground zero for the time being. Braden and I have been collaborating on food and meals. From the list we have, we're going to be eating like kings (and queen!) of the road!
I'm so excited, anxious and a little nervous! I'm all over the place but mostly so exited for this trip! I just hope it all goes well getting the RV and stuff, after that I'm not worried at all!
Kara (cousin's future awesome wife) asked me to do what I do best... CRAFTS! She wanted a piñata and she trusted me to do whatever I wanted (bwahaha!). I chose to do a cute hot air balloon piñata. I'm hand making everything! At first I wanted to do this for them, now I'm taking this on as a personal challenge! It's going to be amazing!! Today I got two layers of paper mache on and all the tissue paper parts cut out. I got a cool dye cutter with a ruffle edge to add more depth and texture.
Tomorrow once it's all dry I get the color on it and also start weaving the "ropes" for the basket, "flame" and netting. Confused? You'll see tomorrow ;)
Oh, and there are tiny sand bags filled with sand... Because what piñata doesn't need that?! Anyway... It's going to be epic and I'll post photos of the progress!
First mate Hannah, reporting in!
It's too bad you don't have more time...you should make stuff for Etsy. ;)
