It’s nearly the best time of year again: Halloween! I was inspired to make today’s post by one of my current projects, which is turning this Beautiful vintage marching band jacket into something I can use for a Creepy Ringleader costume. This jacket is easily the best thing I’ve ever found at a thrift store,… Continue reading Halloween is coming
From the Archive – LEGO Shenanigans
It’s been a busy week and once again I don’t have anything new to share, but I do have something fun I shot a while back using some LEGO mini-figurines. Enjoy. This tiny 80s Rocker Dude looks like he’s in the middle of a wild music video shoot. This sad, spooky girl seems to be… Continue reading From the Archive – LEGO Shenanigans
About Photo Editing and Restoration
Among my (long, long) list of things I need to do, I need to go out and take more photos. Or stay inside and take more photos. I just need to take more photos. I have not done that recently, however today I’ve been editing some. My fiancé has some images – mostly scans of… Continue reading About Photo Editing and Restoration
From the Archive – Philbrook Museum of Art
Time has gotten away from me this past… month… so I dug through my old photos and found a few I wanted to share. These are from the outside garden at the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, OK. I had the chance a few years ago to visit this wonderful museum in the spring,… Continue reading From the Archive – Philbrook Museum of Art
Back to John’s Place – Final Part
It’s been a while since I’ve posted about John’s OK County 66, but I wanted to share one last set of photos showing some more points of interest on the property. Inside the museum, there are a few upstairs areas you can visit. One of them includes a full front section of a Volkswagen Beetle… Continue reading Back to John’s Place – Final Part
Elephants! – OKC Zoo Part 2
That’s right, this post is dedicated to the elephants I saw at the zoo. Mostly the cute baby elephant living there. The baby had been playing with the stick but the parent decided to take it for a while. No problem. Who needs a stick when you have a swimming pool? Another breed of elephant… Continue reading Elephants! – OKC Zoo Part 2
Zoo Photos!
I still have some more photos to share from my Route 66 adventure, but I wanted to break up that series because I went to the zoo this week! Here are some of my favorite photos from the trip. Shortly after you enter the gate, it’s common to see at least one peacock. I only… Continue reading Zoo Photos!
OK County 66 Part 3 – Museum
At John’s OK County 66, there is a lot to see out in the open. However, that’s not all this quirky location has to offer. It also has a museum that houses even more replicas of famous sites along the Mother Road, as well as assorted memorabilia. Here you see a ton of old street… Continue reading OK County 66 Part 3 – Museum
Jewelry! – My Shop Opened
Hello! I told you that I would make a new post once my Etsy shop formally opened, so here it is! I’ve decided to name my shop “Designs By Lori B” and you can visit me here. At this moment, I still have some items already made and photographed that I need to list, but… Continue reading Jewelry! – My Shop Opened
John’s OK County 66 – Part Two
In my last post, I mentioned that I visited a place called John’s OK County 66, or “John’s Place” for short, but didn’t show what this attraction really was. It is one man’s homage to Route 66, built by his own two hands. John Hargrove is a retired school bus and airplane mechanic who decided… Continue reading John’s OK County 66 – Part Two
