Days 23 and 24

Trying to catch up! Today the stain of the design I did a few days ago is at it's peak, so I made a collage of stain progression. It's not the most detailed design, as I wanted good coverage, and I did it in a hurry as a tribute to my friend Steve who passed last week (we are the two empty shapes). And the lighting of the pictures is crappy, but oh well. :)

The henna is from Darcy at HennaLounge.com


Also today I bought more foam and a better wood burner, and made some more stamps. I really love the blocks, but the new fine tip burner made it possible to do a reverse, to get an actual design as in the last picture. I'm not crazy about working with plastic foam, so I'm going to research rubber or maybe silicone.
