Lu Lu's make over..

Lu Lu is my poor, poor wig head who has, frankly, seen much better days.

I "acquired" (acquired means I did not steal........) Lu Lu from one of the (ohhh so many) productions of "Seussical" I did- back in 2004. She's been my confidant ever since; carrying many a Halloween or show wig, modeling for pictures of my latest knitting venture, and carefully wearing the hats I deem too delicate to throw into the overly large pile of hats I've come to own (it's a bit of a problem, really).

Since she's been helping me for the last 7ish years, i figured it was about time to show a little TLC in kind.

So, I learned the basic techniques of decoupaging, and, thanks to my grandmother who went through a major decoupage phase back in the 90's (so long ago, right? i know) I was hooked up with all the necessary equiptment and treated Lu Lu to some well deserved cosmetic surgery.

Voila! She looks about 10 years younger and about 95% less creepy.


and she's been booking work like crazy:
