"That looks like a path. Is that the way to reach the top from here?-- Not for this morning, but some other time: I must be getting back to breakfast now." (Robert Frost, "The Mountain", line 34-36)
Do you like wolf T-shirts? How about wolf T-shirts with glowing red eyes? Even better, what if I told you that you could MAKE these wolf T-shirts with glowing red eyes AND howling sound effects? Bre Pettis (MAKE Magazine) and Matt Stinchcomb (Etsy.com) show you how:
I went to my friend (Denise Belz)'s birthday party last year. Everyone was dressed up in black dresses and suits- this was on purpose so that the birthday girl could stand out in her awesome birthday dress-- and awesome it was indeed! But who showed up like a moron wearing a bright white t-shirt? Me. Where was this "all black apparel" memo?... probably on the event invitation... but does anyone ever really read all that stuff? Anyway, Dana gave me something to change into. She only asked for one thing in return- "Make me a shirt with trees on it."*
And so I did:
personalized t-shirt, for dana king acrylic, sewn fabric

we are the moth kings:
the world is so full of a number of things i'm sure we should all be as happy as kings someday weary of the weather, steering by a star we've got our youth, i've got the sun growing out of my heart- i'm not a afraid of the dark
the moon shines- guides my way throughout the night the tall pine- he lets us sleep under the vines it all falls- into place like sand and stone we all long- for the sweet smell of home
