Do you need anything? I have a really lovely informal ivory dress I could send you, it’s too small for me, but it would make a lovely informal wedding gown. I also have a veil and tiara if you go the bigger route, I just got married in October
OMG, I’m rolling over here, the things you guys come up with!! PT, your too funny!! I needed that! 😆 😆
Oh! Koishi I’m so sorry! I lost one of my cats right before christmas, she was 13, and at least I knew she was ill. i can’t imagine losing my Emma, I don’t know what I’d do, she’s my baby! and to lose a furbaby so unexpectedly is the hardest!
This helped me alot:Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together….

I forgot about Walmart! (I love Walmart, such a redneck I am) (I line dance too, with a cowboy hat on) anyway, I think walmart has delco and apple barrel, both are good, though make sure you check the apple barrel, alot of the colors are hi gloss
If you have a Michael’s or a A.C. Moore by you, you can get large bottles of Delta paint in the primary colors. I would stay away from tempra, it can be unpredictable, and doesn’t mix well with acrylic. I find that my 2 oz bottles go a long way, but I usually have the primary and black and white in bigger bottles. Also, I usually do blocks of the wall at a time, ie. grass all at once, then sky, etc, then go back and do the detail work, but that’s just what works for me.
I also agree with the acrylic over standard latex house paint. I mostly use acrylic when I paint murals, but try not to mix glossy paints with flat, it can look funny. Also, I’ve found that metallics can flake. I would check with your OB about the latex paint, I wouldn’t advise it, only because of the fumes, but the acrylic shoudn’t be a problem. Make sure you post progress shots!!! And have fun!
