The Fortune Teller's Tent

This rag curtain will be the entrance to the fortune teller's tent.



This used to be a red Christmas candle lantern with fake greenery attached to the chimney. A new paint job and a battery-powered magnetic lightbulb make this perfect to help illuminate the fortune teller's tent.



This will hang on the back wall of the fortune teller's tent:


The chairs for the fortune teller and her client:

I painted two old wooden folding chairs black and added nice soft cushions.

Pennant Banners

I have made a lot of pennant in the past few months, because I think they are the easiest way to give a party a circus look.

There is a 40-foot long solid colored black and white banner to go around the fortune teller's tent and 50- foot long and 20-foot long banner with printed fabric, like the one being shown in the picture below, that will circle the dining tent. There are also a 100-food and a 50-foot matching banner to decorate the area where the tables will be outside the dining tent and smaller banners for the inside of the tent.






There are two 10-foot printed fabric banners to decorate random, undecided spots and a 5-foot one for the front of the bar. The bar banner and the ones for inside the dining tent have little lights sewn onto the point of each pennant.

This solid colored black and white banner has the name of the circus and various circus themed charms sewn onto the tip of each pennant.

Our Spring Facial Fashion Show

I haven't done a lot of sewing lately. There has been surprisingly little time during the Covid19 crisis.
I have made a couple masks, though, so we can venture out into the World for shopping.

Here are our spring fashions:











My husband doesn't like the masks, so I gave him this scarf instead, which he says is much better.
