In The Pink

The secret's out!! In support of Lori McDaniel Anderson for all the hard work she does for the beading community, especially the Bead Soup Blog Hop party and Bead Soup Cafe, a group of 137 women (and maybe some men?) have put together a Facebook group called "In the Pink" We have kept this a secret from Lori and now it's time to reveal our "pink hair" As Lori has part of her own hair dyed pink, the tribute was to either dye your hair or add some hair extentions, pink feathers etc. As I did not have time to dye my hair, I set out to the dollar store to see what I could come up with. Well...hair extentions were found in the kids section! (too tacky) No feathers to be found, so I ended up with hot pink curly ribbons. The worst part of all this was trying to take a decent picture of myself!
Thank you Lori for all the wonderful selfless things you do for the beading community!

    This is a wonderful post! You shared the "IN The Pink" group so clearly and your pink hair style is gorgeous! I agree with Kashmira -- like wisteria:)

  9. The curls are adorable :)Thanks for taking part :)
    And the trick to self portraits (without using a timer on your camera) is a mirror.. of course, it only works if your camera has a digital display that you can see in the mirror to line up the shot ;) lol

  10. What a great curly pink extension. The photo was truly the hardest part, I think many of us had to do like you and take it ourselves, too. It's been so fun to be in this crazy group. It's the first thing I check on facebook when I log on!

  11. I don't even remember how many tries it took for me to get a someone decent pic of myself with my pink hair -- half the time only 1/2 my head was in the shot! The ribbons were a cute and original idea! :)
