Salad Bowl Dress

Happy Halloween month!

October 1st is tomorrow. The weather is acting weird, as if it is getting colder earlier. I am looking forward to the cooler weather, though.

We had some nice events last week. The Mother Earth Market was fantastic. Any day that starts with Yoga and a Reggae singer MsRoyal jamming all day was so pleasant. People were sharing their passion for saving the planet locally and worldly with biodegradable products and generally high-quality products or vintage. It was a paperless and plastic-free day, which in small ways, makes one do things differently, which is contagious. Listen to a talk by Thea of Eco Now here on SBD YouTube.

The other event was with The League of Women Voters, a group that learns about the issues. Policy is what is going to save fashion, and it is what is going to make all our lives better in the short and long run.

The other news I want to share is that I wear this vests every day, which makes people stop and compliment me. This one is a tunic vest that looks good and wearable or functional. It is here; we will make one to order if purchased from the website.

Salad Bowl Dress will be at Claremont tomorrow, Oct 1, and Oct 29, 2023. We have lots of new vests, wide-brimmed hats, and dresses.

We are doing a lot of new work building up to the Artistic License two-day fair at the Muckenthaler Mansion in Fullerton on Nov. 3 and 4. Although the whole thing is growing, I will have the exact location as the last two years.

I wish everyone well and safe this holiday Halloween season—one of my favorites. I will make a human salad bowl costume and a few other Dia de los Muertos projects.

The Barbie craze is still going strong, prompting me to share some of my memorabilia one day.

Another book to check out by my son and myself, my mother's career in art, is available on Amazon. Fay Colmar Retrospective: A Collection of her Work as an Artist.

The website is still not formally launched, but soon it will be. You may still check it out.

A work in progress.

XO, Mary
