In this picture, we’re up to 3 coats on the right, 2 on the left.
This is a big project for such a small amount of square inches that need painted.
Still, that orange is nicely vibrant.

Big Party Prep: Clipboards
All the coolest parties have clipboards, and ours is no exception. My brother grabbed me a stack of cardboard from the coffee shop where he works, and it was enough to make 20 clipboard cutouts. Once Matt and I visit SCRAP to get 20 binder clips, we will be in cheap clipboard business. At $1–2.00 per clipboard for real ones, this was a great use of my life. Plus, when the party is over we won’t have 20 clipboards to get rid of, we can just remove the binder clips and recycle the cardboard.
I learned this cheap clipboard method by watching all the signature gatherers. They came in handy for something after all.
Mark on the Calendar
Kelly held the kitty fort at the Orange Door, so we arranged for her to find out about the ceremony before the wedding announcement arrived in the mail. She left us this cute heart on our house calendar. And also lovely presents, but I found the heart particularly charming.
