keep on knockin but you can't come in
i finally asked permission to photograph & share this project with you so i suppose it doesn't have to be such a secret anymore, but it more fun that way... my weekend was a blur of box-making, as will be this weekend & next weekend, too... they are gorgeous (if i may say so myself) but i am exhausted & my arms & back are sore. i am making a set of insane boxes for a textile designer (Raoul Textiles) covered in her own fabrics. the designs are screen-printed on linen & i'm turning them into bookcloth using this technique for paperbacking fabrics from NewYorKamera. due to the dryness of my apt, i had much better results putting the methyl cellulose on the fabric first; it retained moisture longer than the paper & subsequently had a more uniform adhesion & dried flatter.
i have been scrimping & saving all my money these past several months in preparation of being unemployed mid-april. so, to congratulate myself for receiving steady paychecks for yet another year, i have decided to order a 30gig ipod! the question is: what should i get engraved on the back?
