it made me think about how shadows are often so much larger than the thing they are a shadow of...
and in my office... I have a baby...
that perhaps dreams, that someday, he will grow up...
and be a big boy... 
but for now... he'll have to resign himself to knowing that, his shadow reflects the metamorphosis of the big boy chandy he will become someday... down here in French Lique...
and a note about the chandy shadow... I completely forgot to take photos of it's installation... I followed the directions supplied by Wilson Graphics very carefully... and though, due to it's large size, it was a little cumbersome for one person to install it alone, once I got going, I found it pretty easy to do. It does take a while... with all the little "crystal" pieces, which have a tendency to want to stay on the paper you peel off... I used my Martha Stewart boning tool... and with a little patience and care... Voila'! I would highly recommend Wilson's products... I've bought others and been disappointed, but no disappointment here! I love it!

Hey Dixie, very cool! Baby Chandy probably already thinks the "shadow" is his. He is looking very proud! My son has one of those "fat heads" in his room. It's a life size NBA basketball player. That was a challenge to get up too.

ReplyDeleteOh, I LOVE your sweet Southern Iced Tea!! Having Arkansas roots, that's the only way we used to drink it when I was young!! In fact, last weekend, we visited some of my family there and I enjoyed a big old glass of sweet tea for the first time in years!! :)
Have a great day! L, Dana
