I don't believe I have ever seen a beard tied up even in pictures ... but I have to say you sold it with your art. I love the shirt (would love to get one just like it for my husband) and the red beard ... perfect, all of it!<br /><br />Andrea @ From The SolAndrea @ From The Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00657271089899579261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876129775144082.post-40066794238053889722017-09-06T21:22:52.948-05:002017-09-06T21:22:52.948-05:00OH, Alexandra...I love your unique take on the the...OH, Alexandra...I love your unique take on the theme this week and your explanation of how the different elements were added. In my teen years, plaid flannel shirts used to be standard part of the winter dress for young men. I wore a few flannel plaid shirts myself back then...so comfy with jeans. I assume the lumberjack ones are padded for extra warmth? We have those ones too. Your sailor actually brings to mind a sea shanty I used to sing a lot growing up, purely because I liked the rhythm and Irish twang...have you heard <i>"What shall we do with the drunken sailor?"</i> Michael may have. If not, you can check out the Irish Rovers version on YouTube. I never sang all the verses...just the main one at the start.<br /><br />Enjoy the rest of your week. :)Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876129775144082.post-42828206087347911052017-09-06T20:51:21.654-05:002017-09-06T20:51:21.654-05:00Whilst I have ZERO affinity for ailing or hardy ha...Whilst I have ZERO affinity for ailing or hardy hard living sailors, I adore this piece. That beard is incredible! Must have taken you ages and another clever take on the "tie it up" theme, like Tammie also did. Funny, would have never occurred to me to do hair like that. <br /><br />Anyway, so glad my shirt at least could inspire you this hardy way. That's probably about as far as I could there. Ha. Oh and I LOVE LOVE your always amusing write ups, darling. So fun. They really make the picnic that much more social. I can picture it all. The waft of the fish n chips and vinegar splashed on of course too but I think Id have to sample your lil tartlets first before going for anything that heavy. I wonder what the sailor man would talk about? Maybe he is Norwegian and doesn't speak English though? Hmm... I suppose I could do by best Muppets swedish chef for some kind of kinship connection? :) Thank you so much for doing this! <br /><br />I've posted my colour version now btw and will be changing out the themes either tonight or tomorrow, so stay tuned! :)Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712046924863763290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876129775144082.post-35513712410676264102017-09-06T20:45:43.904-05:002017-09-06T20:45:43.904-05:00OH Wanda!
