my daugher, ayva is a talented artist/designer. she is inquisitive, has great ideas and is able (with a little help) to execute most of them. she is 10!
recent project: duck tape accessories.
it is all the rage... duck tape everything. she started out making wallets, purses, earrings, covering her shoes. you name it.
for this project:: we got a call from cathy carter, the coordinator of the high school's fashion club. she wanted ayva to make an outfit for the upcoming fashion show. (in 2 days) artist under pressure!! perfect!! one trip to walmart, a basket of duck tape, a cutting mat, scissors and an old dress. ayva and i discussed color pallete and layout. i wanted to make sure her idea was solid and she stuck to what was in her head. that is all i did for her. next, she cut, cut, cut, measured + stuck the tape to the dress foundation. she made a matching handbag and feathers to toss to the crowd as well. sweet.
i am so proud! at age 10... ayva sunshine blows me away with her talent and attention to detail. wow!
