I design clothing and accessories for my .. web store www.louiseblack.etsy.com. It features one of a kind, couture, accessories, and wearable art pieces by yours truly.I tend to have odd taste in clothing & belongings. I like weird color combinations and I long to raise & squeeze fluffy chickens. I'm a hard worker, spending most of my time chained to my sewing machine or drawing up new clothing designs.
I've moved more than anyone I know, and I'm now an expert at packing having moved all of my belongings from place to place 10 times over the past 6 years. I'm a shy, nervous person, but buy me a few drinks and I will show you my hidden self. I like to overdress for every occasion and I never settle for the mundane.
I paint, used to play the saxophone, collect vintage medical objects, dead insects, bones, and dollheads, like strange exotic foods, practice raw fooding some of the time, snort when I laugh, like make-up but rarely wear any, read when I have free time, and like going to decadent parties (though I rarely go to any that would qualify).
