    Yep, the Garden Bunny hears some things stirring up out there in the real forum
    .

    I've been working on clearing the side of the room for the cat windo shelvs. There's a small desk over there, and I had to take everything off of it to get it ready to be moved I also cleared out half that raised bed today, and it is ready to go for planting.

    I want to build or adapt something that I can hang my kilts in that will keep the dust and stuff off, but also be moveable. One idea I'm working with would be to adapt a large suitcase such that it would have a hanging rod and the kilts could be hung when the case is sitting on end. The other idea would be to build a tubular frame from scrach, and put a fabric covering around it. Either way it would have to be free standing and also movable, so light weight. I could leave my kilts hanging in my closet, but my closet is tiny... It also has the nineteen gallon water heater for the house at one end. Although, the water heater is short enough that the kilts could be hung on that end of the closet...


    Garden Bunny told you...

    I salvaged this from a post I made in a thread that might be locked down.

    "Ok, how about this. I am a summer seasonal skin tone type, and do my best to stick to those colors when choosing all my clothing including my kilts. That would be the browns, blues, pastels, and tans... I also have dark charcoel brown hair with dark auburn highlights, and that goes well with gray and black colors. I try very very hard to not mix black and brown, however, I have found that a little bit of black goes alright with brown. A little bit of brown does not seem to go with a majority of black. There seems to be a lot of brown and black mixing in tartans. I still would not wear a brown belt, sporran, and shoes with a mostly black kilt, and I would avoid the same in black on a mainly brown kilt. Evening wear and day wear rules bother me."

    That is now resolved, and I no longer have to worry about mixing brown and black clothing. I will also stick to my seasonal skin tone color chart.

    Oh dear, that thread was locked down when I went back and looked. This time I know for sure that it had nothing what so ever to do with me. I had just posted about snicker doodles and peanut butter cookies to answer someone who was replying to me. I had a bad feeling about that thread, and I had salvaged a couple of other of my posts. they're back there a ways, and combine math with cookies...

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
