“It’s only hair!!”
That’s what I said to my mom when I dyed it rainbow streaked in 11th grade. Thank god my mother allowed me to explore my creative side. If it had been stifled it most surely would have found it’s way out of me in much more destructive ways than Muchy hair before Muchy was a (not officially sanctioned scrabble) word.
I gave the pre-game dye story here.
Pretty much: Bleach (Twice) (yes, that’s a rusty hammer. In the bathroom. Ask me why. I dare you.)
Not blond enough!
Added the pink anyway:
The results!
NO!!! JUST JOKES!!!
The actual after: Eeeek- too pink:
So, I RECOLORED the top section BACK to my natural Brown color:
(That’s a still shot from the video I made of the event. Me holding the box. Fascinating.)
And finally…. THE RESULTS!!!!
My not so muchy bathroom wall!!!!
(Paying a pro to do my hair woulda been cheaper than paying to have my bathroom repainted. Just Sayin’.)
But really now, in the end I was happy with the results, And here’s a pic from New Years Eve!
They say if you dress Muchy on New Years eve you’re practically guaranteed a Muchy year! Since this is the first year I was actually awake and out of my house on New Years since sometime in the late 90’s, I hope ‘they’re’ right!
Here’s me doing my best unintentional impression of a muchfied Soleil Moon Frye (That’s Punky Brewster to you kids born in the late 80’s) Maybe if I’m feeling gutsy, I’ll send her a link. Click her name there- the pic is oddly similar)
GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE! PUSH YOURSELF! Wear something Muchy!!! You’ll feel proud, confident and happy! You’ll send out good vibes and they’ll come back to you in spades!!!! The power of Muchness is UNSTOPPABLE!!!

Muchness Pic Of The Day!
I have officially completed building (not painting) my first piece of dollhouse furniture and while I’m quite proud of my work, it’s got some issues… not the least of which the fact that it’s altogether WAY too big for any room in this house. I need to figure out how to measure first, cut second. Lol. I’ll hold onto this piece for posterity.
The Muchness has found me… and it’s different.
Two hour delay at the airport… scrolling through pics on my phone to kill some time and stumbled upon these pics I took a few months ago…. a few years ago I wrote a blog post about my grandmother and her vast collection of mini ceramic shoes. She loved her tchotchkes but she was incredibly classy and her shoe collection always felt a little quirky next to all her expensive crystal and silver. I, of course, loved them, and when she passed away a year and a half ago, while other family members decided who got what from the silver and crystal, I just requested her quirky collection of shoes. And I got them… most of them anyhow. Interestingly, these three miniatures matched so well to actual shoes I already owned. There were others that match too, but these are the only pics I have in my phone. I bought some shadow boxes last year to customize and display the shoes, but never finished that project. I’m gonna pick it up and finish it after Passover and share it with you. In addition to a bunch of sparkly collectible shoes from the MET, I have an entire display filled with just shit-kicking mini cowboy boots. I don’t think my grandmother ever put on a pair of cowboy boots in her life…. unless Chanel happened to make a version of a cowboy boot at some point in the 70s…. and even then…
