The pictures don’t do it justice, but I’m glad I woke up for the #superbluebloodmoon #lunareclipse this morning. It was spectacular and totally worth braving the cold (and the early morning). (at Haul Road)

Not technically an old photo, but I figured #fbf was the perfect time to share the first official photo from my vintage 1940s-style photoshoot. In honor of my grandmother, who would have been 96 today, I’m starting with this photo because my dad says it makes me look like her when she was my age 😊 (Also because I love the composition and colors...) 📸: Keith Wyner Hair & Makeup: @corgisareawesome24 #hairstyles #vintage #operagloves #1940sfashion #1940shair #1940sdress #1940sstyle #vintagestyle #1940smakeup #trees #sky #photoshoot #modeling #model #flashbackfriday #ootd #ootdvintage #bringingitback #likegrandmalikegranddaughter #hbdgrandma (at Mendocino, California)

I asked Heidi to do my #hair and #makeup 1940s-style. 2 hours and 22 bobby pins later, this was the result. Boy, did she deliver! Love this look.

Apparently, it’s my Tumblr birthday. This calls for cupcakes and celebration!

Creating a Rangoli with @harisrashid

For more rangoli photos and videos, browse the #rangoli hashtag. For more of Haris’s rangoli projects and other artwork, follow @harisrashid on Instagram.

“I was always fascinated with rangoli designs and I really wanted to try it out,” says Kuala Lumpur artist Haris Rashid (@harisrashid) reflecting on the experience of creating his first rangoli for a local shopping mall during the annual Hindu holiday of Diwali (or Deepavali), which is observed this week. Many who celebrate the holiday draw rangoli—also called kolam or muggu—on streets and on the floors inside homes to bring good luck, and is an essential decorative tradition for this festival of lights.

Vividly colored rice, flour, sand or flower petals typically make up a rangoli, and the motif can be anything from geometric shapes to symbols of Hindu gods. For this particular project, Haris extensively researched the art form and even colored his own rice. “I wanted to make something unique while still keeping the vibe of Deepavali, so I chose a peacock and incorporated my artistic style. It took me three days to finish, but it was a lot of fun!”
