THE story of THE ABC’S
Embroidering Bravo: A Fan's JOURNEY THROUGH AN Alphabetical Encyclopedia OF NON-SENSE THAT WE LOVE.
As a dedicated Bravo fan, 2020 became a year of rediscovering the Housewives franchises and delving into new crafts. Embroidery became my chosen hobby, a slow and meditative process that complimented my Bravo viewing.
While navigating the intricacies of embroidery, I found myself jotting down potential quotes from the shows, organizing them alphabetically. This process evolved as I decided to incorporate the Housewives faces who uttered those iconic lines into my embroidery pieces. Thus leading to a series of intricate drawings. The sheer volume of quotes and drawings quickly became overwhelming as each seemed more appealing than the last. However, upon reflection, I realized that I inadvertently created an alphabetical encyclopedia, in the form of a unique and deeply personal Bravo-inspired project.
2020 may have brought unexpected challenges, but it also became a period of creative exploration and homage to my favorite Housewives moments.
Man, chat-gtp sure did make this sound a little stalkery, no? lol. You get the jist. I started one project and poof, it became another. And here we are in all the glory of it. I’m so proud of this. She’s STUNNING. Just like my gorgeous dog Merv. Amirite?
Side note: I’m impressed you made it this far in the About page! Kadooze to you!
