Plans

I Can Fly, illustrated by Mary Blair, is a nighttime favorite for us. I love the her style, I love the colors, I love the whimsy. I love that red chair. I can't stop thinking about it.

I'm going to try to make one in miniature. My plan is to find an existing 1:12 chair -- probably something with a different back. Then I will bend wood or something to try to make the oversized roundy back.

Do you think that's even possible? I was thinking of starting with this.

I bet you could do it, or get pretty darn close. We love that book. P loved it so much I bought multiple copies, cut out & framed the pages, and hung them on the walls of her playroom.
