UPDATE 11/2/09

I have discovered that if you stain dryer sheets with tea or coffee they mold in a few hours. ewww

I feel like i should throw them out but i want to show that i've been working. 

1.The brooch below was a mechanism failure and a tea stain tester... (molded after a few days)

2. next batch of dryer sheets stiffened with fabric starch, water, and coffee for color

-molded in a few hours while drying

3. starting over with water and fabric starch

oh how trial and error take up time :(
