One of the latest brainstorms to come out of the amazingly fertile and wacky minds of the Mavens at The Creative Underground was a panty-shaped book collaborative with the theme "Put on your big girl panties and deal with it!" Yes, I said "panty-shaped"! The idea was to offer up inspiration and coping skills on those days when life gets the better of you - in the shape of female undergarments.
A number of participants have posted sneak peeks on their blogs. Some have been very demure showing only a glimpse of their creations and leaving much to the imagination. However, "demure" seems to become a mute point as one gets older (see previous birthday posts).
So, here is my contribution in all its glory. I hope no one is offended. It is, after all, a "panty swap". ;-)
"Kiss my grits" is a reference to a 70's sit com. If you are too young to know what I'm talking about, please don't tell me that. The "loops" are for attaching it to the book.
Swap participants: The lace may vary from what is shown above.

Your panties are BEAUTIFUL! I love that you made them into thongs! The accent of the flower and the rub-ons are wonderful. And i remember the show "Alice" with KISS MY GRITS very well. Does that make me too old to wear these thongs..LOL!!
