 
 Two years ago, at Christmas, I bought Destiny a pack of temporary tattoos. Each tattoo is a chinese pictogram, with the english translation below it.I had to buy them, because one was the pictogram for "destiny".She's used up all the tattoos, but I had the foresight to scan one into the computer.Destiny's first grade teacher recommended labelling each student's school supplies, to avoid confusion. I printed out a sheet of pictograms on clear stickers; Destiny's crayons, markers, pencil box, and folders all have her logo on them.In addition to pencils & paper, Destiny needed an "art shirt," something to get paint on without dirtying her school clothes. I was puzzled; how do I continue the Destiny cobranding on the shirt?Solution: stencil. One copy of the pictogram was printed off, and with a steady hand and sharp Exacto knife I produced a reasonable template. A few tests with the spraypaint can (burgundy at Des' request), and we were ready to mark her paint shirt.However, nobody should trust me with a stencil and a full can of paint. If Destiny had her way, the walls would be marked as well.
That's great, though! Not
only is it unique and ultra-
cool, but there will be
absolutely no doubt as to
what is hers! --Tess,  8/26/2002 14:07:05
