Today Aug. 6th, is Andy Warhol's birthday, so I thought it would be fun to dig out this old picture of my Campbell's Soup paper dress.  Yes, the dress was made out of paper, and I wore it for Halloween, in 1968.

Mom has always enjoyed finding fun things to buy, and Campbell's had a promotion selling the dress, and the bag I am holding.  I don't remember what I thought about it then, but now I wish I still had the dress, maybe it would be fun to frame and hang on the wall.

The 60's were a great time to be alive, and I feel sorry for any of you who missed them.  It seemed as if the world was coming alive, and doing so in living technicolor (except this picture).  I remember getting brightly colored clothes, dangling earrings, and for the first time in my life, my straight hair was in style, YES.
