My fave new artist

Kathryn Macnaughton uses pretty pastel colors on risque illustration images. i just love me some unicorn sandwich!

This sis pretty much what i wish my work could look like. super cute, fun colors, juxtaposition of different subjects, and a whiff of snark.

yeah. shes pretty...

I made some ginger snap cookies ....

but oh no! there seems to be a wolf in rancho unicorno! good thing i made a ginger snap castle for them to escape into...

next time i think i will add more molasses... and make more molasses icing

mermaid shell crown

made this guy out of lots of wire, the tulle from the bottom of my tail/skirt and shells



and put some combs on the side so it will stay

mermaid shell top

halloweeeeeen! yippie! the best part about dressing up, for me, is getting everything together. this part is almost more exciting than the actual wearing of it for the actual occasion. this year i told myself that i would make everything from scratch. i have the time, so i'm sticking to it. none of this buy something, alter it, modify it, and then piece something together. im talking creating everything from something that looked nothing like the finished product. how excitingggg.

so, on to the top. i did have a beaded top that was even the right color- thought about using it, but it just didn't seem right. i am so much happier with how this project turned out. after pondering for a while (a week, which is a long time for me to ponder about how to craft something and not have a good option) i came up with an idea that had me screaming 'i am a crafting genuis!' at my bf's face. well, if it worked. technically it seemed like it would, i looked it up to see if others have done it on this scale, and i couldnt find it (although before, a girl i saw did it in a makeup tutorial which gave me the idea)



but i am a crafting f-ing genius, and this is how it came out



this is what i used- barely anything! and actually less than this in the picture, in fact













and i actually dont have to wear a plastic shell that ties string around me neck, cutting off circulation to stay on, and makes me look like im a big sausage. no thanks.

hey i realized these also work as pasties... for the brave... and those not doing sf for halloween



woohoo. supportive, fun, and awesome as hell



almost there and really liking it :) more of the outfit to come

gone awhile

i havent posted anything in, gosh, what over a week? well dont think that i havent been doing anything. i have been. things that must take a while to dry and things that take patience. things for halloween costumes. soon to come. the uber experimental part of my costume... the top.
