summer = DIY

After working in the costume shop this year at school I am feeling more confident in my own sewing. Therefor there are definitely some things I want to make, I am glad that I am still a student because I get to have my summer's off..TECHNICALLY I should be graduating this spring, BUT i am a transfer student and I changed majors which set me back TWO YEARS, siiiigh duck, but at the same time, I look at my life and I so would not be ready to graduate right now. I mean I do refuse to get married until I graduate but as I get older it seems like the longer it's going to be before I can do soooo..


but I digress, I'm talking about DIY ya'll...I have had the time to sit around and think about this today because I have food posioning..YAY! DX So instead of remodeling I am in the bed..boo hoo..

Here are some of my summer prospects:

A demin skirt, very cottony and soft demin, with a button up front...

similar to this one on candypop


I always wanted a skirt like this, but because I have a funny butt that makes everything shorter in the back, so I like to make my own skirts so when it gets breezy..I think you catch my drift..hahah!

I mentioned this before but I am going to make this head band..
I already got the fabric (only 1.99 a yard and I only bought a 1/4 yard :D ) I bought it in the fabric district of Chicago which is WAY cheaper than buying crap from Joanns, AND the quality is the same the designers use in the city..

I want to make some miumiu imitations like this cat collar thanks to petsugar! I'm sure it's going to look sooo fetch in my morigal looks!

plus I want to make these shorts with this fabric I got from Ikea, it has a bird pattern as well, and I think it would be so cute ! thanks Sasa for this idea!

I'm really love this animal print look for spring. I'm all about incorporating your own style into the mix. It doesn't all have to be nautical stripes and denim shirts. Why not be you too?

I really want to make a bow tshirt, super simple don't you think? all i need is like an american apparel t and some cotton polkadot fabric...


I am really digging my curls and I want to rock more gal with what God gave me so I am interested in making some mad headresses!

i love this ad!

Finally, I really want to make a pair of ruffled shorts. These ones from free people have the right idea. I am not really into cutesy cute. I hate that, atleast on my body, but I do like some touches of sweetness. I really want to make these out of a khaki cotton, maybe in an army green would be cute :)


Other than that, I think i might dye parts of my hair purple. I'm feeling kinda BORED..hah!

PLUS, gulico is NO MORE in zipper..WHHHHY, she was my favorite, i hope to see her in something else soon!!!


beware of raw eggs yall

love,

oh by gosh by golly....

It's time for mistletoe toe and holly....

Hey guys, ITS ALMOST CHIRSTMAS! And for some of you it already is Christmas! But regardless merry Christmas everyone!

Today I finished all my holiday crafting with love, I also made Panda a batman book cover with a moleskin sketch book inside, but I forgot to photograph it x_x sowwies!

For all my loves I made them cards outta old skool construction paper!



For my good friend I made him a plush tape with a jump drive in it with some of our favorite bands!


For my other great friend I made him a plush version of his awesome mustache (lol)



But he also comissioned me to make him a plush turtle for his niece, isn't she adorable!! I wanted to keep her so bad!! I mimicked her shell from a roller derby girl.WHIP IT!



I also made myself some K-Drama inspired earring today whilst chatting with my mommy. I really love how they turned out, they are so adorable!Great for my new wardrobe!


A few hours ago my brother, Panda and I were making cookies, we will put icing on them tomorrow but here's a sample of Panda's Solid Snake (big boss) Sugar Cookie, intense right? Got to love it!


Anyway today will be a short post, I need to get in the bed before Santa passes over my house! I hope you all get what your little hearts desire, be grateful for what you already have and I also hope you all spread the love and warmth of Christmas throughout the next couple of days, even months! Spread Love! (tell someone you love them today!) Thanks you all for sharing it with me...I leave you all with some silly snaps of the season in Chicago...(merchandise mart and santa "L" train)




Imagine having to take this during evening rush hour...lols!


Have a holly jolly Christmas! Oh by golly!
