DIsney orgy on a day of love

Happy Valentines day everyone!



Okay, okay...this is what Phillip got me.

Want a better look?



Sorry if you're offended by classic characters being rowdy and perverted, but I freaking love it. The title is Disney Memorial Orgy. It's by Paul Krassner, who used to work for the Disney company. And it is amazing.


After present opening we went to go get some sushi. Which, by the way, was super delicious. No pictures of the food, because we were too hungry!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day of love. :)

Steampunk and Lace

New skirt! And about time too. I dislike hemming circle skirts, so I decided to trim it in a double layered lace instead and am so glad I did! There's also a cute fabric covered button from my stash, which goes so well. I love it!







I love the lining fabric as well. It almost looks tea stained or something.

Grab it while you can!

Buttons, buttons...

Yes, more of those. I can't help it! They're just so stinken cute. The thing that's especially pathetic is how happy I get when I hold a huge handful of them. Anyone? Or is it just me?

The weather outside is...weather

It annoys me when people comment about the weather all the time. Or watch the weather channel all the time. Or anything like that. The weather is...weather. It's there, it happens, and you dont need to know what it's going to do every second of every day.

That being said, you should look at this snow. :)

Unexpected and beautiful. The best kind.

A use for scraps.

Meet my new obsession...

I love making these! It's such a great way to use up all the little scraps that I have laying around. How cute would these be on a jacket or sweater? I have a small army of fabric covered buttons all made up, now to put them to use! Some of them ( including these) are just going to be sold as supplies, but I can't wait to use others in upcoming projects.

Creative.

Elephant wristlet. Finally, a new item!

I haven't made anything in a very long time. Work just keeps sapping all my energy, and I just haven't felt like staying up late to sew. Well, no more of that! I'm going to try and pump out at least one item a day. That can be art, pouches, pillows, whatever. Just something creative.

We'll see what happens. ;)

Making faces.

Today has been a lovely, lazy day. We took the dog for her vet visit, and then came back home for some silly picture taking. I always have my camera with me, but sometimes completely forget to take any pictures! I need to get better at that. :)

Happy face...

Or in Phillip's case...slightly scary face....

Sad face....

His faces are so much more impressive.

Go go, Power Rangers.

I hope you all had a fantastic Halloween weekend!

Phillip and I went downtown with some friends, but it had started to rain so we just decided to head on home and have a little party. Here are a few pictures from that night!



Speed Racer and Red Ranger (boyfriend). Will fight giant monsters for food!


Me and Phillip. I'm wearing my absolute favorite hoodie shrug from SmarmyClothes.
Our super totally awesome pumpkin cake! Not pumpkin flavored, though...

Me and Kayla ( Alex from Clockwork Orange)


I love my friends. ( And, apparently, so does my boyfriend!)

Here's hoping you all had a great time!

Etsy Finds - Candy Colored

I thought I'd share my latest Etsy obsessions! These are totally on my x-mas wishlist...if they aren't snatched up by then!

1. This super awesome Candy Ribcage Tee by AppleNoggin. Is that not the most amazing shirt ever? Must. Have.


2. Super sweet Neopolitan Cupcake scarf , made by KellyzKreationz. Perfect for making cold weather much more fun!


3. Vivifromage always has the coolest clothing. This handmade sushi skirt is no exception!


4. I just love this mini Lime Sherbet print by Kecky. The colors just pop! How pretty would this be hanging on a wall?



Here's hoping Boyfriend gets the hint. ;)

Thrift Haul - 10/23/09

Thrifting today! I didn't find too much, but got some neat-o stuff. Well...I like them anyway. Phillip wasn't too amazed by the Hercules plate that I just had to have. ;) All in all, it came to about $1.20.

1. Red polkadot skinny belt
2. Super sweet rainbow mug
3. Megara plate (come ON!)
4. Vintage...food fabric? I actually dont know what this is...but I like it. ;)

Oh...and this...

Sometimes I get the urge to sing "A whole new world" in the car. So sue me.

Birthday time with Blink 182.

My 21st birthday was on Wednesday, and it was wonderful! I woke up to a couple surprises...

This amazingly awesome Harley Quinn figure statue from Ame-Comi.

And Alice in Wonderland on dvd!


Then we left for Atlanta to see these guys in concert! Traffic was hell, but finally getting to see Blink 182 in concert was so worth it. The energy in the crowd was crazy! They put on a wonderful show.









Tomorrow afternoon I'm having a fall themed birthday party. Treats for all!

October and...a puppy?

This morning, I was doing some reading on the couch when I heard some rustling outside the front door. The cat heard it too, and was freaking out (as she does...because she's batshit crazy), so I opened the door and looked outside.

See what I found? This poor, pitiful, super skinny dog!

She was shaking horribly (it was a cold morning) and was really skittish, she wouldn't come anywhere near us. So we dug out a bag of cheap catfood and poured her out a little pile, which she quickly gobbled up. We've since gotten dog food and a bowl of water for her, which we put on the porch.

She's finally let us get near enough to pet her, and even nuzzled our hands! She's breaking my heart, so adorable and badly cared for. So we're getting her some flea medication, and scheduling a vet visit. I just hope nothing too serious is wrong with her (she's limping), and that it's not going to cost an arm and a leg to get her in good health.

What do you think? Do you think I'm crazy for taking her in? I know it's going to be a lot more work, but she needs love so badly. I'd love to hear your thoughts, or adoption stories!

Etsy Finds - Autumn lovelies

Hello folks! Fall is in the air, and boy am I excited. Almost ridiculously so. I adore autumn, it's the best season ever so I've started celebrating early. Here's a small selection of lovelies from the pages of Etsy to get you in the mood. *Yeah, baby*


1. First up is this very cool necklace from BeatBlack. You should definitely give this shop a once over, as there is a great selection of curious and strange poly clay jewelry. They've got brains, candy...what more could a girl want?




2. Yes, I know you all probably already know about emandsprout . But look at these shoes! Completely adorable. They've got so many designs and sizes, so you're bound to find something you can't live without.




3. I heart acorns. And acorn couples with little bows? Amazing. These little cuties are from thetinyfig. They're having a sale right now, 50% off everything in the shop! Whatta deal, eh?



4. And last, something from me . I'm getting into the Halloween spirit too! A set of 2 patchwork placemats, perfect for a couple or small family. I've got a small stash of seasonal supplies, so expect more awesomeness! Maybe even some...dare I say it...jewelry? A first for me, so we'll see how it turns out.


Have a fantastic weekend!

New art from DragonCon!

This past Sunday, a group of friends and I went to DragonCon in Atlanta. This was our second time going and we had a great time! Awesome costumes, great artists, and overpriced autographs galore! We only got a couple autographs, one from Tom Felton i.e. Draco Malfoy, who was so nice and funny (and super cute...I had a geeky fangirl moment...), and another from Doug Bradley, who played Pinhead in Hellraiser.

I also got some prints from some very talented artists!

This first one is by Iris Chen. I loved all her stuff, and looked through her books about 10 times before I decided on this. You should definitely visit her website and have a look around!


Yuki.
The second artist that I purchased from was fantasy artist Ash Evans. This little shop was very friendly and had a huge selection of different prints! I got two, Witching Hour and Wonderland. Ash's website also sells a variety of candles, fabric, greeting cards, and many other items. Go check it out!

Wonderland.

Willy-Nilly

I won a giveaway! My first ever from Willy-Nilly Waterlily. I got a couple very cute little Japanese iron ons. I'll have to find the perfect project for it.

You should definitely check out their very cute shop, where you can find things just like this! Adorable crocheted things to make you smile. :)

Super Hero Wannabe

I love, love comic books.

Batman, Gen 13, Nightwing, JTHM, anything. And I think I need this outfit, just so everyone knows how deeply my love goes. :)
