hiiiiiiiiiiiii <3

happy new week ^^ 

ᗰOᑎᗪᗩY & TᑌEᔕᗪᗩY 



The tote is finished at last! I sewed on the last of the details, buttons, and chain. I love how she turned out. I’ve been wanting to put together a collage-style bag like this for a while. It’s making me realize I have a few pretty minimal tote bags that would be so fun to add to in the future. Projects for another day ^^

Some sketches from mid-week <3


ᖴᖇIᗪᗩY, ᔕᗩTᑌᖇᗪᗩY, & ᔕᑌᑎᗪᗩY 

Some paintings from this weekend  :-)

I want to call the clown painting and the bathtub painting finished but I’ll probably have to sleep on it- I’m not really positive yet. There’s always a point in the painting where I overthink everything. 

In the third painting- “and then, all at once” I keep re-thinking the pattern on the mask. I wanted this version to be decorated with kind of abstract flowers made from oil pastel. Sometimes I look at past iterations of this painting and feel as if I’ve overdone it. Sometimes those early versions are truly the sweet spots and you never know it until you've done too much. I think I’ll call her done now, though. Maybe one day I’ll make a stripped-down version. A thought for another day, I guess.


& The cow painting is new <3 just a simple cutie project i'm working on


I’ll also finally get to share the projects I’ve been working on this upcoming week! At long last.


I got to spend some time browsing second-hand stores for more costume pieces, too. I got a beautiful flowy, blue-grey scarf I want to use for my Bloop costume.

At this point, the design of the costume has gone through a few iterations. The first was the initial design, but these are some other designs I thought up.  (excuse the crudity of this model)

I’m really into the idea of using a mini skirt and top over a body suit these days. I think I may just keep shopping around and see what comes together from my findings. I can’t wait to keep you updated :-)

𝕋𝕙𝕚𝕤 𝕨𝕖𝕖𝕜: more costume stuff & maybe some jewelry

I’ll be out of town this weekend, but will try to work on some odds and ends from my jewelry pile before I leave.

I’ll also keep an eye out if I end up getting to shop around at more thrift stores, etc for costume parts.

What are you going to be for Halloween? I get so into the idea of DIYing my costumes that I think up new ideas all the time. You can be anything!

 

Thank you sooo much for stopping by

I appreciate it more than you may know
