Noobies

21. now that's a number. unfortuantely I've been warned by many that "it's all down hill from here"...

on a brighter note, the party to celebrate my 21 bile filled years on this earth is this weekend. A mad hatter theme; to accomodate all those freaks and nit-wits i've befriended over the years. Should be fun really!

I've therefore made this hat...

Actual hat made from stiff felt. flowers from soft felt, embroidery and buttons, ruffled ribbon lace around the edge, and some silver balls. Delightful! I've attatched it to a headband, and it fixes onto my head - slightly to the side. :D It's also tiny. way smaller than my hand. WOOP!

In other delicious news, I was given a STEAMPUNK RING!!! from Felix for my birthday :). It's pretty much the greatest: SEE

Pegasus: The Mighty Colt


My lovely car, my first car, my little pride and joy...is no more.

Well...it's now with another family. My parents decided that Peg wasn't the car for my anymore, and they replaced her with a green Cino named Veena.

I loved Peg so much, so as a tribute to her and the adventures we had I'm going to make a zine... starting tonight.

Algorithm March i.e. the best things in the world




This is by far the greatest thing on earth. It's from a Japanese kids show called Pythagora Switch. :D SO COOL!

Op Shoppy Goodness

Hey Thrill Seekers.

It's been a while between meals. Assignments, plays, and life in general has kept me 'a-rocking' and 'a-rolling'.
I went to the library today, and found a new little Op Shop on the way :) I found three lovely treasures


This little piggy bank. HE IS THE MOST ADORABLE THING EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe he will convince me to save a bit more money!


This GORGEOUS pendant of a Japanese lady in a kimono. It's hand painted on a shell type thing i think. So pretty



And this Genuine Leather, made in Italy shoulder bag. OMG! Been looking for one of these for ages, and got it for an awesome price!

Yay! I also spent the long weekend making this 'Big Bunch' of Pastel coloured flowers for BlackBird Corner.

Now I have 2 more assignments until Im free for the holidays!

Well, report to write. Gilmore Girls to watch.

Gettin' busy with it

Well, I don't even have time to blog, and as we all know procrastination is the thief of time.

But screw that. Here's the newest creations that, as soon as I get a spare second, will go to Blackbird Corner.



A rainbow bunch of flower buttons, and a little Hearty Brooch

Also, Im delighted to have stumbled across a new penpal! I can't wait to send her my zine, and some lovely letters!! :D
