I'm sorry XD

I'm sorry I've been absent lately. I've been looking around at making things and relaxing becuase I quit my job (:

I need new batteries for my camera (WTF.)

and I've been drawing and painting some lately. Check these out:

Epic Shoes. And other stuff. It's been a while.

Okay. So I had these new shoes; off-brand, black converse style things, really inexpensive shoes.

Comfyest shoes in the world. So I decided; why not make them even better : D They were nice as just plain shoes, sure, but I like them better now:

So anyways. They took me pretty much all day ._. I hadn't noticed it was this time already. I put a whole bunch of pins on the front of the shoes, and fabric painted the rest. For now. There's much I want to add. (:

I guess it's been a long time since I posted anything. This is the biggest thing I've made since....hmm Toothless, I guess.  Not a lot to update, last weekend I got to see Cirque du Soleil, which was one of the most stunning things I've ever seen. Also, Deathly Hallows pt. 2. IF you have ever the chance to see this movie SEE IT NOW it is amazing and incredible.

See y'all laterrr.

Toothless!!

So awhile ago (I think in March) I finally watched "How to Train Your Dragon" for the first time...it was ADORABLE... I loved it. I loved it so much that it's one of my favourite movies : D

So I decided, why not look for an amigurumi pattern on how to crochet a little Toothless <3 so here's a few pictures (they aren't very good pictures, he looks much more awesome in person (; )

The eyes are made of fleece (yellow-i had no fluorescent green), and felt, for the black. For the pattern though, his feet turned out too big, so I had to make my own pattern for each leg.

Terrible back picture >_< You can barely notice his wings q.q

Top view of the back.

There you have it. Make your own with the pattern here http://sarselgurumi.blogspot.com/2011/05/toothless-amigurumi-pattern.html 

^_^. See y'all later!

Update! Jeans

So I just wanted to show you guys something. My embroidered bellbotttom jeans, used to look like:

Now look like:

With a little bit of acrylic paint, I turned them into somethinga little less boring (: I always get tired of boring, plain jeans. These are the fourth pair that I've painted : D Usually when I look around online I see people paint clothes/shoes/other with fabric paint. Seems natural, since it is fabric they're painting XD

But I use acrylic paint. At first I thought it would wash out of clothes, but it doesn't. Over time, it has the possibility of fading a little, but it stays in great. I should take pictures of the other pairs I've painted ; D

Here's a closeup of the flowers:

There you have it (:

See you guys later!

Happy Tuesday (:

Hello all!
Got some things to show you today... (AND FINALLY the phone case, XD)

anyway. I got bored yesterday/this morning and so I made these:

They are so easy to make and take about two minutes each... XD All you do is take two longish pieces of string, twist them up, fold in half, twist up again, fasten onto wrist. So easy, and they don't bother me, so that's why I made a lot of them XD They don't get annoying to wear after a while.

And I finally promised to take a few pictures of my phone case (my camera eats batteries! I took four pictures (post before last) and it died q.q)

Here it is. It's pretty plain since i only took one colour to work, but it fits really snug around my phone (:

Those two (Ven and Aqua from KH: Birth by Sleep (: )are just my little phone charms xD

There y'all have it. I have a week off (and I might quit, too) so I'll have a lot of time to post new stuff. Awesome! baibai for now ^_^

Ugh...work.

I'm getting through working 26 hours in four days.. >_< It's not fun when I have to take care of the worst kids in the world. Not to mention I get treated like shit by them and their mum >_> I want to quit, but I don't know what else I'd do.

So I don't have much time to update. Although I did crochet a very simple phone case along with some sort of..washcloth XD I didn't know what else to make during an eight hour "working" day... >_>

Hopefully tomorrow or the next day I'll be able to post some pictures up. I have a lot of project ideas, so keep in touch :D

Random Stuff today :)

Hi all..just got home from work : P

Not fun at all...I got three days left then about a whole week off :D

Anyway, I have some random pictures for today (got the camera working :D!)

The first is something I've been wanting to share for a while, it's the smallest paper star I've made to date so far :D so small that I can fit it in a locket so I can keep it with me (so I don't lose it, y'know... I tend to be careless >.<) But in my carelessness I went swimming with the locket on >_< so the star kind of faded.. xD

Yesterday and the day before I was working on making my bellbottom jeans (made by me :D) look cooler, so I did this to them:

I embroidered the  side which  is right  above my right  foot. I plan to add more later because it seems sort of.. "out of place" right now..

Lately I've also been addicted to crocheting "amigurumis" which, honestly, is so relaxing.

I love them ^_^

I was also lucky enough to get a picture of one of our lazy dogs XD all she does is sleep, or fight with her sister or her mum. geez.

^_^

Well that's all for today...hopefully more creations tomorrrow! I need to make myself a phone case...

Rings (:

Long day at work...well, not really, just seemed long. and annoying >_<  But I'm glad that I have tomorrow off. I never had a lot of time to work on anything new, and I'm lucky I have to motivation to post this picture up. (I have to apologize for the picture quality; no batteries and I took the picture with the phone camera.)

So here's the best I could do:

Five rings; all pretty basic "friendship bracelet" style patterns. (: 

 

Alright people, there you have it (: 

Sorry I feel lazy today >_< More will be done tomorrow ( day off-woohoo!)

Day one--let's see (;

As I'm sitting here typing this I'm wondering just how many people are going to actually read it, and I'm smiling as I do type it.
 I love this--just writing about anything that drops off my mind.

I need to get my camera working again--then pictures will start to appear on here. Until then, I'll just ramble on about awesome, pointless stuff.

I really don't know why I'm so lazy--I love taking hardcore, photography-like pictures, but my poor camera has got close to no attention in the past couple months. Because of my laziness I've been taking pictures with the camera on my phone, which isn't nearly as good. So I'll be better, XD

Today....working on rings (the friendship bracelet style way ;D) and enjoying sitting next to my little flower on the windowsill. I'm not sure if it's alive or not. =/  When the rings are done I'll get pictures (hopefully!) of them up here later, maybe ^_^ me and my laziness...

Hello no one ;)

I just started this blog hoping people would be interested in it. I'll try to update once a day hopefully, to get me through the summer at least.

I love crocheting and painting and drawing and everything :D I'll post pictures of what I make on here a lot so y'all can check stuff out.

I'm here to inspire and show people how I see life and hopefully can inspire them one day, too (: that's all I want from this world.

I'm hopeful that people will see this and follow what I post on here (: that would be so AWESOME! I love meeting complete strangers hoping I'll meet friends :D

Anyways, if y'all are interested, please follow/leave a comment and I'll be more than happy to talk with anyone (:
