Bob is Complete!! - mochi


















Is it me, or does his left eye look a little retarded? In any case, Bob is finished, and I'm so happy he came out okay. Unfortunately, I didn't get the centering right, so I was thinking of adding Bob's and Bub's names next to them to fix the problem...not sure how I'm going to do it exactly, all I know is that it's going to be going vertical. I just don't know if I should orient the lettering so it reads top to bottom, or just turn it 90 degrees. Blah. Sorry, I'm probably not making sense. >.< Anyway, I should be getting to bed...Human Resources Management certification exam tomorrow...egh. Good night, world.

Shadow Box Complete! - SamRI


So, starting late at night, and finishing even later at night. My NES controller shadowbox/something is complete! I have a great idea for a set/series....though the logistics will be hard. The flash messes with the white...it looks much better in person :) Now for sleep..and tests, and school..and dentists, tomorrow morning..

I finished the bubble! - mochi

...and that's all I got done... haha. It's been busy busy busy bee over on my part of the coast. In the past week, I flew home to the Bay from Seattle, went through my first week of non-kitchen classes, been slowly cleaning up my room (it's hard to see the progress when you look at it, but it's there..), took two midterms, made two kinds of chocolate Easter eggs (peanut butter cream cheese and coconut cream cheese) and maple carrot cupcakes with maple cream chese icing (topped with green coconut flakes and jelly beans to look like Easter eggs), scored a job at Candybar, went to an Easter Sunday brunch at a friend's and ate LOADS of yummy food, two short homework assignments, and a small fraction of my laundry up until I had to go to school today. But rest assured, as I watch Jack Bauer traipse around kicking terrorist ass tonight I will be continuing work on the stitching and maybe even some Perler stuff. Yay!

Btw...having a DVR rocks my socks...now I can catch up on House and whatever else I miss when I'm in class or being spacey! Woo!!

I'll post pictures after tonight's crafty-time..

School and downtime - SamRI

No new posts thanks to the evil that is "school." Mucho homework, and tests, and labs, and ect. So no time/energy for crafts :( I have been thinking about getting into baking a bit...but we'll see.

On the flip-side. Mochi apparently has been making progress with her cross-stitch...I can't wait to see...
