Second Tokidoki Bag

My friend told me that she's coming to SakuraCon (and is now my cosplay partner) so I had to make her a TokiDoki backpack to pair up with

Tokidoki Backpack

So previously I was thinking of doing a Tokidoki cosplay for sakuracon, but it's too much work for a costume that won't be so impressive.

But I still made the sick kick, cause it was too cute to pass up, and I made him into a backpack so I can use it all the time instead of a mismatching purse.

So maybe it won't be matching of my cosplay but it will be so cute that people might want a photo of it anyways.

Look it even has a zipper so it reallllllly works for storage.

Note to Self: Make Hat for Emily

Occasionally you'll find these notes to self throughout my blog. These are basically as they claim to be, notes to self. Things that don't get lost on a specific computer and browser's Favorite's list, or in an email, or on a piece of paper.

Note to self. Make this hat for Emily, use the same coloUr scheme.

Getting Ready for the Olympics

I love the Olympics and the winter Olympics are only 3 hours away from me this year and from my home country CANADA!! So I've got tickets to go see the Women's Ice Hockey game Canada VS Sloviakia (where's that?). I'm geared up with the Mascot stuff animals, clothing, and now my home made fleece hat. It's going to be cold in the ice area.

Craft Tags

This is my first attempt at Tags. I am quite proud of what I got. Because it was a part of a present and I had two ideas I really liked I ended up doing them back to back. I couldn't link the chain to the hole so I burnt the edges which ended up looking very cool.

Weapon of Agony

I asked what my friend wanted for Christmas, and she replied a gun.  So this is what I ended up with.  The real present is about 40+ steam punk craft items (cause she's always talking steam punk crafts).  Each piece is wrapped up individuall (as I quote her "u were sadistic.") and tapped together into a shape of a gun.

This her playing with the gun to start

Her sticky fingers that's she's waving in my face to prove that it's disgusting to be sticky

Selling Lolita HeadBands

I made this Japanese Lolita HeadBand a while back when I first got my sewing machine.  And recently after starting up my Etsy account http://smallrinilady.etsy.com/ I wanted to make more and share it with the world.  Ok so etsy ISN'T flooded with japanese lolita headbands, and I think I know why.  No one is buying.  ~sniff sniff~  Ok I don't really care that no one is buying, but no one is even looking and that's what makes me sad.  I guess Etsy has yet to hit it off with cosplay stuff.

Oh well, I decided to post some up on the LiveJournal Cosplay community http://community.livejournal.com/cosplay/ , let's see if anyone is interested. 

=====EDIT=====

I'm sad the new LJ moderator for the Cosplay forum not only deleted my post but immediatly banned me from their community because there are new rules say no selling lolita stuff (or anime fleece hats).  I thought that was extremely harsh, and don't see why Lolita is bad since so many cosplayers are into it.  In fact there is whole section of cosplaying for lolita cosplayers.  Gah they are toooo technical I want to hit them with something hard.  People were complaining about anime fleece hats?  I saw they were popular (in comments as well) in the community.  I dislike these new moderators
