This is Fantastic!



I love how old school this looks! When I first heard about it I was worried it was going to be claymation which tends to look a little cheesy. But the method they used reminds me of shows I used to watch as a kid :)

Enjoy!

Oh Golly!

Little Golli


I made this little dude for this little dudette's birthday. I think she liked him :)

I'm super proud I crocheted his pants. It was a big feat because I am a rubbish crocheter. For some reason I can never pick up the last stitch when making a rectangle so I end up with a triangle. So Golli's pants are constructed from several triangles. At least from the front you can't see what a mess his pants are!

The market been and gone

Finally I am blogging about the market that I did last month, Made on the Left. It was a lot of fun to do and it was a really great day for me. I think it had a lot to do with most of my stuff being on sale. And I was really happy with how I did the layout of my table! The string of bunnies at the front was a last minute decision to prettify my table and I think they work just swimmingly.

I won't be doing any markets again until towards the end of the year, gotta concentrate on finishing uni!

Blue blue sky

blue blue sky

Today was a beautiful day! The sky is a really ridiculous blue, it almost looks unreal. I love days like this, not too cold and not too hot. The sun feels like it caresses your skin. And to make it even better I received a fabulous package from ASOS.

I'm being neglectful again....

But I'm being neglectful with good reason! I've been catching up on my honours project work. At the moment I am up to the part of doing the final sketches for each page of my picture book. I haven't mentioned the story have I? Well, it's about a dog with a really big nose. His nose is very annoying and his family doesn't like him. But then he puts his nose to good use and redeems himself. I should have finished the sketch part a looooong time ago, I am so behind! So here's a glimpse of what I've been doing instead of blogging...
Honours project peek

This is my final double page spread to sketch out and it is a b**ch. I'm doing it in a comic style format (just this spread) and it's so tedious!!! I hate drawing this tiny ugh. And you see that pile of papers to the left? Those are all the pages I've done so far.

Oh and I must confess...as well as doing much needed honours work, I have been re-watching the TV series, Supernatural. I'm up to Season 3 now. Gosh I really love this series!!! I hope there are some others out there who like it too cos I have no one to squeal about it to...except my mom and she's not as obsessed as me, so there's only so much I can squeal about to her without her telling me shut up. The season 4 finale finally showed on Australian TV on monday and OMG so excited for the next season, wish it would come sooner!!!!

Also I need to make a post about the market I did, and re-open my etsy store! I was meant to open it last week but haven't got around to it yet...but don't hold your breath :)
