Sonoshee Costume Commission

Just wanted to share what I've been working on all week, a costume and wig commission of Sonoshee from the (absolutely fabulous and awesome) movie, Redline.



I'm so happy with how it's coming out (and also happy that I'm almost finished, costume commissions are way too stressful! o___o)

New Printer!

Decided to make a business investment and bought myself a laser printer. Just got it in the mail and the box is TERRIFYINGLY enourmous. I had my boyfriend take a picture but it just doesn't do it justice. Also, my dog Winston is an absolute camera whore. xD




I'm pretty excited about a new printer. My current inkjet is getting worse and worse, but this new printer will be great for helping me with making my jewelry, plus printing for pins, and even making labels for my boyfriend's homebrewed beer and cider. :D

Back from Knightrokon~

Got back from Knightrokon last night (which was awesome, since I literally live less than 5 minutes from it, so we didn't have to go far). It was a LOT of fun, and we got to meet some really nice new people (and see awesome people we've met before again!). We were kept super busy the whole time, and I need to make sure to spend a good amount of time stocking up again before Khaotic Kon. I'm now completely out of first aid kits, which I'll be redoing by getting fabric professionally printed (couldn't do this all week because my computer has been out of commission D:), and only have one Aperture Science case left, so I'll need to somehow set aside some time from making a bajillion hoodie orders to restock. xD

New products will be coming to the shop soon. After the con last night, I made a bunch of buttons with our professional button maker so that I can now sell some of my designs in the shop: Mass Effect and Skyrim:




I will be taking some time soon to get some pictures taken with them, so they'll be up in My Shop soon enough. Also to come soon are shark hats and cowls, Mass Effect earrings, and deluxe My Little Pony lanyards!

P.S. Keep an eye on the blog, I plan on putting up a promotion soon~

Tofu Hair Clips!

Made some new Tofu hair clips and they turned out looking SUPER CUTE!  I've been thinking of a way to make a Tofu that sits on your head for a while but I got stuck trying to figure out how to do it with a headband (which was just way more trouble than it was worth).  Luckily it finally clicked that I could use a hair clip attached to their butts to make it work!  I'm really excited to make more of these for Khaoticon in April but I will have a few available at Knightrokon tomorrow~
