October Oldish Occasions!

Okay, October Oldish Occasions!  Wow! What an existence this beautiful spiral of life is. I guess this is a hello, life update and hopeful return to this lovely internet homey. Trying to see if easier for me to upload embed IG content instead of resizing.  Which made me weirdly more okay with being more goofy on IG posting with main goal of it being for BZP blogging and likely only seen by around 3 humans, haha.  October art first, blobbyblogbog below it! The doll obsession did indeed

Spice Season, Sculpting Succulents & Seat Sock Stitching!

OoOoh, sweet September salutations! Fantastic Fall to all!  Where to start? Is it being to real to reveal that I’m blogging from the floor? It basically became the disabled diaries here somewhere.apologies to all if I’m too real/honest and for my punctually pitiful proofreading.  Oh well, of current creativity I come to tell!  “You are literally Buddy the Elf”  ~my mom’s reaction to what I do while she’s at work.   Watermelon! From when my mom had to pay for t

Art Avalanche, Lapdesk Land, Crafting Crashes

Good Dawning, dear comrades!  And by golly, the months melt by.  I must so apologize for lack of coherence to reply well to such goodheartedness received here, unimaginable appreciation and thanksgiving to each of you! I owe so much to this site, the little, so-loved Lego city! A little homelife hurricane-eye era gallery I forgot about. Started sketch March 2022. I was shedding raretears after a dead-end doctor visit while drawing it, if I’m honest. But I lived through a lot

Stopmotions, Happi-mess and Some Clarity on the Sickness!

Translation: A blog so big I’m a bit worried about it breaking BZP. Greeting again pretend-friends!  Stacks of stuff from the home reno I’ve not individually posted but feel funny about doing so redundantly! Because in the excessive room-by-room Docs I planted them.  But here are a few of the decorations/homey Hapi-mess projects from the farmhouse. And new projects I’ve been too absorbed in/too sick  to document/edit. Sorry for over-downsized picture quality here and incoherent rambles

Our Unplanned Upcycled Century-Old Family Farmhouse

Buy your daughter LEGO, and she may (try to) rebuild your home one day? My grandfather rebuilt it first. Enormous gratitude to the family friends who we owe our lives to! And countless other helpers! Home is also not 100% done and I have zero perspective on what it looks like to others! It's been an insane one year process here. Former animal hoarder home. **Cannot continue chronicling without content warning.** Links contain descriptions and pictures of unsafe liv

Felt-lings, A Painting, Hammering at Three!

And wrappings, wildlife, & celebrating life! Yes, yay,  hello, some yellow!  I missed May , June’s come so soon!  I absolutely forgot to bright/lighting edit lots of these photos, oh no!     Speedy little something for my 95(?) year old  *granny’s birthday - *She rented a house to my parents in prehistoric times, and pseudo-adopted my mom, bro and I.  Odd to think we haven’t seen her in-person in centuries due to moves and medical crises on behalf of both partie

A Tale of Tatooine Twins, T-Shirt Totoro & The Child

March, oh my, almost flown by, I feel like the March Hare shouting "I’m late!" for my pretend post-date! Present proceedings: -Traumatic almost ends to a toxic situation. Thankful that the terriblest times typically cannot precisely recur in a particular person’s story. -Unrelated double ER day did damages that aren't bandaged, too drained to explain, brain & body badly bumbling since. Eating, drinking, moving, sleeping, thinking, I’m brilliantly bad at all that. But brea

Snow Angel Shroom, the Graphite Garden Bloom Resumes

…Salutations, sitefolk! Below is an essentially unedited (aside from forgotten fobs and photographs) Saturday write that was delayed due to a hectic hospital health fright the same night. I beg pardon for this whole nonsensical note. Numb, mumbling meager sentences, but I am mostly the master of my own muscles once more! Beyond brilliant to be back! (Also I forgot How To Blog and realized these images may be offensively oversized? I ordinarily email them to myself to auto-resize, my brain i

Winter Whirlwind, Cards to Send, Happy Ends Happening.

Ho ho...oh? How can it be already the season of snow? Here, a whole year, where did it go? But quite ready to wrap up a broken year with a bow!   Perhaps court again for fuzzy reasons won't be so bad if I pretend it's like Miracle on 34th street. At least it's the 15th, not the Eve. Edit, Oh dear, just in, we don’t have to go in person? Well, this is good news! [Sorry for some dark and grainy Fire tablet photos mixed in below. It's a mess here, I'm afraid.] Anyway,

Gobbles, Graphite and Gratitude!

Oh how blessed to be blogging! Even for a slight scrap of an entry, for it feels as though it’s been a century. Six months have slipped by in this adventure, under six more and current content shall be censored no more. In light of upcoming bird-day, I simply couldn’t shy away!   Little, tired scrapbook styled cards. Drawn ink doodle original, then the printed b&w and filled with colored pencil. Only 4. Sewn on chicken feather.   I haven’t a smidge of insight on wh

108+ Hours: Snow Leopard

Hello! A scan of Snow. Audiobooks and art do jolly the heart! 9x12, watercolor paper, pencil and acrylic. Drawing time: unknown, very undetailed sketch from years ago. Painting time: 108 hours. My scanner also has snipped off the edges here and no time to splice it. *afraid to upload higher quality due to uncertainty about the current content size limits.*     Done in 30 minute to one hour bursts (Gauze and braces to control the hand swelling/protest

A Curious Collection of Child-Created Plushies

A Curious Collection of Child-Created Plushies  (A photo backlog blog with redundant writing style. Compiled during the precious few minutes of freetime in the car. Editing sponsored by poor quality control and insomnia.) Once upon a world ago, when I first began teaching myself to sew and draft patterns for plush toys, my mom mentioned I should take a photo with myself and all these curious critters I’d dreamed (dragged?) into existence. At the time I said I couldn’t becaus

Cake, shirt, life.

..Rareactualreallifeentry.. It has been wild lately. Medical TMI warning, I’m sorry in advance. But first, a of couple creations. Just a shirt and chess-cake cheesecake for my brother. Stoked that he finally was able to visit. The cake was really rough-looking.I made charcoal-dyed lemon butter-mint dough to cover it because I didn’t have fondant. Kind of floppy and hard to work with, and was totally last-minute.  Finally got to apply some newly-learned sewing techniques

Maybe a human-sized bird nest...

Hatched another wildly random idea... A human-sized Robin's egg bird nest bed/lounge chair. It's made of foam crib mattresses, sheets, poly-fill, offensively-strong glue, paint and elastic. Because I have always wanted one of these....since this idea popped into my head two months ago. ..Can I use the excuse that Porg demanded it?  You can make one too, if you want. I've made photo instructions on Flickr. For some reason it shows the last steps in the album

Baby Bloom, A Child from Acorn Squash, + Pumped about Stumps

‘Ello! Can’t sleep, might as well pile it up in a big blog heap.  9x12, Ticonderoga, mechanical pencil, watercolor paper. Unknown public-domain-reference subjects, except one with my grandma’s floofy dog + mysterious dog, presumably from another relative...?    I did a bad thing.  Sneaked down the street and stole a sign at 11 at night.  Forgot the wire cutters, took a second trip with double the fright.  Drew the cat, zip tied the sign back.

Fabric Forsythias and a Few Flops

12 hours on flowers! The promised eternal imposters. Pattern made from tracing the real flower shape. Cut from two layers of cotton, prior fused with spray adhesive and ironed together.  Assembled with Tex 70 upholstery thread, just a few stitches, one bead and leaving long strings.   Growing….Overflowing     Tacky glue, Mildly dilute. Thread tails taped to hangers to try.  Tied some to a twine vine.    And made a branch f

Sugar Plum Poppy, Baby’s 1st Xmas, and Wintery Weirdness.

Sugar Plum Poppy! Her Christmas gift. Wanted to make a camo cardigan for Pug, but he’s sometimes a fashionably disagreeable little slug.  6.5 hours Made from a shrunken thermal shirt, scraps, and serged 3x fullness skirt from grandma’s basement gingham roll.  Pops, being a gracious midnight-thirty model.  Decorating Without: A fireplace, a plan, energy, budget, indoor lights Or a tree! ♫Every morning, every evening Ain't we got fun? Not mu

125+ hrs: Mothstumes + Mother's Knits ft. Baby Yoda

Social butterfly? Not I. Awkward moth? A cut from my same cloth!  Costumes, and could not for the life of me concoct a clever cinematic story, much less meet a human to model. Made do, a messy music mashup of perturbing posing, 83 minutes of recording, swapping, screenshotting, and chopping into a 52 second video, then shrinking back to the studio.  My mom: “It’s too fast, my eyes!” *Contemplates incinerating more seconds off*.    What's all this? It star

Koi, Cake and Holiday Makes

Greetings!   My brother visited on his exact birthday, a merry, now rare, treat. Skyline Lemon Cheesecake, design haphazardly generated using what I could find about two hours before baking it. Based on his city. Engulfed in lemon butter-mint dough and brush painted with gel food coloring and charcoal powder. Used an X-acto to cut out the window lights and filled them with yellow. Two hours decorating time, but I feel like the colorful clouds resemble a toxic explosion a little m

Astroturf Upholstery & Dino Decor

Upholstery from $10 hotel chairs from a market years ago, store display crib mattress foam, brown astroturf(?) rolls someone abandoned behind the store where my dad works (people dump the oddest articles there, once even a freezer still full) , PUL scraps, spray adhesive, garage spray paint and two $5 blankets. ~63 hours for two chairs. My mom Never any money for house things or what she needs. It gets to me. I cannot buy it...make it? I'll try it!

FaceFaceMask Tutorial and Other Weirdness

Just a vague tutorial, recent random artstuffspam and things. So a lot of months ago I made a mini costume 3D face-face mask just to see if it was possible.  Wanted to try again on a larger one for someone else aka my mom the test subject, so here’s how to make one, if you’d like. Supplies: One cotton face mask that matches the skin tone of the human model. I used a one-layer mask so the paint wouldn’t stain the lining. Paint mask before sewing to lining for multiple layers.

SHOEMAKING ADVENTURES

First try at leather shoes + shoemaking with my lasts. Started them about five months ago but didn’t have the time/supplies to complete them until last week. Ballet flats don’t normally use welted sole construction, but I wanted to try the technique. Used the narrow German welt method. Made from a 20ish year old suede jacket (outer and lining), ¼” thick veg tan leather (insoles, outsoles, welt), faux leather (stiffener), ¼” wide leather reinforcement tape, ⅛ in thick cork (filler), ba

Chipmunk, Costumes, and Cotton Clouds.

Recent chipmunk, 9X12 acrylic + pencil on watercolor paper. Drawing time: ? Painting time: 42 hours. The drawing was from last year and not heavily detailed (done with a flashlight during a road trip).   Drawings from the past few months, 9x12s. I lacked access to a reference photo for one of them, so that accidentally resulted in a drawing of me as a mere primordial mush’. The last two are smaller, old/not very good (2018-2019, flashlight car art) ones with some newly added
