Holidays!

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,

T-Rex Train, Sock Octopus, Phone Loan, & Hospital Adventure on My Own?

T-Rex Train Video My dad has proven not to be steadfast around balloons again They have the peculiar habit of swooning him Understandably, however What a guilty pleasure ...a T-Rex as light as a feather! (Dad’s antique toy train, balloons attached with dental floss, a snapped dowel, a giant zip tie and tape. Metal insulation tape track toothpicked down, fishing line to drag him across the ground.) And the BTS mess: Dino Derailment Video Had to make a

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?

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

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!

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!

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

Pencil Portrayals, Purple Party, & a Chia Child

Feels so fine to frolic about in this fresh format!    Bugging my family. Pencil on tiny 3x4 watercolor paper, then laminated. As you may spot, I do not excel in matching the inner card decor to the outer. The predicament of buying primary colored card stock.  “.. Loved the World” -9x12.  Isn't it great, this place? The people? So many caring faces here on earth. I love each and every one of you, dear humankind. “What About Us/Medical Zebras.

Painting, Panda Pumpkin + Plant Lanterns

Just some artstuffs!    9X12 Lop ear bunny, finished last month. Acrylic, pencil and watercolor paper. I feel like the leaves look kind of odd/over-detailed....The reference photo had a bokeh background. It's so hard to decide when it's done.  Drawing time:? Painting time 31 hours. A happy little pumpkin panda with bamboo. White wood fill markers and black china markers will stick to pumpkin skin (Yaygaragestuff) . That color wheel feel when an art idea materi

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

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

My LEGO Totoro

(So, it seems as though blogging is allowed for all users now….If the rumors are true….My apologies for trying this if it is actually not permitted...)   This was the result of a random idea and illness-induced sleep deprivation. Very messy due to limited bricks. I haven’t watched “My Neighbor Totoro” in years, but this scene really seemed fun to build. I must admit, I am very disappointed in myself for forgetting to make the black umbrella to hang on the sign....frantically ran outside t

My feet mysteriously turned into blocks of wood...?

Or maybe blocks of wood turned into my feet.  After three years of making inferior-quality fabric shoes (with some slippers, some flat shoes, and ballet slippers being the only not-absolutely-weird-looking exceptions)  the realization that a shoe last is a necessary thing has soaked in...Thanks to the discovery of some new, enthralling shoemaking tutorials on Youtube! Apparently one needs a last before they can make leather shoes. I couldn’t find a wooden shoe last in my size any

Mini Mush Plush, Bear Wear, Cards +...Flower Cart?

Hello! Painted this little Totoro in a cartoon style a long while ago (fall?), a style I never do so feels wrong, but wanted a laminated cover for password book. The printer didn’t do so well, but I’m too chicken to laminate the original. I think I used pen too? Can't remember. That’s Porg, up there.   Some last-minute ornament friends for my dad’s coworkers. Wonderfully fun waiting room hand-amusement. 3hrs to make each. And one for a neighbor + thanku cards fro

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

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

How to Dispose of Non-Lego Bricks: Dog Edition

(I would like to preface this by apologizing if posting off-brand brick creations isn’t allowed. I am sorry if not. This is probably so wrong, but I’m afraid it would be bothersome to ask.) I rediscovered the old dungeon castle MB bricks while sorting through the childhood Lego tote. The MB’s had not been used in years, and so many miscellaneous things had migrated into that box. K'nex, random tools, rubbish, doodles of Toad, office supplies, and those utility building pieces from monopoly

still alive somehow!

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

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

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.

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

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

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
