Message Board

Gave my message board a makeover. Thought it was looking ugly. So heres the new!

Not really a step by step explanation but.... you can see the process below...

You need some fabric...

Either felt, foam, or some kind of cushion under the fabric

Some floral decoration. Optional.

Staple the felt + fabric together to the board.

Get ribbon and staple them and create a diamond pattern

Designs are up to you. I decided to do diamonds.

Finished. Used the florals to cover the staples and glued on some rhinestones on the ribbons.

Photo/Message board in use. Hung on some charms and buttons.

Thought this might inspire someone to make their own board. Doesn't take much, just make sure to be careful using a staple gun. <3

Nyan Cat Costume

Promised my baby cousin that I will sew up a nyan cat costume couple weeks ago. I finally got around to doing it today so heres the complete results!

J.E.T. as Nyan Cat

The whole thing was sewn by me <3 It looks kind of whatever but I figure she would only wear it for this year so it was quickly/sloppily put together with a sewer and some fabric adhesive. Well, happy hallows eve <3 have fun tomorrow!

Job Interview

Had a job interview at Western Digital last Saturday. It was short and honestly the supervisor there is pretty laid back. I got the job! Just waiting for the time and date for training and open available position. -_- I feel a little secure now about my financials since this job is going to be enough to take care of my mom and I for awhile. Wish me luck!

Moving!

Difficult times has not completely rolled over for me. My mom and I will be moving from a 2 bedroom apartment down to a studio. Yes. Where to put all our crap? Who knows. All I know is I'm going to have to scrap a lot of things, give up my fish tanks + fishies, and bed. So the pleasant aftermath? A clean slate, clean room, better organization. No more being a hoarder and buying useless knick knacks and definitely no more impulse buying. <3 I got plenty of projects! Probably going to toss out my computer table for a new compact computer desk with shelves definitely and possibly make a heart shape wall shelf <3 Spray paint some things pink and viola... pink goodness! TT4N!
