Oh you little Deer

So, was the suspense enough for you?

Today I'll only have time for 'in-action' photos, as my card reader has walked away...yet again.

But, without further ado, I present to you


TA-DA! Little deer headband!


One evening, I was sketching a deer inspired outfit for one of my dolls, and I fell in love with the headband design.



I thought, Oh what the heck, I'll make myself one. I really like how it came out, and how it looks on me. Heh, what can I say, I like cute silly things. I've made two more, and I'm planning to have a few more after finals/my convention next weekend.


Also, pardon if you experience any hiccups. I got bored on Saturday and started fixing up the blog. I finally have an About Me page! When I'm not fretting over school work, I'll be fixing it up some more, and making it look pretty!

Are you doing any fixing up on your blogs?

Take Care, and Happy Crafting.

Little bits of happy

School is taking over everything, you guys!
But I'm doing good with small things to keep me happy, while I work on bigger projects.

For the longest time I wanted to cross-stitch, yet was intimidated by it. I mean, I can embroider fairly well, but cross-stitch seemed like a totally new territory. After hearing a bit of buzz from fellow crafters, I decided to dive in.

Yesterday I bought some 11 count Aida fabric, and scoured the internet for a simple pattern.



I came up with a simple heart using a pattern from about.com My grandma looked at it, and asked 'How long have you been doing this?' I replied "A few hours ago?"
I was linked to some videogame cross-stitch patterns, so I might try a few of those out! :3

Next on my small crafty agenda, a pink headband. Now I bet you're wondering, what's so special about a pink headband? Mine will have pompoms on it!



It'll be a shell stitch edged band, with pompoms on it. The idea came across thanks to my friends, and our obsessing over accessories on the internet.

Last bit of happy will be something that will expand my blogging again. The fun reason I started this blog in the first place. The Knitting and Crochet blog week!

I wasn't successful in completing it last year, but I will try my darn-est for this year. So during that time, expect a full week of posts from me :3
If you have a knitting/crochet blog, and you'd like to participate, here's the link with the information. Knitting and Crochet Blog Week

Well I have some knitting to catch up on, as well as a Wolverine phone cozy to un-pick...again -sigh-
