CONTEST ENTRY!
Dec. 20th, 2005 01:29 pmbig big craftiness! [and contest entry :)]
my boyfriend and i decided to make a nice frosted christmas tree.
which came out like this. it was sort of hilarious how ugly it was, but it was tasty nontheless!
mm cookies! while i took the picture i was eating one, so please excuse my dear unsteady hand!
before
after
my dad asked me to make covers for our old chair cushions. i did them a bit sloppily--we've been looking for a new set for a while and these are just so that the chairs arent horrid ot look at ;)
yay now to the FUN stuff!
my father gave me a blazer (he liked but it was too small for him), i decided it was too boxy and boyish.
yucky big shoulders and too small of hips (whoa, it looks really disproportionate now that i look at it =|)
oh, beauty! no more tiny hips and saggy back-area
my new HUGE purse. i am still brainstorming up what to put on the front, i feel too plain leaving it straight black. maybe a star in one of the lining fabrics? (the lining is sloppy yes, but i was going for sloppy)
next, to my CONTEST ENTRY whee!
the box that holds my boyfriends' first gift (the other one was just splatters of black and white, a bit boring). i usually don't like robots but it just evolved into a little robot-ish thing. all hand-painted and improvised.
here are the two boxes wrapped and made into yet another robot-thing! he's nervous (i am nervous that my boyfriend will think it's stupid--it mustve reflected onto its face) and i think it makes him look adorable. 3 candy canes in his little pocket (maybe i will turn them upside down and make them look like pens?)
thanks for looking! have a wonderful next few weeks!
