So, I've got a bunch of pics behind the cut here, but they're not big pics. Some are Valentine's Day stuff, some are just some random stuff I did. Anyways,

So, to start out with, this is a giant mushroom-looking cupcake I made for no apparent reason. It took 5 bags of stuffing!

This is a box I made for my boyfriend for Valentine's Day last year. It was a plain box from the Hallmark store that I covered with red fabric and black lace, then replaced the silver ribbon with red. The inside lid is just fabric paint- it's from one of my favourite Sentenced songs. Then I filled it with red crinkly paper and stuck his Jägermeister shot glasses in it, which we thoroughly enjoyed later lol.

And for the same V-day he made me a life-size coffin (he's a carpenter)!!! And contrary to popular belief, I have been known to sleep it in :)

This is a shirt I made him for his birthday. It's based on a George Carlin skit lol

And for our anniversary last year I made him a chainmail shirt. Modeled by the boyfriend in question, the sleeves are kinda short in this pic because I ran out of rings.

Moving on to V-Day this year, I made myself an awesome red dress to wear out to dinner. But silly me forgot to get pictures before I took it off, so Mabel is modeling it now. I had to have my mum come over beforehand to lace me up.

So this year he gave me a woodburner, which is something I've ALWAYS wanted. He also gave me a bunch of different woods that he cut up and routed. I've been taking great advantage of it... :) This is my first one, which says Carpe Diem (seize the day) which is like, my motto.

And then I did a bit more detailed one that says Aika Multaa Muistot (Finnish) which, in English means "everything is nothing." It's also a title of a Setntenced song.
