the future is the way of that
I finished my November fanart early in time for an event next weekend, but trust I will have another fanart ready by the end of the month as usual. This time I spent a few nights painstakingly trying to draw Transformers One movie Soundwave for my flower trading card series. I had a fairly accurate …
This is the long-awaited follow-up from previous posts about slow-fashion, mending, upcycling and thrift-flipping (link here!). I present to you, T-shirt upcycling featuring my large hoard of t-shirts I can’t really donate or sell due to bad condition or nostalgia. I basically have 35 t-shirts reserved that I almost never wear, either too small, stained, …
Here is another handmade lolita/otome top, made from Otome no Swing volume 19. I just wanted to sew something from the latest volume to be on trend, using this print remnant cotton I think I got at Michaels. It was at most 1.5 yards, a thin cotton with a repeating small pattern of Disney’s Bambi …
Continuing from my previous 2 posts, here are my purchases from small businesses and indie artists from July to September 2025! I was out of town twice, but I did attend a big con and also several art markets at the mall near my house, and made some online purchases from both familiar and new …
Happy Halloween! I’d been in a vampires and Castlevania mood, so I also put together a Japanese fashion gothic/aristocratic coord from stuff I already had, not making anything new, like I was Wisdom K or something lol. I was particularly inspired by Ayami Kojima’s artwork of Dracula for Castlevania Symphony of the Night, see the …
October’s monthly art is a tiny fanart of Dracula from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night in trading card form. Because he’s a vampire, and it’s for spooky season, just watched a youtube about Vlad the Impaler from Tasting History the other day. This was a quick multimedia piece I made with ink and alcohol marker …
I managed to finish a quick PC setup for Halloween/autumn, and this theme is now Liu Qingge and Scum Villain Self Saving System by MXTX. Well, it was supposed to be quick, but actually took me like two and a half days lol. I decorated slightly differently than before and also had arthritis so it …
In a previous post, I listed two sets of Japanese fashion items on Etsy/Ko-fi for anyone interested, just so my shop can truly be called an atelier. The beige/white lolita skirt and bonnet set was actually sewn quite a few years ago and meant for a variety of sizes, but I never pulled off that …
I actually made this recipe in August and got around to posting it now lol. This cookbook, “Good Enough” is by Leanne Brown, author of “Good and Cheap,” which I have made several recipes before because they were good and cheap. Unlike the previous book, this does not focus on cheapness, but includes personal essays …
This is a just a quick shop opening announcement for the holidays, I am releasing a bunch of cute new handmade items on my Etsy so it can actually be called an atelier lol. Be sure to get them before the last week of November. Currently only shipping to the USA. Most of these printed …
