the future is the way of that
As promised, here is a deep-dive into my bishoujo Starscream cosplay but diner waitress version, with matching handmade accessories from Otome no Sewing volume 13. I decided to do this at the last moment before the Transformers cupsleeve (retro diner themed, like 1950s Americana drive-in with neon lights and hamburgers and milkshakes) event, so I …
I received my pre-order of the Bonnets and Sweet Tea – Lolitas of the South zine published in 2025 and I am excited to share my thoughts on this cute little zine and the apron sewing pattern and the recipe that came with this zine. I have collected a few zines (besides the Gothic and …
Here is the Spring PC setup with a theme of shoujo manga and especially Sailor Mars from Sailor Moon. I made it a little after March (the spring equinox) because I wasn’t sure I had enough decor, but I think I’m satisfied with this. One of my bullet journal layouts was Sailor Mars in the …
Here are my small business purchases from January, February and March 2026. I am a little behind (12 days) and I didn’t get every seller’s name this time around either. Silly me for thinking my early onset dementia will get better as the months of this waking nightmare continue! I did change backgrounds from the …
This recipe is from “The Arte of Cooking” which came with Tales of Zestiria the X dvd/blu ray set, and I won this in a raffle at Aselia con several years ago (not the blu-ray set, just the box and this booklet I guess). I discovered the booklet recently while looking through my zine collection, …
This month’s bullet journal is super cute! I chose a My Melody theme since her pink hood version is very spring-like to me and I can use even more matching sakura blossom stickers to match. I drew a slightly different monthly calendar this time, using squares instead of rectangles for each day, and I didn’t …
Just a quick report of the afternoon tea I treated myself to for my birthday (uhh 1 week afterwards because that was the only time I thought I could get off) on April 1st. I researched all of the afternoon/high tea places in the area and I finally decided on this location I have never …
I present today a project I’ve been working on the past month, a beautiful art noveau embroidered husswif sewing kit, with the original embroidery patterned by Sewstine (instagram here). I also used their sewing tutorial to make my husswif. Please check out Sewstine’s blog tutorial here if you want to make your own! I have …
I’ve been extra careful with making my recipe review posts previously , but I decided to make a compilation post of several recent recipes that were all right but I didn’t feel like making a separate post because they did not come from a cookbook I wanted to review or didn’t turn out that great. …
Referencing my previous post here about my atelier non progress, I finally have to concede that the world is in a bad enough place that they would not want to buy my art and creative crafts or merch right now. I’m not saying I’m the worst artist out there, nor do I want to imply …
