the future is the way of that
Unless something changes drastically with my current webhosting provider in like 8 months, I will not renew my website next March. They recently added a button to the control panel with a little robot head titled “code with AI”. Now I won’t blame the person who added this on this site manager, they probably assumed …
This month’s bullet journal monthly layout for June is actually mostly original artwork! I initially wanted to do mermaids, but since I just drew a mermaid for Mer-May and didn’t want to stock the watercolor paper into my journal and I also only had one mermaid sticker in my collection, I decided to go with …
May isn’t over yet, and I managed to squeeze in some time (instead of cleaning) to sketch, ink and paint this mermaid for Mer-May! I drew on watercolor paper with pencil and inked with my usual Zebra extra-fine brush pen, that I’ve used for years, got it at Daiso. I then used watercolors for the …
For “Me-Made May,” during which I work on completing things I made by myself, I finally finished a sewing project from almost five years ago, this ruffly underskirt from Otome no Sewing volume 16, which was published in 2021. I have no idea why I started it, as I don’t have any dresses or skirts …
Today I am posting about 2 new sewing projects I made from Misako Aoki’s sewing book volume 1 (reviewed here), a pair of hairbows and a beret! I actually made a ruffle heart purse from Daiso fabric already from this book but I can’t find the post, not sure what happened, maybe I only posted …
This may be a third recipe review from the same book, “Cooking for Wizards, Warriors and Dragons” because the first recipe was only partly done so I didn’t review, and the second one was just an Asian dish I could make any day. This one was different and interesting, but sadly I thought I didn’t …
Here is May’s bullet journal layout for the month! This month’s theme is Dungeon Meshi (Delicious in Dungeon)! I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. For the calendar itself, I continued with a simple square layout with no day names (just gotta use my old brain to remember). I bought a Dungeon Meshi cooking …
For all of the J-fashion fans, I want to follow up on an old post and Youtube video I made in February of 2021 about Larme magazine, a quarterly fashion artbook released in Japan featuring clothing trends, makeup and hair tutorials of the sweet and girly type, plus interviews from Japanese celebrities and models. Larme-kei …
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 …
