Owl Swap!

I've got so many swaps to share! My most recent swap was an owl themed swap over on Craftster. Here are the goodies I made for my partner Cassey! Her favorite colors are teals and greens so I went with those dominant colors. I'm really happy with how everything turned out :)


I received my swap package in the mail this past weekend. Here are the wonderful items Cassey made for me. Firstly, a really nice 8-bit owl tissue cover. It's super cute :3


Next she sent me some owl trinkets. The black one is hand carved and painted!


Some deliciously cute owl art based on my wists! I love it! The color scheme is right up my alley. :D


Lastly, she sent me some Star Wars Extras!!


These incredible pendants are also hand carved and painted! Holey Moley Cassey! Your craftsmanship is incredible!! I can't wait to wear one of these with my Jedi Barbie Costume! XD Cassey also sells more Geek-chic charms and necklaces over on her Etsy! Check them out here!

May Birthday Swap

I participated in a May Birthday Swap over on Craftster. Now that May (and my birthday) are over I wanted to share all the goodies I received. Firstly, I received this wonderful package from RedMenace.


The country yarn is one of my FAVORITES to knit with, gummies are always a delicious treat, and the Panda Sleep Mask is strait off my wists!! I love it! It's even in my color of choice!


The details are so delightfully cute. :D I love that the eyes are closed. When I received this I immediately ran to the closest mirror to see how it looked on me. *facepalm* That obviously didn't work. But a photo works just as well.


Secondly, hautedogclothing sent me these wonderful tile coasters. I love them! They're so bright and cheerful! And they have owls on them! :3


Last but not least, Jaywesome sent me this dotted tree painting! Its got Autumn colors which is my favorite time of year! (Ironic because the leaves don't change in Florida) And she sent me Haribo's which are my favorite kind of gummies!

Thank you fellow Craftsters for making the May Birthday Swap one of my favorites to date.

Weekly Inspiration for this week! The lovely Miss M over at PhoenixFire Designs hand makes these amazing Tree of Life Pendants! I love looking at the different styles and beads used. They're amazing works of art and are smaller than the size of a quarter!


I invited Miss M to be my partner for a swap over on Craftster. It turns out we both are native to Tampa! Awesome right!? Our plan was to swap in person but due to unforeseen circumstances that didn't happen. Miss M needs surgery and is going through quite a rough patch. I hope everything turns out well for her and I am keeping her wellness in my thoughts. *sending good energies her way* I mailed out my swap package to her this morning so it will arrive tomorrow. I hope that will at least bring her some joy :)

If you would like to add your support or donate to her surgery costs you can read about it here.

So much to do!

I've been so busy lately! Work, Swaps, Convention Planning! It really knows how to eat up your time. PariahCon is less than 1 month away! I feel a bit overwhelmed because I have to get some Miss Pokemon Sashes made and I currently have no one to make them! D: Time to scout out the local sewing shops for someone who will take a commission on an embroidery machine. I hope that goes well.

In other craft-tastic news, last month I joined the On-Going Wish Swap over on Craftster. Here are the goodies I mailed out to Miss PixieVal. I claimed her for some grannie squares and a Wisty Surprise!



Aren't those slippers just the cutest!? I bought Sylvia's Pattern for Skimmers and they turned out so cute! Bravo Sylvia! I would never have come up with constructing these slippers on my own. And I'm currently in the process of making a pair for myself :D

Received! OTT HP Swap!

I received my package from Rose yesterday! Firstly, I received a letter from a local animal shelter saying that they found a wounded owl who was oddly carrying a package addressed to me. She said the owl is in good care and hopes that the box finds me. Also how surprised she was that an owl would be delivering a package. Hah! Muggles...

A mysterious trunk? I'm intrigued. . .

Oh Luna! What have you done now!? A letter from Xenophilius Lovegood stated that poor Luna had shrunk herself. He needed me to watch over her until he can find a way to reverse the spell.

My Partner put so much creativity into my swap package. Even though I had a hard time with the size restrictions for this swap I really enjoyed crafting for it. And! The gallery is looking amazing!

OTT HP Swap!

It's narrowing down the time for everyone to find out what their partners have concocted in the One Tiny Thing Harry Potter Swap over on Craftster. Since my partner received yesterday, I wanted to share my newest Amigurumi.


A tiny Hedgwig! :D She sits 2.5" high and is super photogenic! I'm really pleased with how well she turned out. I'm so glad my partner likes her. I will be receiving my swap package from her on Monday!

Swap Out!

These little guys will be on their way to Canada tomorrow! I'm swapping 1 full set of my amigurumi jellyfish for one of Dahlia's amazing Tardis Quilts! She put together an 'Invite your Partner RD 17' Swap over on Craftster. I'm so happy she agree'd to swap with me! I even sent her an added bonus! I spied through her Wists and noticed her love of Cardinals. I quickly, at the last minute, decided to crochet her one. :) I used this pattern on Ravelry and made a few additions. I think he's rather cute. :)

DWR5 Received!

I received a fabulous package from Angie yesterday! Everything was made with so much thoughtfulness and care. I am so happy to of had her as my partner! See the full Craftster Swap Gallery here!



I admire plushie making and Angie made me an AMAZING plush Tardis! She also sent me a banana since bananas are her thing :) Next, she knitted me these wonderful Tardis and Dalek beanies! I'm so happy it's still a bit chilly at night here in FL. Can't wait to rock these! Last but not least a T-shirt with one of my favorite Who Quotes "Would you care for some TEA!" I love the little Dalek with a tea cup! Genius! and so cute!

I'm hosting!

I'm hosting my first swap over on Craftster! :D Excited! Here's the link if you'd like to check it out. Possibly join.

Wonder what a Wists is?? Here's the website. It's basically a site that groups your favorite items that you see online. Its your online wish list! Hah! I bet thats how they decided on the name Wists! It helps your swap partners figure out what you like. Helps ensure a happy swap package. :)

Happy Swapping!

Doctor Who Craft Swap!

I have exactly 1 week left before I have to mail out my swap package. I badly want to post pictures of my completed projects, but I don't want to risk spoilers. So it'll have to wait. So far I have 2 completed projects, 2 more in process, and one more I'm debating about. I have some scrapped mess-ups so they'll be going through some stress tests. lol See the Craftster Doctor Who Swap 5 gallery so far. :)

Doctor Who!

I'm participating in the Doctor Who Round 5 swap over on Craftster! The swap just started so I have 5+ weeks of crafting time. Doctor who has been my latest obsession and there's been much Doctor activity over on craftster lately.

Anywho, I also participated in the Doctor Who Round 4 swap. Here's the lovely package I sent out.
The Adipose was crocheted, the Tardis keychain was a decorated glass tile pendant, and the 9th Doctor poster was digitally illustrated by me. I was super inspired by Ameba2k's AMAZING 11 and Amy posters. I absolutely loved the style chosen. It was perfect, I couldn't help myself...I'm really looking forward to round 5. I have so many ideas for crafts I'm going to make!

Heres some other amazing things from round 4! Check out the full gallery here!
