I ended up buying a set of Copic Multiliners and WOW. Instant love. Why didn’t I buy these when I was in college? Anyway, I kept using them exclusively for my lineart. Eventually, after viewing more and more art, I decided to go for it. For Christmas last year, I bought myself 2 sets of Copic markers.

And I keep buying more and more…! I’m mostly collecting the grays. I feel afraid of moving into color for some reason. But I do have the skintones set and a beautiful blue that I was lucky to win from Copic’s Facebook page :)

I don’t post my art really anywhere except my Tumblr and Deviantart page :)

Underneath these are where my bigger dolls will go :) Right now it’s just Ender (BJD Dollshe Hound) and a headless MDD lol

Since he’s level to me, I took some shots of Ender. Then I experimented with some Instagram-like Photoshop actions :3

Here’s the bottom of my bulletin board. It’s overloaded with stuff… I really need a new one ^^;

For the past 2 months, I’ve been knitting every day. I am not the greatest knitter, but I haven’t yet challenged myself to knit a hat or something… just scarves. Lots of scarves. I randomly ran into a great project called Scarves for Japan, which is taking donations for knitted or crocheted things. I really wanted to be a part of this, so I worked hard!


A requirement was to write letters for each scarf, then wrap it in plastic wrap. I was able to ship them out about 2 weeks ago.

The white one is the longest~ I think it’s 3 skiens combined :D

A big project for me was getting some shelving put up. After months of searching, I found these acrylic shelves on sale at the Container Store. To be honest I was pretty terrified of installing them.

I invested in a laser level and it was money well spent! I got them up AND they’re straight! It took me 2 days to get everything up. I just wish I’d purchased 3 more to display my Re-Ment, but then I wouldn’t have room for my BJD and soon-coming Dollfie Dreams ^^;

I wanted to start this post about something really cute…. Lucky Stars!

A few months ago, I got really addicted to making these. My sister and I made them when I was younger– actually she made them and I watched in envy! I never understood why mine never worked. A decade later I found out why… I was too used to making tight creases from origami! Lucky Stars aren’t meant to be folded like that ^^; Then… I was making over 100+ stars a day lol Something really great came of it too– I used to get very slightly bothersome hand cramps after hand sewing (like tiny snaps and buttons!), but making lucky stars have really helped my hand dexterity!

The story goes that if you make 1000 lucky stars, then your wish will come true ^^ I actually did make a wish *a secret!* and it did come true ^^ I need to make more so I can sneak another wish xD


Here is my stash of lucky star paper. I buy through JanetStore. She has a ton of nicely priced patterned paper and Janet is also super friendly ^^ I usually get my orders from her in about 2 weeks. Anyway, I have a scrapbox size box of nothing but paper… I may have ordered too much last time! lol But I can’t help it… the paper is too cute!

Here is my current storage for the stars. These are old Lychee Jelly Candy plastic containers… think they are~35 ounces each. Hopefully I can find prettier storage for them in the future~

Here is my Candy Store Blythe! I finally thought of a name for her… it’s been over a year! lol I decided that since she is so bright and happy candy theme to name her after the Japanese candy, Konpeito but ‘Peito for short. I changed her back to her stock outfit (minus the pink flower clips) yesterday. She’s so cute! I just wish her hair wasn’t so frizzy :(

Today was a great mail day! My Strapya order came in… a Marimo keychain and a One Piece themed case for my new cell phone, an iPhone 3GS ^^ I haven’t gotten to watch/read a lot of the series, but I thought this case was really cool xD They have cases based off of most the male cast. This one is for Luffy ^^

“Even  it’s  the worst day, Marimo heals your heart”

Along with my Strapya order came a Marimo ^^ Isn’t it cute! It’s a spherical moss that lives in water. I got the birthstones for my month, October. It’s very tiny! The bottle seems to be about 1 inch tall, not including the strap.

Today my kiddo and I went to McDonalds for lunch. She got this in her Happy Meal… it’s a Shrek watch. It’s kind of scary, actually @_@ When you close his mouth, his eyes look up. Actually, this is a very evil looking toy @_@;;;

Dog sitting ^^ Well, lazy dog laying down, I suppose. Been watching my sister’s dog for a few weeks ^^ The puppy has a lot of personality– always smiling and making silly faces. She loves to lay on the bed ^^;

And now… I have a pile of fabric I need to start cutting for some dolly outfits ^^ Hopefully I won’t get distracted by video games @_@
