Thanks for all the truthful replies in the last entry. I’d forgotten how much I love reading your guy’s input and views on things. Alas, this post has nothing to do with thoughts, and everything to do with crafts. Prepare yourself for a retarded amount of images.

So, I was at the store the other day (and by “at the store” I mean, at
michaels), and they were selling some beginner polymer clay kits —
comes with a 8 basic colors and a few basic tools for like, 10 bucks or
something.

The
first thing I ever made, burger and fries!

Some
of these have stuff attached already, and some don’t — i just haven’t
had the time to add stitch markers to all of them, yet.

My first cakes!

Fruits series!

Vegetable series! My favorite so far, actually

Sushi series! These wouldn’t stay still, so I had to take the picture with me holding them :T

And finally, a sakura… I have no idea what to do with this — maybe a hair pin?

My boyfriend saw the mythbusters amigurumi on here the other day and
instantly decided that he wanted to learn how to crochet. Anyways, I’m
originally a knitter — so i couldn’t help him at all! –Instead, we
decided to learn together.

Here’s my first completed project.. a sakura-shaped washcloth!

Not sure why I picked that color, because it didn’t really work out… But I totally want to try again!

I bought this fabric for $1.00 a yard on clearance at joanns. It might
not look like it but it’s denim, so it hangs really nicely.

Here
it is shown with a shirt underneath to show proportions — I couldnt
get anyone to take a pic for me — so you’ll have to imagine what it
looks like on a human.

Close-up. The jersy-ish fabric basically did the gathering for me.

The other day I was at Joanns and I saw this cute cherry fabric and I
couldn’t resist – even though it wasn’t on sale!! I looked down a
little bit more and saw the same fabric in white and green, and I knew
it was over. Before long, I had two yards of fabric that I “had to
have” but had nothing to do with.

Anyhow, this is what came from those two fabrics!

Buttons, boxpleats and contrasting yoke color

THe back is tied with a red ribbon

My pouch! Mostly the white-green, with green-white lining. Green ribbon for drawstring and red ribbon for handles =]

If this were a little pouffier I might even call it loli!

… I actually wore it to work the other day and was getting tons of compliments. Ah, my head got bigger that day for sure.

I’ve been crafting so much lately I barely have time for guild wars, anime or magic the gathering. Ah, sighs.
