I've started on the first of my fashion

refurbishing! It's still very much a work in

progress, but I'm happy with how it's

turning out so far. Fun fact: they actually

make this thing called "fabric medium"

which you can mix into acrylic paint to

make it work as fabric paint. It's really

handy if you want to paint designs on your

clothes without buying fabric specific

paint. I used that on the the right hand

pocket, and am adding sugar free Redbull

tabs to the left. Sewing on the tabs is a lot

of work. According to my calculations, it will take

68 of them to cover the pocket. Currently, I have

18 sewn on and 23 sitting in a jar. If you drink a

lot of sugar free Redbull and feel like sending

them to me, let me know lol. It does slightly annoy

me that the blue of the paint and the tabs don't

match, but I think I'll get over it. I also have plans

for designs on the front pockets, but that's a future

endeavor.













I plan to make a business out of selling stuff

like this, though I'm not 100% sure how big of a

market there is for it. At worst, it's me engaging

in a hobby I enjoy, so I can't be too mad about it.



Well, that's all I have this week. I'll be sure to

show y'all the finished product when the time

comes. Bye for now!

We're back, baby! I have a few things I'd like to share with y'all that I wasn't able to during my trip. First, here's a drawing I finished while at my sister's house.

It's essentially my interpretation of an angel. I was

considering doing this as my halloween costume but

I don't really think I have the materials or time...

or any real reason to dress up on halloween,

honestly. I kinda gave up on the dress because I did

NOT want to draw all the ruffles I had originally

planned, but I'm happy with it overall.

We also went to a concert while I was there. Well,

I did anyway. I did get my sister a ticket, but she

didn't like the type of music that was being played

so she was at a Panera 2 miles away. Appleseed, one of

the bands that was playing, is actually from

Las Vegas, funnily enough. Here's some photos from

that.

We also went to a farmers' market, where I got

these sick ass earrings. They're made with real snake

vertebrae, ethically sourced, of course. You can find

them and other cool stuff at

In more recent news, I went to the Goodwill bins

today and got a bunch of stuff that I plan to

upcycle. My goal is to eventually start a

business selling upcycled garments as well as my

own original designs.

That's about all I have this week, I'll be sure to

show y'all what I make with my Goodwill finds.

Bye for now!
