Reinvent the sky

I'm pretty massively behind on posting craft night photos. And I've neglected to get pictures of some of them - like the palimpsest raven - so I'm sorry. I haven't been as productive lately. I have several lying around, actually, that I should get pictures of. But oh well, later. I wish I'd taken a picture of the card I made my girlfriend before I sealed it in its envelope - maybe she'll let me take pictures of her opening her birthday gift, assuming, of course, that she's ever not busy for long enough to receive said gift.
( because so many projects are omitted, let's call it a craftastrophe )

Future projects include: building a tower, a modified Operation board with a Disney theme (because Brea is working for Disney this summer and will need an anti-brainwashing device), and Justine's costume from The Dresden Files. Also possibly a palimpsest hedgehog.

So Linn said to me something along the lines of "This cupcake is awesome! I would totally wear it on my head." And I went "What the fuck? You're weird."

And also went "hey, I can totally do that!"

So now there is a headcupcake of awesomeness. ( Alas, it's probably not delicious )

This one has way more off-topic stuff, but whatever. It's not real writing anyway.

( This time with a bonus Swedish lesson! )

So. Further craft projects! I'm not posting everything - only completed works. And I was going to put off posting one of these, since it's a gift. But I'm pretty sure the recipient isn't going to hunt down any of my blogs.

( Actually, all of these are gifts )

I am absolutely not tempted to buy the good brand of tea and send it to everyone I know. Other than how I sort of am. (Except Linn, who has informed me that Sweden actually gets finer tea than England, thank you very much.)

Tomorrow I have errands, in preparation for Crafting Thursday. If my ebay orders do not arrive, or I fail to find the last item I need while I run my errands, the Hideous Hat of Horror is postponed and I might actually finish projects! I have 3 projects that are nearing completion. Though I may redo some of my styrofoam carving, because I'm not sure coating it with paper mâché was the right call. I hear plaster of paris or mod podge is a strongly recommended method to render styrofoam easy to paint.

And the flower hairclip is damn near ready. I've already made one, as a gift. This one... I suppose I'll give to someone, but I've no idea who might like it. I just like making them, but my hair's too short to really wear clips. Anyway, it's an easy enough process to make them. All I have to do is break in my new soldering iron; theoretically, solder will hold better than the epoxy I tried last time I made one.
