Crafting Crazy

So, I decided to dedicate this passed Sunday and Monday to crafting. 
Half because I wanted to add things to my etsy, and half because I NEEDED to craft. My room was taken over by various crafting supplies.



Here are the fruits of my labor





Plush Bunny X Carrot asymmetric dangle earrings






Plush Lion X T-bone asymmetric dangle earrings



Felt My Neighbor Totoro pin/brooch


Macrame bracelet with Amethyst healing beads

Another Plndr package...dont judge me

This order was made before the last one though! I don't have a problem! Just extra monties, codes, and good offers! But anyways, this is the shirt for the boyfriend and pair of shoes for myself. 
Isn't it cute lol
I got the shirt as a part of the bf's christmas gift of course. Yeah I'm more than likely done with him o.o. I just keep finding stuff that I know he'll like TT_TT lol. 
It's a skeleton fella on a bike white tank. He's quite the clean fellow, so I'm not worried of him messying it up lol.
Moving on to my new pair of shoes, HA. I got another pair of those comfy Cheap Monday shoes to match my others o.o....they were lonely lol.


Don't they look so cute together :3
I'm not quite sure I like the black laces on them sadly. I don't know why, but I thought they'd be white...BUT this just gives me a reason to buy some laces >:D muahahahaha. I actually wasn't thinking about switches the laces until now heh. I really like the bottom art. I'm almost afraid to wear them in fear that it'll be all janked up. If the event of that were to occur, at least I've still got the photos lol.
Also, I made chocolate chip cookie muffins on Friday. Yes choco chip COOKIE MUFFINS lol.

 I put marshmallows on two of them....they were so good! Especially when they were warm.

'Til next time!
Starfish Out!

Changing it up: Karmaloop.com

So karmaloop has been sending me mad coupon codes this past week, and I had a little extra cash from my ebay sales so I bought a little something something for myself...along with a little something for my brother's christmas gift. At first I was going back to get these really cute stocking that would have been paired quite adorable with my winter attire....but when I did get back to my cart...they were gone TT_TT so I kinda full-filled one of my little guilty pleasure wants. For the longest, I have wanted a pair of Huf socks. I was even talking to my boyfriend about them today while we were surfing PLNDR [Im on plndr everyday I swear -_- rehab]. They didn't have any of the socks available in the Huf shop on plndr, so I decided to look through karmaloop and low and behold they had them for $12. I snagged this pair
The maroon on top of the grey is quite aesthetically pleasing. There were two other pairs, but I preferred this. These will be a nice addition to my hipster boy wardrobe, HA. And please no judging btw :3. After using all my codes these $18 pair of socks [after s&h was added] came down to $7.88 shipping included.
The item I scored for my brodie's christmas gift was this lovely shirt

It's an All Day brand V-neck tee. Aww look he can match my socks HA.After some coupons and such this shirt came down from $17.95 s&h included to $12.06 shipping included. I hope he likes it!
 Let's see how the rest of this experience with karmaloop goes after receiving ^_^. 

Til Then
Starfish Out!

P.S. I think I may buy a pair of american flag socks to match the pair I got for the bf...getting all mooshy

R.A.P. Poem

I am in a club called Random Acts of Poetry, and through the two years-ish I've been apart of it I've been growing poetryally [yes that is now a word]. I first wrote a very personal poem after being inspired by one of the other members. It was very long and quite quite personal. This next one I wrote I felt is much better. Sweet and to the point. Shows some metaphorical growth and some internal rhyme possibly. I just know there's growth in it from poems I usually write lol. But yeah yeah, I'm going to share it...that's the just of all this nonsense paragraph...ok here goes:



Untitled
I'm a 20 year old busy brain
I'd say busy body, but my body stays put 
While my mind tries to contain
Everything
And when I say everything
I mean the ups, downs, and all arounds
The memories of those good days on those 
bad days wondering when it's going to be good again
Those what ifs, buts, and ands
that ish my mental just cant stand
Constantly wishing there was an off switch
an escape from this
A mind glitch
That would open up a secret door to a secret world
That my mind and I can explore together
Without worry of whatever, wherever, whoever
But then I remember nothings perfect
And that this mind scribble is just a side-effect 
of this disease called life.

Versatile Blogger Award

Hola chicas, and chicos. I was nominated by my dear Momo for the Versatile blogger award. Now to tell you 7 random facts about me, which is now a bit hard to do since I just finished reading Momo's and now they're in my mind lol. 

1. Spicy food is my absolute favorite flavor of food. If it's spicy on the menu then I most likely want it. My favorite "genres" of food would have to be, in this order: Creole, Indian, Oriental. All very tasty, and all know how to work their spicy lol.

2. I'm a gift giver. I love to buy gifts for people, and it be what they really want. That smile is what I work for when it comes to gift giving holiday time [Christmas/Birthdays]. I also enjoy being a gift receiver, but it always seems that I'm a bit better at reading people then they are me lol.

3. I've learned that I enjoy doodling over drawing. When doodling I just get out every idea that pops out in my mind, but with drawing I have to actually feel obligated to be precise and perfect. Doodling, the preciseness comes out in the comfortability.

4. I'm one crafty mofo. I'm almost always making something or altering something. Crafting is what I want to do with my future. Anything creative, bring it on!

5. I love learning about different cultures, and would love to travel everywhere. Languages, traditions, attire, everyday life, I love learning it all. The differences between my own culture and another are so interesting to me. Or just learning about different people tickle's my fancy. Differences from person to person are amazing.

6. I am a collections collector. I say that because I collect a lot of things lol. Sweaters, leggings, nail polish, rocks, crafting supplies, posters, drawings by friends, kawaii, manga, etc etc. I just can't put all my focus on one item. 

7. My mind is all over the place all the time. Have a conversation with me and you'll see. I will jump back and revisit other topics when I have the thought back in my mind, and get distracted by other topics in my mind [but that's hardly ever shown outside]. The only downside is that when someone asks me "what's on your mind" my mind clears...and I'm left answering "I don't know" lol because I really don't know anymore XD.
