Huzzah! I'll look forward to it!

I'm so excited, I can't wait till Brendita gets this package. I'm going to take some photos of what I made, just to hang on to, but also so this thread can have some hot Craft Porn once people start getting things. :D

Ok, it looks like I am going to have to stop after I finish Gummi's, Lola Rose's, and Lysondra's. I just don't have the time or money, since I still have several projects to finish for girls at work. (Fabric is expensive!)

Brendita's package is in the mail! I shipped it 2 day priority, it should be there soon. :D

Brendita, you should totally let people buy custom stuff from you or whatever for what it's worth, make some cash. $$$


Lysondra, I'll PM you if you want so we can get rolling too!

Lysondra, just a warning... I've never sent a package internationally so I felt the need to use a ridiculous amount of packing tape!

Lysondra
03-26-2008, 09:28 AM

Oh, Lola Rose- I managed to tape one of my dog's hairs to your package! I was mortified and tried to peel back the tape and get it off but to no avail... now I'm embarassed but consider it a gift from Sophie and me!

Lysondra

Lysondra
03-30-2008, 09:42 PM

Oh yay! You got it.

Hope it wasn't too silly for you.
I had all these bits of my old computers that I was just dying to do something crafty with and figured that you were geeky enough to "get it".

The "card" was my old network card. It seemed appropriate.

<3

By the way, potential traders, I don't always make things out of computer bits so don't be scared.

I made things out of computer parts when I was in highschool, it was the final exam in my jewelry class.

Thank you, Mia M!!! Aparently, I got my prezzie a few days ago, but I didn't know till late last night, Rob didn't tell me. :cutie:

I love it, it's so beautiful!!! I'n super excited to wear it :heartbeat it's going to look so pretty!

Well I sent yours, Lysondra's, and Lola Rose's packages today, so they should get there this week! I hope everything fits all right.
I need to find my stupid camera so I can take some pics!

Lysondra

YAY! I sent two packages, but I forgot who to. D:

Lysondra

I feel bad. After making my gifts I started making MUCH cooler cards and now my people got my 'meh' cards. :/

I make floral haircombs (facinators, I guess) and birdcage veils... I also like to bake cupcakes in fun flavors like pena colada and apple cinnamon spice.
the pink flower haircomb is soo beautiful!! I am not crafty tho :'(

Lysondra
04-01-2008, 09:07 PM
OH MY GOD MIA! When you said you made the HOTTEST fucking hairdohickeys, I didn't think they were THIS gorgeous. You should open an etsy shop, this is worth $25 minimum. I know some places that'd sell this one for $40. I'll take a pic when I have makeup and hair done so you peeps can get the full effect.

Lola Rose
04-02-2008, 04:59 AM
Ya, I need to do a full out makeup pic with it too, it's too pretty for lackluster everyday looks!

But just for Mia, I 'll take a boobie pic of it :D

DAMMIT! I can't figure out how to resize it to post.... I miss my mac so bad, it was so much simpler. :(

does anyone know how to do it on a pc?

or somewhere that I can host a nudiepic?

I'd ♥ too! My Handmade items can be found in my siggy...it takes you directly to my online shop!

Lysondra
04-02-2008, 07:54 AM
I was JUST looking at your etsy. I'd post mine but it links to my stage name and I don't want any connection on here of the two. :/

I'd love to trade with you!!!!

Mia M

Lysondra, Lola- I'm so glad you like them! I made about 4 of them a couple of months ago and I just lost my gumption to start an Etsy or ebay store so there they sat... I'm glad someone will enjoy them now! When I noticed Lysondra wanted to exchange with me I knew exactly which one to send... It really reminded me of you, especially it's sassy color.

Lola, to resize, I use you can resize and download your image, then attach it to your reply here on SW...

Lola Rose

I'd really like to do this, but I'm not sure what I'd be good at.
I can handpaint picture frames...especially if you have a friend that just had a baby. Or if there's a special occasion you're celebrating.
Also I can paint letters nicely...like those train letters that spell out children's names or the letters that you can hang over a door with a name on it.
I also can make magnets that say, going to the library, at class, sleeping, homework...etc. those are really good communication boards for dorm rooms.
I'm mean with a puffy paint too.
Used to paint glass ornaments, and if you don't mind if they're messy I could handle it.
I can only really handle one or two at a time.
OH OH OH I can make pets rocks too....those are priceless :)

I'm a mad knitter. I can make you anything, but sweaters and stuff are time-consuming (plus use a lot of yarn, which can get expensive) so if you want a big project, we'd have to arrange a trade of equal value.

I can also make cute little projects like earwarmer/headbands, felted flower decorations, socks, scarves (bulky and warm OR silky and accessorizable), cell-phone carriers, purses.

Also, depending on the project, it might take me a while. Like, if you want a sweater for Christmas, tell me now.

Ughugh. I deleted my PMs people. I sent cards to Murdock and someone else (forgot who, brilliant) and I need the addy's of my other traders again. D:

Pretty_Penny

i paint. i do large and small scale acrylic paintings, but i'd lose a lot on the larger ones, so for the sake of this thread.. we'll say small scale. :D
