ABOUT ME


Tags: Crafts / Wallets / Life / Sewing / Tutorials / Q & A

My mother claims that had she known all forms of Alex would be so popular in my generation she would've never picked it. Yet here we are. Alexandria. Xandria if you like. Never ever Alex.

So close we might as well call it an even twenty. I work in a craft store and teach kids how to sew. 95% self taught. More often than not look like I stumbled into a box of crayons.

I spend a lot of time designing, creating, and reading comics. I am forever outgeeking myself.

I'm a Craftster Best of 2012 Winner!

I work my day job at a place advertised in Marvel comics. I am ridiculously happy about that. Even if I’m getting next to no hours right now. Damn summer dryspell.

totally irrelevant post to come out of my time of deadness with, but i just saw a guy who i went to middle school with and he has gone from ‘oh he’s adorable’ to ‘holy shit attractive’. i don’t even know what my life is anymore.

My mother put on a pair of my pants

And promptly told me I could not wear them. She insists they are too short. I’m twenty and she just told me I’m stupid and don’t know how to wear clothes. I can do nothing but laugh because my mother is a two year old WHO JUST THREW CARDBOARD AT MY HEAD FOR ME WRITING THIS.

Tis crafting night at Fish’s place =D she knits, I cut out patterns and play with comics. Jenn is here watching Archer and making me teach her how to use her new sewing machine.

dyrtallday whispered: When you made your platform shoes did you use e6000?

Nope, I used Shoe Goo. They sell it at like sports authority and I think WalMart. I also think they have it at the shoe store down the plaza for my job. We don’t sell it at JoAnns, which is sad. Also, it took me two tubes of it.

That would be awesome hun! Shoot me a message in ask and we can talk about it! Also, I miss your face! You have to come to one of Maya and my Criminal Minds nights. Serial killers are interesting xD

After like, three years of saying I need them, I finally got business cards made a couple weeks ago! And my bestie Laura, in her efforts to make me ‘legit’ [whatever that’s s’posed to mean, got me a little case for carrying some with me always. The image on the card was a bitch, but I’m really happy altogether.

And that is all I have to say for now xD

Last one for today, and it’s Twilight Sparkle!

She’s my biffle’s favorite pony, which is why I did a wallet for her first! The next will prolly be Rainbow Dash. If I had my way it would be Big Mac, but he’s been in the comics a total of like, three panels. Hopefully when Applejack gets her solo, he’ll appear more. Until then, at least Twilight and Spike are making me smile =D

It’s for sale up on my Etsy! 

Cake is my favorite character of the lot! She’s sassy and says things like ‘Oh sweet baby glob’ that makes me giggle. 

This is my second ever Fiona and Cake wallet, the first I made for Genericon. These wallets won’t be possible after awhile, considering, the comics are only going to have a six issue run. Which kinda makes me super sad because I just want it to be ongoing. The story so far has made me happy, I haven’t gotten the newest issue yet sadly. But, there is always Friday to go grab it!

Of all of the character friendships on the first gen of Avatar, I really do like Sokka and Toph’s the best, and I carried over when the run of the Promise came out. A friend suggested this be the first Avatar wallet I do [well, she said Sokka, I heard Sokka and Toph] and I’m happy I did it. I haven’t started reading the search yet, but I’m ready for more Zuko love =D
