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.

My ask box is acting ridiculous, but essentially the few asks I’ve gotten have all been summed up to this one. So first, thank you! Second, more Adventure Time wallets [and wallets in general] will be coming after March 3rd! Why that date? I’m working a convention the first weekend of March and that’s the last day of the convention. Thus, I’ve got to hold stuff back for that.

For my new followers who don’t know [and old ones two, the rules have changed some!], I offer customs. You can get all the info on that here! =]

Baby Avengers! Baby X-Men! Do you guys even know how badly I want this to be an ongoing? I doesn’t even have to be a vs, it just needs to be baby Marvel characters being adorable. This is an all card pockets wallet because I honestly could not pick what should be the top pocket xD. I am so incredibly happy with this though.

It’s up for sale on my Etsy! Go check it out =]

The first of the two wallets is one I had some serious fun making, mostly because I got to re-read all of my Marceline and the Scream Queens comics before hacking them up for this. I honestly don’t watch much of the show because we don’t have cable, but I love love love the Adventure Time comics and spin offs, because they’re just funny and great. 

This is available for sale on my Etsy, so check it out there!

And now, I present you with, precious baby Anthony Goddamn Stark. I believe he speaks for himself. Loudly and with feeling. xD Which makes anything I might say in commentary irrelevant, he’s probably talking over me right now.

This was another custom order, and is not up for sale as a ready-made item.

Loki custom order! There was a preference for male Loki, so it’s all just our god as a guy here. Female Loki will be happening at some point as a ready-made, because I’ve got way too many panels not to, and she’s so beautifulllll. But yes, Loki. The villian, not villian, villian, take your pick I think it just depends on the week and how he’s feeling. I’m actually not super creepily familiar with him, like I am with other characters [every x-man EVER], because I’m not big in the Thor comics or Journey into Mystery. I do however, find him quite adorable as a petulant boy in JiM xD. 

These have been my thoughts on Loki xD. This was a custom order, not up for sale as a ready-made.

Customs are going to be closed a bit longer than expected.

Until the First of September. Now I feel the need for a bit more of an explanation. The simplest answer is stress. I’ve still got a pretty long list to knock out, and I want to get those done and actually be able to have a break. Because there is life stuff coming round that I have to deal with. In May, my college screwed me over. Basically, the semester before, while I took enough credits to be a full time student, since I was repeating a class [Because a D is not fucking acceptable for me] my financial did not count those credits, which meant I didn’t meet standards. Which meant they revoked my TAP for Spring [that’s the NYS general student aid] which, okay, whatever. It was $250 dollars or whatever. What I didn’t know is that TAP is linked to your eligibility for NYS Grant that I get. And they didn’t decide to revoke that until AFTER they refunded me the money for it. [And, for some reason, they also refunded me my tap, which I didn’t know because they throw all my refunds together— loans, grant, tap into two checks]. So they gave me $1000 they shouldn’t have. And didn’t tell me this until three weeks after they did so.

Some of that money was left, but between groceries and gas and my life, it was only about $650. So, I can’t sign up for fall classes until that is all paid off. I’m really close now, giving them a hundred dollars a week, and I only have $160 left as of today [which, okay sidenote: THANK YOU GUYS FOR BUYING MY STUFF. Seriously. If it weren’t for my sales, I wouldn’t be able to do that and still get by without being ridiculously broke this entire summer. So, I know I never really talked about this situation, because I didn’t really wanna, but you guys have helped me so fucking much you don’t even know <3]. Now though I have to figure out how my next semester is going to play out. I’ll be taking out more loans and shit, but I at this point, I need to find a job. 

I hate looking for a job. Mostly, because every time I’ve done so in the past two years, it’s reduced me to a sobbing mess. On an almost daily basis. I start crying just thinking about it, like there are tears in my eyes right now. And I wish I was being a drama queen here. Because no matter how sincerely I try, how many applications I submit, calls I make, awesome references I have, I almost never even get to the interview stage. And my mom, whom I love very much, DOES NOT GET IT. Instead, she gets annoyed with me for being upset, because apparently I’m not allowed to have a bad day ever or something, and that just makes me feel worse. For awhile, she’s left me alone, but she’s started bothering me about looking again, so I have to start looking again. And go through the entire process I just described for the next few weeks and hope that something goes right in that department.

And, there are other life things that have just been making me miserable, but I’m guessing this post is probably already way more than you guys ever needed to hear about me and all of this. That’s my reasoning behind the extended closed customs, so I can at least try to get myself together some. Now, I’m gonna go post the finished pictures of the customs I have gotten through on my list and hopefully calm down some.

Andddddd have some Billy and Teddy. A custom order, I’ve actually had this one done for a little while, but I’ve held off on posting it for a bit just ‘cause. Reasons. But here it is! And man, I don’t even know what to say, I’ve made so many Billy/Teddy wallets I think I’ve run out of commentary for them? xD I love them, but we all know that, so uh, yep. xD

Like I said, it’s a custom order, not up for sale as a ready-made.

So customs are closing for a little while

I’m like, way behind, to the point where my life is getting to be all wallets and I would really love to not have to think about wallets every moment of making things. So, the orders I currently have on my waiting list are of course going to be finished, but I’m not going to be taking on anymore orders until August 13th. 

In that time besides finishing what I have that people are waiting on, I’ve got a couple of prototype designs I’ve been sitting on for awhile [clutch wallet and a bag whoo!], some college stuff to take care of, filling up my shop more with some ready-made things, and just other random projects to work on. And when they open up again, I’ll have a completely blank list, so the wait time will go down a little! Yay! 

Well, I interrupted some sewing to post this, so I’ll be getting back to that now xD

Some Doctor Who goodness for the holidays =]. This is a gift for my lovely friend Olivia, who has insisted I post this up for her before I ship it off to her later today. I hope you love it Liv =]. I love Doctor Who and had much fun with making this one X]

Reblogging this because Olivia has just leveled the accusation that I never showed this one off on here. THIS IS TO PROVE HER WRONG.

A custom I did! I just finished it the other day, which is pretty good timing I would say, since the new Hit-Girl limited came out Wednesday [SOOOOO GOOD GUYS. GO. READ. ABSORB.] And can I just say how completely hard it is to get awesome shot of her not completely covered in blood or bruises in some shape or form? It wasn’t a specific requirement of the wallet, it’s just what I ended up going for? I dunno xD. I did have fun with this though!

This was a custom, like I said. If you want a comic wallet, shoot me a message! I love customs!
