My friend Halle sent me a switchblade comb in the mail. I can't even describe how excited I was when I saw it.
Immediately went into greaser mode. This picture got a lot of attention...positive attention. I was trying to be silly, but apparently this is a good look for me. The funniest part about the whole ordeal is how shocked people seemed to be by my appearance...
Unfortunately this miserable fabric frays! So when I went to close the plush it started to come apart. I had a little bit of a hissy fit because I didn't want to start over. I almost cut it in half with a pair of scissors from sheer frustration. After I cooled off I added a little patch. It looks sort of like it's supposed to be there and kind of adorable. I hope she doesn't mind!
I get really impatient sometimes, so instead of coming home and drawing and scanning the label and then printing it onto the green paper, I just drew it on directly since it's a one-off plush anyhow.
I went to Ruidoso today, but I didn't feel very well. I tried to put on a happy face regardless.
The main reason I went was to go to the trading post and buy some of these beads for crafting projects I have in my head.
I also picked up some postcards to mail out. These make New Mexico look fantastic. These just happen to be fantastic parts of a not-so-fantastic state! :)
I received this amazing package from the incredible Mel Stringer today. I told her the idea of making a zine intimidates me, so she sent me one of hers hoping it would inspire me. Mel's work ALWAYS inspires me, but hopefully with this added boost of confidence I'll be able to make one of my own.
Some of my favorite pages from her latest zine. I would highly recommend buying one for yourself!
Cinnamon dino-toast.
I love getting mail.
Especially mail with doodles and dinosaurs.
And the Steve Harrington dunny I ordered. So gorgeous.
