Table art...

The drawing to go inside the table I am restoring is done. I don't know if you remember, but I bought this second hand table that I wanted to restore. Anyway, I need to give it one more coat of white but the weather is not allowing me. I think I just have to do it inside. Don't want to though as the paint is really smelly, however the summer seem to have given up finally and now I'm looking at several months of rain. Seems I don't have any other choice. I will show you some photos of it when it is done anyway. It will definitely be a one of a kind item anyway. Can't wait to finish it off.

New Package...

Morning Everyone! Over the past few days I've been working on the new packaging for Tomodachi Island. I've been wanting to do this for a while but haven't had the time. I ran out of packaging a while ago and didn't want to order more as the old packaging quite simply is old and Tomodachi Island has changed so much since then. So I have sent orders out in clear bags which I hate. I have felt really bad about this and I just had to take the time to make new packaging. So next week at some point it will be here. This is what it looks like and I would love to know what you think.
Full view if you want to read the text.

Also I am so sorry that I have been more or less absent for a good while now. I am working allot and when I'm not in work I work here to get orders done. I don't have much free time to make new things in, which sucks. I do hope that this will change in not too long though as I have some plans. More about that when I know whats happening hehe.

Oh, and Christmas. Yeah, it's close now and that will mean even more work for me. I love Christmas as it opens up so many doors for me and Tomodachi Island. This year will be my second Christmas with Tomodachi Island and I am better prepared this year. However this means that new creatures will be short on the ground. But if I hit my target this year, then next year will be filled of new creatures, items and surprises. So fingers crossed that Christmas will help me to hit my target.

I also want to ask everyone to make sure that you order in time as Christmas is crazy for everyone. Especially customs and post offices so there will be major delays. <3

The Bus Girl - Time Lapse

Spent last night drawing as it's been such a long time again. I drew this girl on the bus on my way to London a few weeks back. I think I decided then already that she was to be colored in. I am very happy with her and I loved using some odd colors in her skin tone.
Here is a time lapse if you feel like taking 5 min out of your day to see how she was drawn.

Back to the grind...

My two week Holiday has come to an end. Today I go back to work and it actually feels quite good. I've had two great weeks of which one I spent in Sweden. It was great to go back to see my friends and my Family and I miss them so much. It feels good to get back home as well though. Home is home after all, it's where you got all your things, your routines and well, where you can be yourself fully. I am not great with being away from my home for too long. I think the main thing is that I can't be creative when I'm not at home and that makes me feel uneasy.

Anyway, it's back to the grind and I am swamped with orders! Not that I'm complaining or anything but when you take a week off you have to pay for it when you get back lol! The last of the orders are going out today anyway but I am very tired yet satisfied to have worked hard. It is my life to sew now and when I don't get to do it for a week I get a bit twitchy.

During my holiday I've also become a Second Hand shop addict! I never thought I'd become one, but I guess I was wrong. Me and my better half found this beautiful table for only £20 when we walked past a second hand shop the other day and I just had to have it. I have great plans for it and will let you guys come with as I give this beauty a complete makeover! I can't wait to get started! Getting some paint tomorrow and then you will witness magic (if all goes as I've planned).

Bye Bye Little Friend...

Yesterday My little Tunip Thief left me. I am over the moon that someone out there actually bought a real art piece of me and something that I haven't under priced for once. I started to doubt that it would ever sell, but when I got an email that morning I just jumped out of bed. This means so much to me as an artist and this is what makes my self-confidence a little better every day. So thank you whoever you are. I will miss my Turnip Thief but thanks to you I now have more inspiration than ever! Thank you!

More BUGGLES!

 So the Buggles are finally here! It has taken me much to long to finish them off but now they're done and ready to go to their new homes! Like always there is only a limited amount of them, three Blue, Three Pink, One Yellow and one Turquoise. When they're gone, they are gone so hurry up and grab one! You know you want it! >.<

Available from the Plush and Charms section of the Etsy store!

Galaxy, Buggles and Pigeons...

So, I managed to get hold of a Samsung Galaxy dummy phone! I have been planning to do cases for Samsung Galaxy for a while now but I don't like to offer products for devices I can't test the products on  before sending them out. My boyfriend told me in the middle of me ranting that I could get dummy phones (display models, none working)! I had no idea! But now I have my first one anyway and so I can offer all of you lot with Galaxy S3's and S4's sleeves too! How great is that?! Well I sure am happy to be able to serve more people around the globe!

I am trying to finish this lot off as well. All the Buggles I started ages ago. The Buggles in the shop are now sold out so I thought it'd be about time I put up some more. So in a few days they will be available for you guys. I will let you know and make a nice little post with all of them together.

Also, in this hot weather birds are really struggling out there to find water! Loads of birds are dying, but you can help out. It is as simple as this. Just put a Tupperware box or a bucket of water (not to deep, we don't want them drowning whilst trying to help) out for the birds to drink out of and to take a bath in. We're enjoying company every day from these two, and yesterday there was 5! of them. All in the box at once! It goes to show how desperate they are for water. So help our fellow bird friends out! It's so simple! ^.^
