C4 all over again
We couldn’t go to Celebration 4 because of the wedding – we just couldn’t afford it AND a wedding in the same year. Hearing people talking about it, and people constantly asking if we were going just made me so sad that year, because I really wanted to be there! I was so disappointed we couldn’t go. And now the…

Mermaid art
I stayed home from work today… a migraine’s got me pretty k-oed. I was pretty out of it last night, too. Today is Andrina… I drew a little last night, but mostly I’ve slept, especially today. I think I’m up, now… at 4pm LOL? The migraine is still hanging around in the background, but at the moment I feel ok.

Yellow fabric, and Mermaid art
I got a LOT done on my corset last night – I started cutting and putting the boning in, only to realise I’m not going to have enough. I used up so much of my last batch with Anne Boleyn that it went a lot faster than usual. I went to order more this morning only to find the place…

Watching Mulan, and mermaid art
Today’s princess isn’t Mulan.. but I did watch it last night for the first time in a long time. I bought the dvd on friday and we watched it last night. I forgot how much I liked that movie! Expect another Mulan piece sometime soon. đŸ™‚ I’m not crazy about the first two I’ve done, so I want to try…

Updates and mermaid art
2 apologies, the first for not unlocking yesterday’s picture on flickr. It’s unlocked now. Second, I’m late posting today! We’ve had an accreditation group at my office today so it was busy and crazy. But! Good news. My doctor’s office called and tried to reschedule my thursday appointment for earlier this week, which didn’t work out with the accreditation group…

More House updates
Since we got the wallpaper down last weekend, that meant it was finally time to paint. We finished yesterday. I don’t really have a before of either room – the garage door entrance is where the bug wallpaper used to be. The main entryway was the off-white/gold stripe that I never took a picture of (we got that removed the…

Van Helsing? and Mermaid art
My costume that gets more hits from searches isn’t something like Slave Leia or Wonder Woman… it’s Anna Valerious from Van Helsing, which I don’t understand. Does it have some huge fanbase out there? I get hits for people searching for “anna valerious costumes” or “van helsing costumes” EVERYday. Multiple hits! I don’t get it. Don’t get me wrong, I…

Happy Valentine’s Day! + Mermaid art
Chase is shooting the tennis tournament this morning… tonight we’re staying home instead of going out. We’re going to get the Attack of the Clones rifftrax, and have cheese fondue and just chill đŸ™‚ We already exchanged gifts, on friday… I got him a lamp and he got me a sweet new lapdesk and he sent me flowers at work…

Seize the Clay
Today was Cat’s birthday so we all went to Seize the Clay. It was a lot of fun. The highlight was Cat’s Stank-Eyed Cinderella. (After I took this pic she scraped one of the eyeballs off and redid them to be more even LOL)

Painting the entryway, and Jessica Rabbit art
We’re painting the entry way today. It’s “Teal Zeal” LOL. I’ll post pics when we’re done. today’s princess… was just in a movie WITH Disney characters. but i thought she’d be fun to draw.

Belle wedding dress artwork!
I had something to write about, but now I don’t remember what it was. Kevin stayed over last night because he’s got a hair appointment after mine today. I’m excited to see how his hair turns out. Today’s princess is Belle. I didn’t want to just do a white version of her ballgown as a wedding dress, so I did…

Dog Shampoo, and Silvermist art
I gave Indy a bath on Sunday, and I used a new dog shampoo – a “pretty smell” one, not one of her usual medicinal anti-itch baths like she usually gets, because for once she wasn’t itching, she just stunk. Well the smell of it mixed her smell and now she smells really weird and not all that good. today’s…

today’s art… Meg
I wanted to do another Meg pic, but she doesn’t really have anything else.. so I kinda took some ideas from the muses’ and goddesses’ outfits and cobbled together a wedding dress for her. I had wanted to keep things in themes, like this be “wedding dress week” or whatever, but I already posted some of the wedding dresses. oh…

Today’s art… Jasmine
There’s still snow on the ground, but it didn’t drop below freezing last night, so it’s back to work today. I just did this one last night – Jasmine’s wedding dress. I tried to add just a little more bling to it.

Jane and Batgirl updates
So I’m building a new corset, and it’s different than any one I’ve ever made. For one, I’ve never made a corset with an open front – I had no idea how to do that, and I had to read the instructions 20 times to understand it. But I successfully got the hoop side in – I’m so proud! I…

Another Snow Day! and Cinderella art
Weather was predicting rain & light flurries at most. But we got up this morning and had 6 inches of snow! I had to go in to work for about 3 hours, but then go to come home and Chase and I made a snowman. And today’s princess is Cinderella.

Finished the Bathroom!
OMG YAY! I’m really pleased with the colour, I was a little nervous about it. Especially since we picked it out and bought it back in September, I’d kinda forgotten what it looked like! And today’s Princess is Iridessa.

No more wallpaper
The handyman came today and got all of our wallpaper down. Seriously, we scrapped at that bug wallpaper in the entryway for 3 months… it took him 2 hours to get the entry way paper AND all of the master bath paper down. I’m so excited! He comes tomorrow to paint the bathroom for us. Here’s a before and after,…

today’s art, Belle’s christmas dress
I keep forgetting I don’t go to blogger to post, now LOL I’ve just about lost my padding with having extra pics to post! I’ve only got about 6 or 7 more before I run out and I’ll have to keep up with actually drawing every single day! Anyway, here’s today’s, Belle’s Christmas dress. This dress has been on my…

Lady Gaga costume
I love Lady Gaga. I have planned on doing one of her costumes for Dragoncon for a while, but couldn’t make up my mind which one – it was a tie between the “Mickey Mouse” costume from the Paparazzi video or the “Black Max” costume from the Bad Romance video. I was leaning towards Black Max because it was a…
