    everybody loves stickers

    My Sticker shop is open! You can also find it in shop tab here at my blog. The only one I’m totally out of is the senatorial Leia. Low stock of Wedding Leia and T’Lyn (only 2 left of each of those) – everything else has decent stock. I’m planning to leave it up probably through January-ish? Then I’ll be…

    HSV Expo Wrap-up

    SORRY it’s taken me so long to get this posted! Work has been crazy and I had a lot of pics to upload between my phone, Chase’s phone and Chase’s real camera and I wanted to wait til I had them all. On Wednesday night last week we picked up Kevin. I had Thursday off and Chase was working a…

    sorry for party rockin

    We are back from LA! And exhausted! We hit the ground boots running and never stopped until we were on our own couch last night – where we passed out right after dinner. So let’s start with Tuesday, when I picked up Kevin and the last of his stuff to pack and brought him over to our house for the…

    i can go the distance

    What a weird week! Let’s start off with the new photoshoot pics first. New Padme lake dress pics! I restyled the wig for this. It was a pain in the butt. But worth it. I do need to fix a couple of things before I take this to dragoncon this year – first, I did make it a little too…

    hello world

    I do at least have some new photoshoot stuff to post today, but other than that, not a lot. Thursday was the funeral. Kevin looking dapper. Mama Gin and Papa It was a long day. We had to be there at 11:30 and we weren’t done with everything til about 3. And my stupid ass didn’t eat anything beforehand, no…

    the pit of despair

    Being back at work after being off for 2 weeks suuuuuucks. Also my mental health is currently being completely propped up by a trip we are planning this spring. Thank goodness for that. What have I done the past week? Not much. I did start taking Christmas down yesterday, so that’s something. We did some more photoshoots, which I’ll talk…

    it’s the 2025 costume wrap-up post

    At long last! I’m posting this way later than I normally do! But I was waiting on the last of my white backdrop pics of stuff from this year. Ok, so let’s start off with reviewing what I said I was going to make in 2025 in December 2024: 1. MoM Scarlet Witch – YES! Finally buckled down and used…

    im freeeeee

    For 2 weeks at least. For 2 weeks I don’t have to worry about work. I stabbed myself on the side of my thumb like right next to the nail with a pin saturday and it’s making it really hard to type on a normal keyboard, but I will persevere. Ok first up, more white backdrop pics! Here’s a couple…

    My pictures for today’s post are taking forever to upload. So I’ll start with the things I already have uploaded – more new photoshoot pics! MoM Scarlet Witch: Queen Amidala Disneybound: I took pics with the ears and without the ears so you could see the little “fan” of hair I did at the top to kinda replicate the hairstyle…

    Hey I actually have costume content to post today!! Finished my new MoM Wanda skirt: Version 1 spoonflower fabric to the left, version 2 knitorious fabric version to the right.

    post-dragoncon dump

    I may not be in the best mental place to be writing this but I need to do it before I forget everything. 24th Dragoncon is done and in the books. We left before dawn Tuesday morning. Before After Parents first time at Bucee’s! Check-in was smooth. The news of Taylor and Travis’ engagement broke just as we were pulling…

    I did not post last week… AGAIN! Well I didn’t have much to talk about so it’s not like anyone was missing anything. I’ve been having to go to the doctor every dang week, excluding the week to disney, and it’s really starting to fray my nerves. They’re trying to get my blood pressure under control before surgery later this…

    it’s rat time

    Remember how last week I said we were finally done with white backdrop shoots? Well I lied. Chase used a different camera for the last 2 shoots (Jedi Leia and Boushh) and when I got the shots back they just looked too different than every other white backdrop shoot; I looked back lit. Which was a bummer because i really…
