Kawaii blogs!!

I saw a message about a kawaii linky party on twitter! Of course I had to look into it! Hawaii Kawaii is setting up a page for cutesy bloggers and shopkeepers to put up links to their sites!! I entered my blog!
If you like cute, you should totally take a look at this site. Also check out the links to the other cute blogs! It's always cool to find other bloggers that are totally obsessed with cuteness. ;)

Work In Progress And A Nifty Book

                        It's wednesday again!! Here is my Work-In-Progress pic of the day!

An Anime Style Blue Doll

She's going to be a doll....but I'm not entirely sure what kind yet. I've gotten her hair done, but you will have to wait to see that. ;} I haven't made a regular sized doll in quite some time! It's slow going right now, I just need to sit down and get to work!!

I just finished writing chapter four of my novel!! I'm about to begin chapter five (the middle section will be the most difficult I'm sure) :P

While I'm on the subject of books, here is a great one my cousin picked up for me at the library! This is a great book, if you feel your shop is lacking, or, are a new seller to Etsy, and need some tips and tricks.

It tells you how to get the most exposure on social networking sites, and has step by step instructions on starting, or revamping, your Etsy store!

I was inspired by this book, and made a new banner for my store! Maybe a custom twitter background is in order next..?

How to sell your crafts online: by Derrick Sutton

I should have more pics of the little blue doll soon! Talk to you later!

If At First You Don't Succeed......

Ok, I messed up........Remember the tiny doll from a few posts back? The little red haired girl? Well I made her a bit to big for my customers doll....Observe:

The picture is kinda funny though... X)

Needless to say, I had to make another one .....

Had a bit of trouble on the hair... I worked on it for about an hour!

It was my first time ever really working with thread, It was kind of fun.

I had just bought a pack of tiny black and white buttons, they were just about right for her eyes.

The customer loved the new one!

So I guess, all's well that ends well :)

The new doll was just the right size!....Phew....

Super Duper Teeny Tiny Itty Bitty Needle Felted Hamster!

 This was a super fun and easy project! (I love needle felting...<3) :D One of the little toy capsules that I mentioned became a running ball! X) It's fun to make things so tiny! This could be a hamster for a barbie, or a bjd! Or just a tiny sweet buddy.....He's in my ETSY.


 

The picture was a bit blurry, so It looked like he was running!

Another Tiny Doll

Here are the pics of the other mini doll, as promised!! This one is a little bigger than the last one..about 31/4" tall and 2" wide. I like her boa though X) She's in my Etsy store! :)

 I think the next doll I crochet will be made of MUCH thinner yarn. And maybe a smaller hook.....

My mom gave me a whole ton of capsules, like the kind you get out of a candy machine. I'm pretty excited! I see tiny toys brimming on the horizon!! :D
