[100529] Mr. Sunny Pants

Since I have finished up my hamburger restaurant project, I just went back to the project I was working on. Yes, collaborating with my little artist, Bella!
Here is the latest crocheted doll of one of her characters:) Mr. Sunny Pants!!


He is so sunny. Hahaha, I mean, he is so CUTE!
His smile makes me smile, and Sean loves this one as well. Mr. Sunny Pants doesn't have arms, but has three pieces of hair. That's what Bella told me:D


It is a lovely day today, and is as sunny as he is, indeed;)

[100528] My Etsy Store Stickers

I have been trying to set up my Etsy store front these days. In one of their email letters, I read that it's good to have some stuff to make my products nicer when I make a sale, like a letter head or a thank you card, stickers, business cards, etc. Something that looks professional. Haha! I mean, I haven't made any sales yet, and have no idea how long it will take for me to make my very first one, but I just don't want to let it fade out. I really want to keep doing it. It will be a bit frustrating for sure, until everything settles down, but I have the people around me, who encourage me. I cannot thank them enough for that.

So, here is a picture of the stickers I got; Even though I say they are stickers, they aren't. I didn't have anything and was broke enough to refuse buying some equipment, so I just printed out on a regular paper, and I am going to stick it by myself.


I have also been working on a project for a hamburger restaurant lately, and it's almost done. I don't make any money out of it, but it is absolutely pleasurable to work on it, because I can see the restaurant's owner's happy face:) That is to me, the ultimate beauty of doing art; I just love seeing people like my stuff and smile on me.

[100520] The Useless Factory

This week, I only focused on this project, and I am so glad that I finally finished it today!
These Useless are with 100% cotton yarns, half and half cotton/bamboo yarns, and 100% organic cotton batting. Useless just makes me laugh, as he ever does:)



Looking at them, especially in a cardboard box, is such a day-maker. I made 8 in total, 2 are already sent out, and the other two out of these 6 will be sent out next week. What should I do with the rest?? Hahaha

[100503] Mr. Funny Pants!

I worked on this little cute character that Bella drew the other day during the weekend. It was su much fun and I really like how it came out. Well, except the fact I ran out of my black acrylic yarn... so basically he ended up having short hair. Hahaha! Look how funny he looks!!





Went to Michael's last Saturday, and got some white cotton yarns and batting for a bigger Dragomander, as Bella and Keith said she wants a Dragomander:) I shall now work on it!
