Cinnamon Toast

Yesterday was Hurricane Sandy and even though I was home (everything was closed in Massachusetts yesterday. mostly.) I gussied up like a psychedelic librarian anyway. And wore Cinnamon Toast perfume (which is amazing and smells exactly like it sounds!). It was a very good day, despite the weather. I made all sorts of new things for my shops and ended the day playing a rather violent game of Scrabble with my baby brother, Nolan, and my mum.

Hope you all are well and safe!

Pre- Hurricane Outfit

 

My outfit today! Experimented with some false eyelashes, that I like a whole bunch, but sort of creep me out as they are made of human hair... And they itch. But that's the price you have to pay, I s'pose. Also, the giant leaf? I made that. Well, I scanned it and had Staples print out a huge copy. Pretty neat, huh?

My Morning Music

It is no secret, I love rap. It gives me goosebumps, and I wish I could do it. Not that I don't scream along to Jay-Z and Tribe Called Quest in my car on the way to work most days.... But sometimes I imagine I could've been the next Kreayshawn if I had applied myself more :)

Here is what has been on repeat lately (And there is some spicy language sprinkled around in there, be warned)....

New Things

One of my latest projects! Mini things, inspired my camping, hiking, the water, nature and watercolor paintings. I just started the mini sculpture sets last night and I love how they turned out! I've been working with polymer clay for a while, and I just decided to branch out a bit and put them in my etsy shop. 

ETSY

America's Next.... Top...... Robot.

Hello! Sorry it's been so long..... I've been terrible at blogging the past two weeks. It's just that I have flown out of my creative slump and have gone absolutely mental! 

I have been taking mad pictures and editing them and making other things and filling my two etsy shops ( not to mention school, and work and daily Moonrise Kingdom viewings). The latest prints are the ones above. I have been dying to do a robot photo shoot with these happy little guys. And today I finally got around to it! In fact, at this moment in time they are not even on my etsy. I was so excited to share them that I got on blogspot straightaway!

They will be available by tonight though and probably in a set of four 3"x 3".

Instapile!

1. Buddy the cat begging for snacks.
2. learning how to cook a casserole! I won that round.
2. Learning how to cook- Baked ricotta with Blackberry Sauce. Also won.
3. Baby mushroom forest.
4. Bubbles and coloring time (coloring time is before dinnertime!)
5. Neon magenta nail polish I put up on Copious.com!
6. A drawing from coloring time.
7. My actual hair. It's cray. Totally cray.
8. Red oxfords I put on copious.com the other day! I soooo wish these fit, but I am passing them on.
9. How I do french tips on my nails. Classy! If that lobster sticker says I can do it, surely I can.
10. Butterfly from the butterfly garden adventure last week. I wish I had more pictures of this adventure, but sadly, it was so very hot in the garden that my camera steamed up and I couldn't get any pictures... :-/

Do you have Instgram? If you do, let's be Instafriends! I am so terribly addicted to it! I am GwenivereJoy and my wardrobe/copious sale IG is WardrobeDarling !

Sooooo......BAM! This is what I've been working on! I just picked up the prints and they are 100% exactly what I wanted. I'm going to do sooooooo many more this week. I've totally inspired myself.

These, among others, are available in my Etsy shop found

I am wearing so many clothes!! I love this outfit, it's very warm and comfy. And I completely (for the most part) ignore the fact that it makes me look an extra 20 lbs (which I probably am wearing this. All that material is a bit heavy.). The plaid mens shirt that I chopped up to make a strapless tunic was just a bit short to wear by itself with these tights, so I stuck the Merona dress underneath and Voila! Warm again. This might just become one of my favorite outfits of 2012!

Leaf Parade

I am so excited about these guys!!! These are some of the leaves I found on my hike the other day. I scanned them and yesterday ordered GIGANTIC prints of them (I thought they'd be in by now, but nothing yet. I'm getting WICKED antsy!). Aren't they beautiful though? I love that you can see each one's wonky details. I can't wait to see how the prints turn out. Depending on the level of awesome, I may put them up in my Etsy shop as prints, we shall see!

A Fall Hike

Today was so incredibly crazy beautiful! After I dropped the bug off at school I decided to go for a little hike. Crowley Woodlands was perfect! I hiked, collected some leaves and took a million pictures and then decided it was too nice to just go home, so I took the pup for an hour walk around the neighborhood and found even more leaves and inspiration! 

I've got some fall projects I'm really excited to share tomorrow. I've just started them, and I'll probably be up all night working them!
