Tiny = Cute

I'm pretty sure that's a law of physics.

I just made this Lost Dharma logo ring, and it made me go all 'awwwww'.
Really awww over a logo?

Halloween in Wonderland

How friggin adorable is this?!

I should not be spending money unnecessarily since I'm still unemployed but I'm sorry, I could not resist this. It's a pre-order and I got mine at Stop and Scrap with a 15% discount. The discount makes up for the guilt.

I got both the 12x12 and 8x8 pads, along with an extra tag set. It's almost one of those sets that you hate to cut up and use because it's so cute!

I have this cool little fan on my bedside table, the blades are a cloth material so it doesn't require a "cage" around the blades because if you stick your hand near it the blades don't cut. Nifty.

Morticia also thinks it's nifty. I wish I had taken a video instead of a photograph but she loves to stick her face in the moving fan. Silly cat.


I love how cats fit perfect on anything they are sitting on, she's plopped herself on my clock to spy something on the wall to knock off.

Thanks to Angie ..

For her recommendation of using an open book to photograph my rings. I gave it a try and found it a little easier to get a clear picture, and also minus the annoyance of contorting my body on the bathroom floor to photograph the piece.

My Next Hurdle

Seems to be photgraphing rings. It's a bitch doesn't begin to cover it. I am considering buying one of those finger displays that are used at jewelry stores and art fairs. I do find the severed finger incredibly creepy though.

Also I do not have the most exquisite hands, while they are fairly well formed and small in proportion; they photograph as if I have a red rash over my entire hand. "Hi my mother was part lobster." I am able to correct this somewhat with a little use of the tan brush in Corel and softening of the picture, but I sure wish I could find a hand model.

Wanted: Severed beautifully manicured finger
No?

I normally photograph my things on the floor of the bathroom, perhaps I'll move them to higher ground on the sink .....or result to creepy severed finger display.

Where to take that picture?

I am forever wandering around trying to find the best place to take pictures, forever buying paper for backgrounds or looking for some surface around my house. It's exhausting people.

I have discovered of all places ... the bathroom.

The bathroom floor to be more exact, found some non-detracting paper and WALLAH* perfect pictures.

I also upgraded my old Canon Powershot to a new one, which is working just dandy and it's a lovely chocolate brown. I believe I'm just going to smack my old one up on Ebay to sale.


* for those not in on the WALLAH joke ... Normally one would say VOILA! but a forum I'm a member of people are constantly misspelling things and they seem to work their way into my everyday speech from mocking them so. Hence the story of WALLAH!

Survived the plague

I got sick last Sunday with some mutant flu/bronchitis/respiratory infection and was knocked off my feet for a week. I can't remember the last time I was so sick. Still have a horrible cough but I feel 100% better. I didn't move all week, so now I'm busily getting some Etsy orders out, updating shop and cleaning up house.

I also didn't put together the cats' new toy either, so they just lounged around on top of the box for a week. Got a chance yesterday, it was relatively simple and a big hit!

Gomez and Morticia check out this new contraption

Sidney enjoys the inside of the condo and the bouncy green thing!

Best part of the gift always seems to be the empty box
