If only Mr.Guy Fawkes had succeeded in blowing
Parliment up, I would have shaken his hand personally
Moving swiftly on from my political views ^^"
Today I was on pig duty as mum has work early some thursdays
so its up to me to sit with all the pets by myself :)
Then I went upstairs and started crafting away
I started with Mia's piece which is from the anime/manga Fruits Basket
The character I have chose to focus on is Tohru Honda
Mia cosplayed as Tohru Honda this year at Manchester convention
So I thought there would be a nice connection there
This is the background, which was all torn out from a
Fruits Basket Manga book I brought from a charity shop for £1.25
Then I spent like hours doing these babies
They are kinda like chibi's I suppose of the main characters
in Fruits Basket starting with Kyou the cat Tohru the riceball and Yuki the mous
took me ages to get the shape right and mixing clay colours =.=
but I think they look good in the end
they need their faces finishing off with paint~
This is the start of Tara's present
as she has the Pokemon theme i cut out some vintage 1996 pokemon
fabric and glued it to some card
this will serve as the background
its so smooth and flat =3=
So Im all set for when my beads arrive!
which I thought they would arrive today actually :/
In the afternoon, seeing as it was still pouring down outside
me and mum got to work on my chair
basically I brought my chair from Argos a few years back for £29.99
I liked it cus its the style of chair I get on with in my room and it was pink!
trouble was that the padding went pretty fast
so I was sat on a poncho mia brought me a couple of christmas's ago
I decided enough was enough as it was hurting my bum
so we brought foam yesterday and today we got to work
Mum helped with ever aspect of my chair covering
from making the template to cutting out the foam and finishing it
once the foam was on we picked up the poncho I had been sitting on
and started to staple it onto the chair
I had washed the poncho yesterday dont worry XD
and now it looks and most importantly feels amazing!
so much more comfier no longer feel im sitting on bolts!
We left some bit dangling as thats how it always looked with the poncho
thrown over it, Tiffin here is modeling for us
When the rain finally eased a lil we went for a quick
walk round the neighbour hood as my god did i have an need for fresh air
so that was nice
Me and mum both agreed to get into contact with my primary school
to ask for work experience, so I started typing an email out
and mum came and spruced it up a bit for me as usual~
I will send it tomorrow morning :)
Mum and dad are going away tomorrow! D: for the weekend =.=
leaving me with pets
my pets all 5 of em are currently indoors with us
as theres a lot of fireworks kicking off right now >.>
