Matoki Stuffed Animal

Hey guys! Meet the stuffed animal version of Matoki - B.A.P’s * mascot (if you can call it that).

I made this for my friend’s birthday. I was originally gonna make her the mascot bunny for her bias, but I wasn’t 100% sure who it was, so I was gonna make the bunny with interchangeable masks, but then I realized that Youngjae’s bunny has a full out face mask, so that made things a little more complicated. I settled on making Matoki since he represents B.A.P as a whole.

Here’s a picture of their bunnies so those of you who aren’t fans can try to understand what I’m saying :3
 

I just had to take a selca with Matoki before I gave him away to show my proudness as a crafter and a BABY (B.A.P’s fan club name). I also used the selca as an excuse to wear my facemask :3

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 에스더!!! <3

*B.A.P is a K-pop group that recently debuted this year.

random note for all you BABYs out there - I actually happened to finish this on B.A.P’s 100th day ^^

Teddy Bear

Hello my dear followers!
I’m sorry for the lack of updates, and no paypal yet. I’m still having problems with my bank account, but I’m gonna try to get it straightened out tomorrow. Hopefully I can have my papal fully set up by the time I have my next update! 

ANYWAY, I made this teddy bear last week as a baby shower gift. I worked on it pretty much the whole since I totally forgot about it >.> I think it came out pretty well considering the time frame. I finished it just in time to wrap it, and head out of the house ^-^

 

Swish~

hehe. So I know I already made a stuffed animal called ‘Wish~’, and this is really similar, but I have to say…they’re different :P

Not quite sure if you can see it clearly or not, but this was meant to be a breed between a seal and fish, but it kinda came out looking kind of like Wish~ xD
I’m still sticking to the new name cuz of the characteristic differences ^-^

Custom orders are open!
I’ll try to get my bank account straightened out soon so I can accept paypal! Thank you for your patience :D 

Inspired

So lately, I’ve been getting tons of inspiration, especially fashion-wise from pintrest and from all these different kpop trends. The only problem is that I am on an extremely tight budget right now, so there’s no way for me to experiment with my ideas :(

On a brighter note, I finished my first stuffed animal after a long pause of not crocheting. I’ll try to post it up later this week, but if you want a sneak peek, go check out my newly made twitter ^-^ (no pressure to follow me :P)

{sorry for no pictures T-T}

Cardigan - Revamped

Several months ago, I received some free studs as a gift from a supplier. I have a secret love for studded stuff, and immediately went through my closet and crafting stuff to see what I could stud.
I finally decided to stud one of my old open cardigans.

 

I chose this sweater because I only wore it once. I love the fabric and feel, but I could never really find anything to wear with it. The ‘ruffle’ edging gave it a nice girly look, but whenever I tried to wear it, there was always something about it that made it scream ‘funeral’.

Before studding the cardigan, I took in a little bit of the sleeves and a tiny bit of the upper body so it would have a better fit.
I also took my time deciding where to place the studs, and sketched out my ideas. I finally decided on studding the left shoulder.

 

I love how the sweater came out. The cardigan is now a decent balance between edgy and girly, and it no longer screams funeral.
Hopefully I can order some more studs soon and stud some more stuff. hehe :) 

Zipper Bracelets

Lately, I’ve been having an obsession with zippers and studded accessories. 
Since I’m a poor college student, I decided to make my own bracelets out of an old zipper that was fraying instead of buying my own xD (I can wear it a lot more proudly too!) 
{yay for random accidental, trippy pic :P} 

The three bracelets are made from one zipper. I put both slider bodies on one side of the zipper, and then cut it in half. I then took out the stop from the bodiless side, and put it on the other half creating the purple bracelet. The other yellow and blue bracelets are just the other half ripped apart.

I used fabric markers to color up the tape, and sewed on snaps as the closure. 

I’m pretty happy with how they turned out. I especially love how I can still zip the purple bracelet open and closed for random looks. I just don’t like how they kinda jingle all the time making hard to wear to classes, etc. Oh well :D

Experiments with Pipecleaners

Sorry for the long wait on this post! A bunch of stuff came up causing delays! Thanks for keeping with me!

So I recently came across a blog post that showed you how to make a ring with bunny ears out of pipecleaners (tutorial link here). I immediately set out to not only make those rings, but to also experiment with my own creations. I haven’t been able to come up with much yet, but when I do, I’ll be sure to post them! Here’s some pics of what I have now.

I also experimented with making a bracelet out of pipecleaners since I now have quite an abundance. I got the idea from a snack bag bracelet tutorial and replaced the shredded snack bags with pipecleaners. It took a little bit of adjusting for getting the right size.
I’m pretty happy with the results. The only thing I don’t like is how fuzzy it looks up close, but I’ll live with it :)
Lemme know if any of you guys want a tutorial for this! (I need to get back into vid making…)

I’ll try not to leave you guys hanging after this post and put some more stuff up. I haven’t been able to do a lot of crocheting lately, but I’m still crafting!
Thanks for all your support ^-^ 

Sorry!

Sorry for the lack of posts! I’m still here and crafting! I just have a lot going on between school and home right now. I’ll try to post something up later this week!

I’ve also told some of you that I planned on making a PayPal by the end of this month, but it looks like that won’t be happening due to everything that’s been going on lately. I’ll try to get that done as soon as possible and announce it!

Thank you for all your support despite my lack of consistency!

Rilakkuma Coin Purse

My coin purse is complete! I was going to make this a Hello Kitty coin purse, but I realized that I would probably get it dirty rather quickly. I opted for Rilakkuma instead since I had the color in my yarn stash, and it was still cute. Unlike the Totoro coin purse, I didn’t line this one with felt since the yarn was thicker, and was sturdy enough to hold a good amount of change.
Yay for getting to replace a chunky, wristlet-sized coin purse for this one!

Totoro Coin Purse

For a while now, I’ve been wanting to try to make my own coin purse with a purse frame (the clasp part). When I finally found some on etsy for a decent price, I couldn’t help but buy a couple to experiment with. I made this one as a friend’s late Christmas present (she’s a pretty big Totoro fan). I lined the inside with some felt to make sure it’s not too flimsy when its stuffed with change since the yarn is a little thin.
I made a different one for myself that isn’t lined with felt since I used a thicker yarn. I’m gonna try to post about that later in the week, so please anticipate!

Panda Keychain

As some of my long time followers may know, I have a mini obsession with pandas. I made this little one to put on a backpack I got recently. It had a big key ring attached to it, but there was nothing hanging off it. Thanks to this little guy, the key ring is no longer friendless :D
