That's it then...

... another Christmas is gone, but I did enjoy it.

Had presents, good company and food... even a sauna at friend's and her family. Truly a royal treatment of which I can't be more than grateful.

Still somehow... I feel miserable at the moment and the problem is I really don't know why.
Luckily Goldeneye (our black cat) forgives me even though I snap at him angrily at times... it makes me feel bad afterwards even though they were only words...

I didn't yell, but sounded irritated. I know, I'm a mess, since I don't know my own feelings, why they bother me and all...

I'd certainly would like to know.

I have done "art" but nothing of drawings or paintings though I've been staring at my empty canvases, thinking what to paint.

I've done Xmas cards for next year (maybe for two to come)...
...more miniature stuff in Barbie size...

Tomorrow, I mean today, after I've slept, I really should clean my crafting/ the dining table of my sh*t and prepare for my birthday. Yeah... I'll be 26 years old in two days...
I'm actually, quite nervous of my birthday though I really shouldn't.
I'm used to being the organizer/ being in charge of things like parties, but now since I don't know what's going to happen on my aging day...
I know my honey and our dear friend have done great and very kind since they really wanted me to have a memorable birthday... but I can't help but to worry. I know, I'm a worry-worth...

*sighs deeply* Well, my headache's starting to get the best of me... I should go.

Till next time, um... Have fun, and sorry... this was pretty depressing to read.

J.

10 days to go...

... till it's Christmas eve!

My honey has been baking gingerbreads today... 

And I've been taking care of my bum :P Feeling better day by day, but I'm still a little worried, how I'll heal. I'll still try NOT to stress so much about it :)

What else? Well, we got a new plant baby, Xmas hyacinth ^^
It hasn't bloomed yet, but we'll see... I wonder what color the flowers will be... :)


I'm glad the Xmas tree mug (one of my fleamarket findings) could help the baby ^^ I love hyacinths.

Also her! :D 

I also put up pictures (on my FB album) about my craftings.

I'm not going to put all them here, but here are some of the most important ones:

I've done three Barbie size calendars for my dolls. Here are the covers and some of my personal favorite pictures of some months (months are written in Finnish and the dates are based on real dates.) :

My 1st ever self-made Barbie size calendar!

2nd.

3rd. Moomin, for a little girl doll or a mama doll who likes Moomin.

January. The text says: "Celebrate the change of the New Year."

October, as you might guess from the Halloween pumpkin I've drawn.

December. Found the perfect picture for it: the official Raskasta Joulua CD cover: Tulkoon Joulu Akustisesti - the newest CD, xmas songs in acoustic and in heavier tone ;)  yeah! /,,/

July.

February.

Another calendar and another December. More traditional picture, at least here in Finland.

My favorite character from Moomin series.

October.

I really liked doings these ^^

Here are the snack pictures I've promised to show, also all handmade by me.

Chips in a bag.

Fazerina chocolate candies. Love these in real life, too!

More chips in Pringles type tubes.

Need to make more of these or any other foods for dolls ^^

Well, that's for today. I'll be off to craft the newest house now.

Till next time, get crafty and be creative!

Love; J.

Pain in the ass (Literally)...

Okay, I went to see a doctor this morning and had my upper bum's situation checked. Luckily I didn't need to wait long and my new hometown's hospital isn't that far away from my home.

Just as my honey and I had thought... in grown hair.
Got a sort of painful treatment as the female doc and nurse helped me by squeezing all the "stuff" out of the abscess. Luckily they got everything out and much blood with it which is good as the doc said... sorry, I know, gross...

But now I'm getting better and treating it carefully to heal... though I'm still a little bit sore, but there is nothing to worry about now. It's sometimes hard to sit as I can't just lay around all day doing nothing.

My darling and our furry son have been the best home nurses I have ♥ Love them so much ♥
Goldeneye (our black lovechild aka furball aka tomcat and so on...) slept near me at the foot end of our bed all night, guarding me ♥ He's very affectionate of us, which (of course) doesn't mind us ^^ ♥

Artsy stuff... I did craft the newest doll house yesterday even thought I was in pain with my bum. I still - don't - have pictures of the doll house, sorry! I unfortunately tend to forget to take pictures during the making process... -.- I'll try to do that with this project.

But, now I'm pretty much tied to bed and trying to heal. Fortunately I heal quick :)

Till next post, we're halfway done before it's Xmas eve ^^
Take care, people!

Love, J.

On the cold winter morning...

Nah, it's really not that cold ( - 7 C or so ), but I'm up :D I mean, my going-to-bed times have been more "rock n' roll", meaning going to sleep when normally workers wake up in the morning.
Yes, I'm an night owl.

Today I'm going to go shopping with my honey... just to walk around the city and eat out ^.^

As for artsy stuff, I've been factoring cards and crafted things in Barbie size, like calendars for year 2016, snacks ( = chips canisters and bags, candy packages...), the unfinished doll house for Themasabah and Lagoonafire... um, I have a new project in mind, too.
Another doll house! ( surprise :D ) Also with only three rooms, since I'm starting to have difficulties to store my crafted things...

I'll post pictures later of my works... Now I'm off to make something for breakfast.

Till next time, enjoy winter mornings in peace ;)

Love, J.

Pink pink pink~

Hi!

It's been a rather pink day for me :D

Got a phone call from my mom, my packages arrived in the post office ( my orders from EMP and a Xmas present box from my mother to my honey and me ♥ )... and I found pink cuteness from the nearest ( to my home ) fleamarket, at cheap prize, of course.

Here are my findings:

I like cute stuff, as I've told before... 

The pillow is small(ish) ~ the chair is doll size and Jigglypuff is my second Pokémon soft toy.

My first was small (Pokéball size) Squirtle. 

Now I'm watching Marie Antoinette (2006). I like Kirsten Dunst and she looks pretty in the movie. Yet I've had times I've facepalmed to all the rules and acts of the time lived in the movie - late 1700s and so on... I do like the style in art, interior design and clothes. Not all those "pumpkin dresses". Ah, the pastel pink hair looks nice on Kirsten... Okay, I'll stop now.

As on art... I have been crafting less than usual. I've been crocheting mostly, but today I'm having a day-off of that. The doll house's still undone... I've had problems with sitting on anything hard. I hope this painful thing leaves me alone soon...

Couple of days ago I was at Rinmaru's, doing story art with the manga makers they have...

Here is a picture combo from one Beyblade fanfic of my honey and mine.

(upper row) Bryan ♥ Mariah ~ Ozuma ♥ Hilary 

(lower row)  another B x M pic ~ Miguel ♥ Mathilda

Okay, I'll be off now to continue with the movie.

Till next time! 

ℒℴνℯ, J.

6th of December

I'm keeping storytelling short today...

...since it's the Independence day of Finland.

Happy Independence day, dear home country Finland and a humble thank you to all veterans ♥

I'll return to celebrate my country ^^

Till next time!

ℒℴνℯ, J.

✿ Cards ~ Papercuts ~ Memories ♥

Phew, almost forgot to update here... Sorry!

So, what I've been up to today? Well, took a trip to the grocery store nearby ( with my honey, of course ♥ ) and visited Subway
 : 9

I found cheap ( from the SALE box, I usually love those ♥), two stacks of hobby cardboards - 50 baby blues and 50 sand brown colored so 100 in total. I've been making self-made/homemade postcards, got to 36 different cards, mostly in vintage style.

While factoring with the cards, I've been listening to my old CD's from my teen years. 

Fell in love with Sevendust's Skeleton song again and realized how I have missed that song! 

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

 

*me n' my feet in sync with the song*

  

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

But yeah, I'll go and fetch myself something to munch and go to write since I'm in that mood :D

Till next time, rock on! /,,/

ℒℴνℯ, J.

Blah, nothing special, I guess...

Like I said, nothing special. Slept long, been decorating a cheep picture album and my darling and mine's couple book.
I've also been crocheting a baby blue colored shirt for Luke O'Connell, my OC male doll. Let's pretend it's his wife's hand made gift for her Aussie husband.

Got a call from my dad yesterday, too. We talked a long while and yeah... I'm happy he's doing well though his medical condition is what it is. No mental problems (fortunately), but physical (inside his body). I don't want to tell more about that matter...

Feeling the usual recklessness... wanting to do this and that at the same time. I should have couple of hands more to do all I want.

I don't have pictures of the O'Connell family members yet, but I did "play" at Rinmaru's again and did story art for two different Beyblade-related stories I've been writing with my babe.
Yes, we like to write, A LOT. :D

But yes, here are Mariah ( a.k.a Mao) Wong  and Tala Valkov ( a.k.a Yuri Ivanov), a couple kissy kissy picture, just perfect for the particular story of ours ^^

I think they look pretty together :)

...and here Mariah is with Bryan (Boris) Kuznetsov, another couple picture, but from a different story of ours. Bryan's hair could have been better, but that was the closest I could get.

These two don't look that bad either ;) ♥

But yes... I'll go back to crochet or whatever I have in mind ;D

Till next post... Um, remember to kiss your partner ;)

♥, J.

We meet again...

I'm up again at this hour... Took a nap at wrong time, but I just couldn't stay awake any longer.

Yesterday was fun in the end, since we (honey and I) ended up on shopping again : P
Finally bought Howleen Wolf's (Monster High doll) Geek Shriek doll, too ♥ She's really cute and I love that orange/pink hair (♥▽♥)

Here are pics from Google of her and how she looks (Doll irl and official art version):

Plus, found many colorful yarns at cheep prize! Sometimes they are better than candy 

It's the time of the year, I blame on that :D

And we did decorate our home into Xmas mood ;) Turned out really nice (⌒▽⌒) ☆

I'm eagerly waiting for mail! The package from EMP and a thick letter from my mom ♥ (◕‿◕)
Posted some self-made Xmas cards and one present yesterday as well :)

I REALLY should be crafting that doll house ready. I got so many ideas and a totally new one for a large family ~ The O'Connell's in three generations ^^. I'll add pictures here later.

But now, off to surf in the web :D

Till next time... Don't lose your Xmas spirit! ;)

ℒℴνℯ. J.

Rise and shine ( （°□°） Whaaat ?!? )

Not really.

Just happened to get up scared of my honey's phone ringing, just to realize it was just my mom. Silly, I know :D

Been up ever since the phone call and ordered some more presents for my darling to give on Xmas and on her coming birthday ♥ ( I hope she likes... (#◔◡◔#) ♥ )

So, can't tell what I ordered...
Only that I got myself two posters : P
There was only two left of the other, so I acted quick and got it! :)

Okay, the second scare of today... We got mail! Just now... *goes to check*

Anyhow... I'll be off and doing stuff. Catch you later ;)







ℒℴνℯ, J.

Xmas already???

No, but I sure did feel great, when I got to go for shopping with my darling (⌒▽⌒)♥

Bought myself presents, which I'm not going to wrap in a paper and store for 24th. I've bought presents for my darling earlier on November, wrapped, stored and hidden them already as well :D *feeling clever*

Found cheep and lovely things for crafting and sewing, and a very nice shop I'm going to visit again some day ♥

A good-looking male doll and Barbie doll ( an ice skater!! ♥ ) which I'm going to pair up ;)
Now there's a family, since I already had a daughter for the couple :)
And a kind mother-in-law ( Yes, there can be one ;) ).

A tattoo-coloring book, I liked the designs and since I have tats myself, then why not :D

A new mouse for my laptop. Got it cheep and it should be a good one since it's Microsoft's and my old one is the same. I'll store that for later use ^^

Then some snacks for late evenings :P

I also did a good deed today since I saved a little girl's phone from smashing under bus's tires. I saw the girl running with her mother (or grandmother ?? ) the crosswalk, while we (my honey and I) were walking through the same zebra at the same time. I tend to look down while walking so I noticed a black phonecase on the snow and picked it up quickly. Once I was on the other side of the road, I turned around and yelled after them, and the girl was already coming towards me to get the phone.

She thanked me and the mother smiled. I'm happy I happened to notice the phone on time and that the little girl got it back safely.

Maybe this was a small move, but I'm glad I did it. Made my heart warm as well :)

Now I'll be off to write stories and/ or craft again.

I'm so happy it's finally December and that we have snow ♥

Till next time, happy 1st of December!! and be creative ;)

♥ J.
