My Trip to Tennessee

Just this last weekend, I went up to Chattanooga for the first time.  We were hosting two panels at Anime Blast Chattanooga.  Like all well intentioned plans, there are always little hiccups along the way.  This time we were a bit late in arriving, but regardless, we managed to have a lot of fun at the con and looking around Chattanooga.

Sunday afternoon we went to Lookout Mountain.  Here's a few of the pictures that I took while we were there. 


The dorky one on the right is me with my rock candy.  XD

New Products in our Etsy Store

Within the next few weeks we hope to have several new products available in our etsy store.  These products will be available for immediate shipping so no waiting for custom products to be made.  Here is a sample of one of the products that we currently have up in our store. 


For fans of Kuroshitsuji, you'll recognize these replica glasses made for cosplaying Grell Sutcliff.  The chain is handmade with black beads and resin skull beads.  The glasses have the lenses removed, but you can also request the chain without the glasses.

If you like these or would be interested in something custom designed, feel free to contact me and I'll be happy to answer your questions.

My Favorite Doll From the Last Set of Commissions

It's really easy to guess which one is my favorite after you see this little guy.  I was asked to make a Sebastian Vael from Dragon Age.  Needless to say at first I was a bit overwhelmed.  All of the armor was not something that I could handle.  My partner (Miss Moony ^_~) knew exactly what to do.  So I supplied her with the doll and his base clothing, and she took care of the rest.


He is still wearing removable clothing, so if another outfit should ever be requested it would be possible to switch him out.  He was really very detailed and our customer loved him.  It was absolutely wonderful to know that everything we did was so well appreciated.

I'm filling up fast for holiday commissions, so now's a great time to claim your spot.  If you have questions or would like more information, please feel free to contact me via email or Facebook.

I'll take cash for that Zydrate!

Over a year ago, I had the luck of working with a shadowcast of Repo! The Genetic Opera. I had a lot of fun doing this show. I had done more theater work when I was still in school and it was great going back to it. One of the shows we did, we were able to invite the creators of the show Terrance Zdunich and Darren Smith. These guys were really awesome people and it was really cool getting to talk with them about the show and just life in general.

It should be no surprise that when I was asked to make a Graverobber plushie, I jumped at the chance. We had made a 26" one while working with the cast as a raffle prize to help raise money for the show, but there weren't any pictures of it. We made up for it this time with our latest commission.
Commissions are still open for November and December.  Place your holiday orders early to guarantee delivery.  Contact me via etsy or facebook for more information.

Music Break

I've got a few artists that I rotate through while I'm sewing and getting work done.  I just thought I'd share this one with you because it's such a fun song.  It makes you want to get up and dance (or in my case sew XD).

GERONIMO!

I'm always excited to get a new commission request.  Sometimes it starts off simply.  "Can you make me...?"  I haven't been asked to make anything that I can't really make so far (knock on wood ^_~).  This time it was a request for a cuddly Matt Smith.  How in the world could I say no? 


He's all set and ready for a new adventure.  He's just missing River to trail behind him and call him "Sweetie".  ^_~ 

I'm still open for commissions through November and December.  Christmas orders should be placed early to guarantee delivery by the holiday.  Feel free to contact me through etsy or my facebook page for more information.

New Products and Finished Commissions Round-Up!

Good morning! 

I've got a lot of great stuff ready to show to everyone.  So my blog will be busy, busy, busy once more.  ^_^  In the last two months, I've finished my wholesale order of 30 Rocky Horror Plushies, completed eight new dolls, and worked on a lot of new products for us to sell at conventions now and in the future. 

So without further ado, I'll share some of my new dolls.  I'll start off with several classic and beloved dolls that are really popular. 

We had two 10th Doctor requests, each in a different colored suit.  It was a lot of fun getting to make them, especially since the Blue-Suited Doctor had requested his glasses.  They were so cute!!!!


  
Commissions are open for November and December.  If you are interested in ordering a doll or any of my other products for Christmas, I highly recommend that you place your orders early.  Contact me through my etsy store or on my facebook page for more information.
