Remember Me?

Hi (: I finally got to updating my blog.  I think it's been long enough... Hehe

Here is one of the things that's kept me from posting:

This was my project for F.I.T. & it took me quite a long time to fill it up but it feels good to have finished it!  

And here's my outfit for today ♥

Top: Forever 21

Shorts: Garage

Necklace: Forever 21

So Much to Do, So Little Time

I feel like I have a never ending To Do  list.  It's crazy.  Let's see, I have to:

1. Read a whole play for English by tomorrow.

2. Study for a math test(most likely not happening.  I think it's impossible for me to study for math)

3. Look for inspirational photos, magazine clippings, fabrics, etc for my F.I.T class (which is amazing, btw.  My professor's name is Christopher Uvenio.  He is from Italy and has worked for designers like Donna Karan and Bob Mackie.  Right now he has his own menswear line, I believe and it's sold in Europe.  He is so unbelievably creative and I am so thankful to be in his class.)

4. Post my blog award post.(Wasn't that redundant.. & I may incorporate that into this post)

5. Send out products to be reviewed by the girls I mentioned in an earlier post, on youtube.

6. Find a crochet pattern for a beanie for a one year old. (If anyone knows of any, please let me know!  I know how to make the actual hat but the sizing is throwing me off)

7. Start crocheting baby hats. (I'm making 4 for one customer, but she wants them for next winter so I've got time)

8. Finish sewing bias tape onto bolero I'm making.  (I finished this, this morning but it's been on the list for a while so I decided to write it.  It's nice seeing I have at least one thing done.)

9. Clean my room. ( This one is always temporarily leaving my list but when I start catching up on everything else, it somehow appears again.)

10. Buy makeup needed for dance competition.

11. Study for S.A.T.

12.   & I'm sure there's more that I don't even want to think about at the time being.

I'll have to post about my awards and reward other bloggers later! <3

Wishful Thinking

Heythere (: You could probably tell from these designs that I can't wait for spring!  This feels like the longest winter ever.  This weekend is supposed to be really nice, though.  

& I'm actually really happy with how the jumpsuit came out (:

(I really need to get my scanner fixed! ewkfhjjfn!)

So, I got a haircut today & got my highlights touched up.  Jack, my crazy and lovable hairdresser, also added a different color to my bangs.  I like the change ;D (even though it may not be very noticeable in these photos)

Tomorrow is my first day at F.I.T. (yay!) which means I have to wake up super early D: but that's okay.  It's worth it ;)

Some More Etsy Business

Hiya.  I feel like I've been lacking with posts lately but I've been a little busy.  This one will be pretty short.  I've decided on a foundation to donate 10% of the proceeds from my Etsy shop to.  It's the Have a Heart Children's Cancer Society.  If you are interested in making donations(other than buying from my shop, hehe) you can click here.

Today, my mom, my sister, and I went shopping and made a stop at Michael's, the craft store.I bought these adorable little satchels to send out headbands in.

I found matching ribbon, to maybe wrap around my scarves to give them some kind of pretty little packaging.  

I also ordered adorable business cards, so I am pretty excited.  I've received an order for four baby hats from a lady my aunt works with.  They're for next winter so I have quite a considerable amount of time to make them, which is pretty nice.

This is turning out to be quite a boring post but I do have one more thing to say.  Two girls, Natasha and Maddy from Youtube have contacted me asking me to send them some products to review on their website.  Here's the link to their channel.  I've started making their headbands, so keep an eye out for my review. ;D

Btw, my workshop at F.I.T. starts this Saturday!  I'm so excited ;)
