There's a Ghost in My Mouth and it Talks in My Sleep

To say the least- things are tough, and I ache from the inside out.

Retail therapy. I bought some tan yarn for a big tan Infinity Scarf

I might buy studs/spikes to accent the finished product.

 

I'm also trying to figure out how to work my sewing machine

But when I do, my friend asked if we could make little Lumas to give others for xmas~

Also, my mom and I went to Walgreen's a few days after Halloween and purchased a lot of things for nearly 75% off everything. Very fun to see alot of Disney stuff sold, haha.

Happy Veteran's day btw, and sorry that this post is bland!

Tomorrow I will work on a lense review, and also I wish to review a ELF makeup haul after a nasty encounter with a product I recently bought.

Nails nails nails (´◉◞౪◟◉)

(´◉◞౪◟◉)I used nail polish and made melty glasses for a commission!~

So, my mom has been exhausted so we didn't go to the exhibit

but! I did get my nails done

The BG image comes from i my friend Christian's artbook :>

I love them! The new place I go to actually does 3-d art and they even have swarovoski!

Though I didn't go Saturday, I still went out with a friend, ate, tried new stuff, and did crafts!

Pho!~

And then later that night I tried boba

It was ok, I got tired of the bobas after awhile...But the milk tea reminds me of coffee.

And I my friends....I am a coffee fiend.

So when we got back we worked on Thanksgiving cards for our school's keyclub.

They go to the children in our surrounding hospitals!~

We plan to keep making more until they are due, haha! 

Also, Halloween is tomorrow! 

Hopefully I'm less busy to spend it and dress up a BIT tomorrow.

:'< I have an exam the following day...

See you June 22nd!

Hello Hello!

I was wanting to throw in more blog posts but I'm still rushing to pack :C

Yesterday I started and finished a phone case though!

I decided to be more organized this time LOL

This probably took the longest, but I was content! It was my first time really putting in a sort of pattern : >

I got nervouse at this point, but I got positive feedback so I kept going.

There's usually one point in time where I think everything is absolute poop ;A;

And here is the finished peice!!

In the end I was so happy, I hope this summer I get to make more cases <3

I also hope when I get back I can see alot new friends!!

But until then please be patient until I get back, and enjoy your summer!

Craft-therapy ( ´ ； ω ； ` )

Hello Dears!

I thought I'd shove in a post before I spend my school-free Monday studying.

I was invited to the beach, but I feel like I'd be sad there...haha

You see, I was going to see someone very special Monday

 Due to memorial day the train won't be running

So I'm just very bummed atm!~

Not to fear! I pulled out some tissue paper, I wanted to make something beautiful ♥
I got the idea to make these flowers when I needed to give a few birthday gifts a more Spring feel

You can see the ones I made today are alot better than the green/blue ones, they were my first time!
But the gifts were Oreo Truffles that I made

Sweet gifts ⇒ You can never go wrong *U*

Not only that, but I spent the weekend rearranging my shelf, Hopefully I'll finish it up to share with you all. 
I'll share with you my plans for summer when my finals are out of the way also!

                                Sweet Dreams,

Mini Vacation (Food + crafts)

This post is a week late, so sorry i've been busy!

I had a "mini" vacation to my Aunt's last week

We've all been stressed and busy between family matters and school work

So I came up with the idea to scrapbook the camping trips my grandpa has been on with my day to cheer my grandpa up!

My sister and I missed Friday of school and we left for my Aunt's to go out for sushi

All the food was yummy!

I loved the Mount Fuji Roll (last photo) it was delicious!!

Then we got to working on the scrapbook.

My aunt owns ALOT of scrabooking things, along with making jewelry.

Her craft room is insane!! I want one like this when I have my own home *A*

But away from the room of my dreams aha, we pulled out all the scrapbooking things we needed and got to work!

As you see from all our shapes, she has gadgets! She owns the cricut (info here), some die-cutters, and lots of punchers. soooo sooo many things!

 

It was all really fun! and it was a success : >

We presented it to my grandpa Monday and he really loved it <3

I'll be going back to scrapbook my plays and sweet 16 I think!!

Sorry for such little commentary </3 when you scrapbook, it's alot of falling into this creative trance and looking up to see 4 hours have passed like nothing. It's crazy!

More coming soon!

Roller Coaster Weekend ಥ u ಥ

Hello Everyone~~

I was meaning to post Sunday, as most post. But it was really a rough day.

None the less, Happy (late) Mother's Day!

before I get into my Mother's Day, I'll share with you a little project I started :3

 

 

I was able to get around to start decorating my photo album for my puri kura that I bought some time ago

(The polka dot one from a few posts back)

I ended up cutting out stars from a stencil and punching out stars from a shape puncher I have.

Ugh, next time I'm going to my Aunt's for that stuff ; u ; she has one of those nifty scrapbook cricket cutters that makes cute shapes. I'm going this weekend though! Maybe I'll bring along some of my paper and have a little party.

about 3 hours later (majority spent on cutting all those stars out ; u ; ) this came about!

I can't wait to take more, hopefully I'll have alot more with friends this summer!

& sorry about the tumblr urls, ; u ; I forgot to make a blogspot url for these pics (aka no reason to go back and re-edit just to take of "na" and switch site names OTL)

And as for my Sunday!

I went to see my grandpa for the first time.

; u ;  it was pretty hard....idk I'm very weak when it comes to emotions for family?

For Mother's Day, My Aunt and Mom wanted to treat my Grandma out since she's been cooped up taking care of my grandpa, so my dad stayed back and took care of him with my uncle.

We decided to hit up the Red Robin by the craft stores to get some scrapbook stuff after

I must say, the freckled lemonade is AMAZING!!

so pretty and delicious <3 we all split an onion ring tower (...a literal tower! ; u ; idk where the pic went...)

I wasn't too hungry, so I had a half 1/4 of a burger, a riblet, and some onion rings :3

Everything was good, but that place is very family friendly...Which equals LOUD.

Everything was going really great, but my aunt got a call that my grandpa had collapsed.

So currently, he's back in the hospital~ Please wish him well.

I'm pretty down due to this :C it's been really up and down~~

All of this is giving me a headache!

This weekend I'm going to my Aunts to surprise my grandpa with a scrapbook of all the camp-outs he goes to with my dad. I hope it makes him really happy <3 I love my Grandpa alot!

Let's hope for a better day!

with love,

Rei

Craft shopping day! (+Making of a Luma doll)

Finally my performances are over and I can breath!

So last weekend I went on a craft shopping day with a friend. She said she wanted to make Lumas so it just seemed to be the perfect time to his the craftstore!

If you haven't played Mario Galaxy, This is a luma on the top right

I've never played the game before, but it's so cute!

First we ate at this really yummy place called Ono BBQ

We split this, but their breaded Chicken was the best part! We should have just gotten that platter, since we weren't so crazy for the grilled chicken.

There's nothing to interesting about what we did/got while in the craft store.

We sat at Starbucks for awhile so I took pictures and played Super Mario Bros

Note, it was cooler last week. The weather change was making me catch a cold. Now I'm feeling a bit sick again, but I always get sick from projecting after all my plays have finished. 

I suppose that I didn't take any decent makeup pictures. But I used 2 lashes that day. Full sephora ones and these peicey ones from P&C That made the ends fuller.

My friend's little sister brought along her 3DS. It's interesting! you can change the 3d option, which is helpful. It's really confusing to me though, haha. Also, to be honest the appearance isn't to my taste, I love the matte design to my DSi way too much. But the 3DS's game where you can shoot at yourself is super fun!

But, let's just get onto what i got!

I wasn't planning to get alot, but if you take me past the baby fabric section you're asking for my wallet to get empty. I saw this adorable bear fabric!! I might make a pillow out of it, but I don't know. I always find cute stationary at the $1 section too! The photo album will be for purikura. I'm going to scrapbook cute pages!

So if you lovely readers take purikura and want to send me some you definitely should!!

I bought a little bottle of Makeup Forever fixer, I'll review when I use it. My friend and I also got matching butterflies, but her's is a seafoam green, also a little makeup bag. I went to Target for new pants, and found out for the first time that day the amazing prices ELF has. So I got lots of brushes!! The press powder is too dark for me, but when I apply it with the face brush it's just a warmer glow. I also got a contour brush.

And for the luma plushie! My friend got both pink and blue fabric. This was our first luma and it was hard to make so we could only make a pink one at the time, lol.

I did alot of the sewing of the luma, Nhi went on to cutting out eyes, and sewing those on, if you can't tell what her nails are, they're sakura. They're super cute, you can see a photo here!

And the finished result!

After AP testing we plan to make and sell them. For people at school though, idk if we'll sell online, we'll see how bored we are this summer I guess!

Speaking of summer, I plan to tell you guys some great products to use for this summer.

Until then, see you later!

xoxo,

Rei

ps.Sorry if this post is a little messy! I have a bad headache ; u ; <3
