throwback to a small coffin-shaped trinket box completed in 2016. These are, I think, the prettiest, daintiest gears I’ve done to date (5.2017).

Throwback to 2013 when I created this “Beedle the Bard” faux book. Pyrography on pine.

A box from 2013, pyrography on basswood. The client who commissioned this loves everything creepy and macabre, and is still one of my favorite clients to work with.

Throwback Thursday to my 2011 shadowbox with a Wonderland theme. I’ve certainly improved in the last six years...

I didn’t find this, per se; one of my acquaintances did. But he posted a pic of it and I saw it and NEEEEEEEEEDED it. So lucky he was able to snag it for me! So this is, from what my mother tells me, an old (late seventies maybe?) potpourri holder. The light at the top heats up the potpourri in the bowl. This one’s all hand-made from real starfish and a coconut. SO freaking tacky! <3

Kids.  Teenagers.  As someone staring 40 in the face lemme tell you a thing.

You are going to be horrified and embarrassed at some point by the shit you are doing now.

And you are going to wish with all your might you’d done more of it.  

You’re gonna wish you had more selfies, more photos, more videos being dumb with your friends.  You’re going to wish you’d had your hair even higher or your shoes even sparklier.  

Go.  Document the shit out of your ridiculous life.  Fuck trends but if you wanna be trendy, go all in.  Fuck in-groups and subcultures but if one sings to you, do it all.  Be exactly as cool or punk rock or goth or fandom or country or hardcore or hip hop or whatever, and don’t let anyone tell you differently.

Just don’t hurt people.  That’s the only thing you’ll ever genuinely live to regret.

IMPORTANT. TRUTHS.

Booth setup, Steampunk World’s Fair 2017 Embassy Suites hotel room, split between three vendors; I had one 6′ table and one 4″ raised table. Also a bottom shot of my revised-but-still-in-progress Twilight Sparkle. Sadly, it’s not the best angle. The bustle is “held up” with cutie marks. Since I was also vending, I didn’t bother with much makeup or the purple-and-pink wig.

There are a whole bunch of new pins in the Etsy shop, by the by...

i witnessed the most fascinating thing today imo…my 4th grade art class were talking while they did their work and one of them was like “if you work hard all your life…….it means NOTHING” and their response was to all crack up and start running with this bit like. “you work all your life on an oil painting. the mayor comes in. he says ‘i didn’t even ask you to do that painting.’” they kept going giving examples of nothing mattering and laughing hysterically. they’re 9. like, we think OUR humor is depressing or w/e, how are THEY going to be

Millennials are depressed but the Gen Z kids are straight up nihilists

A couple weeks ago some friends and I went to a trampoline place, basically us and a bunch of ten year olds bouncing around. There was this one area where there were like these little trampoline runways into one of those cube pit things, a couple kids were doing tricks going into the pits. This one little kid goes up and says, “I call this one ‘my life has no meaning anymore’” and just rolled into the cube pit

Minute of Kal Penn appreciation. This restored my faith in humanity.
