Resurrection

i've been super busy going to school for Graphic Design, but i'm finally getting to updating my blog and online portfolio, stay tuned!

U P D A T E

i've been itching to make a real blog post for quite awhile. and since there are so many things i haven't blogged about, there's no real rhyme or reason to what i'll put here. just a collection of things i've wanted to share over the past few months.

first off some photos i've snapped around the city. i've yet to take my pro camera on a real shoot but my iPhone works fine when i'm out and about

i've also been meaning to post all the stuff i've been doing for The Crypt, it's a great Horror App that i've been sharing lots of pics and videos on. here are some of my fave contributions thus far

i also had a short YouTube series with them showing horror makeup tutorials but right now we're focusing on making the App bigger and better! all horror fans should give it a look.

and as mentioned in earlier post i've been working a lot so i've got some nice shots from hanging around the costume shop

HIT & RUN

so here's a quick little update since i can't seem to find the time to sit down and write any proper blog entries :p my time is stretched so thin lately and i keep trying to find a flow where i can balance work with free time but my schedule keeps changing, more work keeps getting tacked on and it's becoming hard for me to keep up. i have no qualms working hard and working a lot, but when i can't find any time to do the things i want, that's when i start getting crazed. i've been super stressed for a few weeks now and it seems like there is no end in sight. it's also completely hindering any progression of the new jewelry line. i plan to work on it on my day off but i'm usually soooo tired that i end up actually taking the day off :p and then of course i have to catch up on errands and chores, and all the other stuff that gets pushed to the side while i'm at work. i'm not complaining, i like my job (which is a hard thing to find) i just wish i could find a rhythm that works and i don't feel like i'm all over the place allllll the time.

 

i'm also not really feeling my look ATM which makes things difficult daily as well. i REALLY miss all my pink hair :( i love the Burgundy but i just need more pink, it just feels wrong and looks. i really don't need to redo for awhile so i'm just going to ride it out but expect to see a lot more pink next time around :)

 

i have another project in the works that should be unveiled soon as i think i'll spend a lot of time on it today so keep an eye out for that :) might even throw another blog post up today if i find the time, but that's all for now (more morning blogging going down on my Tumblr right meow ;)

Happenings

Hello blog.

If you follow my IG and Twitter you know I am dealing with recent happenings at the moment. I'll grugenly admit it's got me pretty rattled right now. So much so I felt the need to post this blog just to release. So much so that I'm pretty sure I won't get any sleep tonight.

...I'm just super annoyed that it's bothering me this much.

I'll be blogging a more in depth post about this issue later, right now I just want to forget.

if you've been following me on IG you have probably seen me wearing this dress often. it's definitely my favorite (and only atm) jumper and my Ouija Board shirt seems to go perfect with it. since abandoning this blog months ago i've acquired quite a few dresses since then, and my style has definitely transformed some. hopefully i find the time now and then to trade out blurry cell phone pics for some photos taken with my pro camera of my daily wardrobe with more info on what i'm wearing and where i got it

i also had a quick photo shoot outside of work the other day wearing this massive antler headpiece we have. ever since it's been in the shop, all i can think when i see it is Hannibal :) i love the new NBC series, especially the fascination with horns so i put on my best Hannibal Lecter outfit and had my coworker snap a few shots. you'll have to wait to see the finished product as i've yet to edit them, but here's a sneak peek

Sneak Peek

seeing lots of rumors of a possible upcoming A7X tour. told myself i'd keep my cool until it's officially announced but consider me already excited :) i've already seen a date posted for MI (unfortunately not when i'll be there of course :p) so hopefully the rumors will be confirmed soon!

just wanted to put all my readers and customers on notice that while i'm back in MI for most of May my store will remain open but a lot of my items will not be available. also if something sells out between now and then it will be out of stock until back in Cali as well. so if you're planning to buy from my store nows the time! i'll be removing certain items as early as next week so shop now www.sugarandspicediy.storenvy.com

This was most of my day :p ...more pics soon

Calling small business owners, I'm looking to cross promote with you :) I'm looking for other established stores out there to trade flyers, business cards, and links on webpages/blogs with. Preferably within the same type of theme of items I sell but not just limited to other jewelry kids! Clothing lines, models, artist, designers, musicians, etcetera please apply.

so here's the first good pic of the new hair color i've been rocking. couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out :) i think the Burgundy/Auburn suits me really well and it just makes my dreads look so much better. for exact info on the colors and type of hair i used check last months blog entries!

and one more rocking my WOLF CRAFT Moon Necklace, i'm definitely in love with it ^-_-^
