Woah, long time no post.

Okay, much has happened from first putting up these two entries. I finished off tons of new jewelry, I now make bottlecap pendants to sell at conventions with the use of resin, and I now have officially moved out of my family's home in Mississippi. I live in Louisiana and it thrills me to think I can be around such inspiration for jewelry work as well as friends.

So, onto the entry itself:

I started doing more work with beadwork and I'm trying to wrap my brain around wire wrapping. I figure if I can understand how chain links up and how to bend it to the shape I need, I should be able to wire wrap. So, I have one of two options here...either learn to wire wrap or I take on the epic task of chain mail. I thought about it, and chain mail it is. I'm looking to make a tunic. Here's to hoping this will be worth it over time.

I'm learning how to knit. It's a thing of trial and error. My first try ended up in failure so I unraveled it. I think I should start watching videos on what to do. I think I'll get better over time. I'm wanting to make scarves for a few friends that cosplay. I'm hoping I can get good enough to make a Doctor Who scarf. Because those are the most amazing things I have ever seen. I mean, it's up there with Harry Potter!

Which, I'm going to go into my next big train of thought. If I can get good at knitting, I should knit myself a cable knit costume. Rinoa's duster. I don't like her character, but I would like to try it for my own personal enjoyment.

I kind of gave up on the thought of sewing. I don't think I have the skill level or the patience to sew. But, that's another story entirely.

I guess this is all for me, I hope it doesn't take another year to post another entry.
