Home

Because today was a day off, I get to stay home so I took advantage of this beautiful natural lighting and practice using my dslr. Even though I've had this camera for a good amount of time, I didn't actually use it that much at all. It really is hard to get a result I want with a dslr but I will get there u3u

Here are some sort of decent pictures:

Blog Plan

A friend of mine has recently reminded me of this blog's existence. I realized that after I had made this blog, I have done absolutely nothing, so I thought I should write out a plan to help me organize my thoughts on what to do with this blog.

I will start with:

• Fashion - either OOTD's or just things I've been interested in
• Product reviews - mostly beauty products probably, and maybe just hauls
• Food - Recipes?? Or just pictures of really good food hahha.
• Cosplay Progress - I've always been interested in cosplay but I haven't really been doing much. But when I do, I'll be sure to post some progress.
• Life - What's a blog without journal entries hahaha. I want to start training myself to notice things in life and be able to write about it, so this could be a start.

I think this is about it and I should make this my 2014 New Year Resolution. Wish me luck !! ;3;

[DIY Tips/Tutorial] Matryoshka Hoodie

1. Find a scratch paper or just paper, ANY PAPER IS FINE. Ok now put it on top of your hoodie that has been folded in half and placed on a flat surface. Sketch where you want the the designs to be on the paper. (I used a reference for this so you can do that if you want) When you're happy with it, cut it out and place it on the hoodie. NOW CRY OVER HOW MISSHAPED IT ACTUALLY IS AND HOW IT REALLY IS NOT THE RIGHT SIZE-- ok no, if you don't like it, redraw, cut, repeat, until you're satisfy. 

2. Once you're satisfied with the design, grab another paper or card stock paper or whatever you have on hand. Put the cut out pieces onto the new paper, making sure they are where you want them to be, and trace it out. I suggest doing it with pencil first, then trace is again with a sharpie. You know, just in case.

3. a.Cut out the shape again. Now you can use this on the hoodie so you can just slap down paints all you want. 8)

    b. GET YOUR BLACK ACRYLIC PAINT. YEY Time for the fun painting part. Place the template onto the hoodie tape it down if necessary. Use a huge brush or a sponge brush thing, and just paint it in completely. Wait for 10-20 minutes and put on a second coat. 

    c. After the second coat is dry, take off the template. Find a small brush and use it to fix any edges, or spots that you've missed. Also remember, to draw the dots around the eyes.

4. a. Wait for maybe 30 minutes for the black paint to COMPLETELY DRY for this step because you don't want your white paint to turn gray. Use another small brush with white acrylic paint and draw the teeth. You can draw them however you like. Straight, crooked, sharp, round, really anything is fine. Then draw the white ring inside the eyes. I made it about a quarter inch wide.

    b. Wait 10-20 minutes and put on a second coat. Repeat if more coats needs to be put on.

5. FINAL RESULT. Wait for one side to completely dry before turning it around to do the other side. I actually waited overnight. (Because I got lazy lol)

TADA I hope this help anyone who is interested in making this matryoshka hoodie design. I think using fabric paint will give a better result, I'll have to try that next time, with the RIGHT COLOUR SWEATER ugh.
