Both my daughters were over yesterday. 🥰 Today I went to my youngest daughter’s new house. It’s very spacious and I spent a few hundred dollars ordering her things they needed. TheEngineer went with me to troubleshoot getting their furnace and central air units running, and he figured out the...

I need to make a scale drawing of my new booth today - I haven’t bought much for it yet because I need to figure out what I want it to look like! I have the 10x20’ tent, and I paid for the historical canopy cover, but that’s about it. I’m sort of paralyzed by indecision. I spent an hour at the...

This is supposed to be my slow week, but I guess I am finding out that as a business owner, that adjective is a lie. 😂 The wholesale order has been picked up and the price has been paid in cash. Here’s a pic of all of the headpieces upstairs in my dining room, awaiting removal! I really...

I had another successful show! I made over $2000 - my goal was $1000. The crazy thing is that I didn’t sell a single large piece. Both of my Fantasticks are still in stock, as are all 3 of my Fabulosities. I sold out of dragon slap bracelets and dragon horns, and I moved about half of my Bud and...

This week is so very busy for me, since I have a two-day show this weekend, a custom order being picked up on Sunday, and real life happening outside of my business. Ahhhh! I hope to have three different combo sets for sale on Saturday - a Fantastick & a Fabulosity flower crown together for...

The improv show was fun! We met up for dinner at a restaurant downtown and then walked to the Sky Stage, which was where the show was last night. It’s a building that caught on fire 15 years ago, and just the walls are still standing - they use it for live performances of all types. It was my...

Thanks! He ended up leaving me around 5 years in, after cheating with someone who said they were polyamorous. As far as I know, they both are now together in a monogamous legal marriage in another state. That happened several years ago, and though it was extremely devastating to me at the time...

I just finished tying off Fabulosity 50. I’m taking a break before gluing all of the flowers to the crown, and then it’s time to line and then it’s done. Whew! I’m excited to see this order delivered tomorrow - MisterMoonbeam & I are going to deliver it in person up in Manheim. The PA...

I’ve finished 49 Fabulosities now!!! Sunset Halo:

TheEngineer is coming over today and is spending the night. I’ve now made 45 of 50 Fabulosities and I am so excited about being so close to having them done! I’m also stressing out majorly about a number of issues! 1. My car has two more payments and then it is 100% paid off. The emissions...

I’ve had body dysmorphia my entire life - my size never really entered into it. Therapy has helped loads when it focuses on it, but I’ve had other issues that were more important over the years! 🙃 At least, they seemed more important. Honestly, it’s improved a lot but there will always be...

I did some more research on plastic surgery. I have a lot of loose skin that ideally I would get removed, but the costs have me laughing in whatever - they’re way too expensive. Now that I’ve done more reading, I’m less enthused about it anyway. I have four areas of concern. My arms: This is...

My headpieces I sell at Renaissance Faires and faerie festivals somewhat locally to me. It’s a new business I started this year and a full time gig for me now. I don’t have much in my online shop but I do take commissions. At the moment my waitlist for custom work is full until the second week...

I scrolled up -I mentioned it in my July 7th post. I shared a couple of photos that I submitted too. lol Not all the ones I posted were ones I actually submitted though. Here are the five I sent in: I feel like the last one is a little too dark, and the one where I am all in teal is too...

So all of my friends made the LookBook! I however, did not. Not gonna lie, I was feeling really bad about this. Having body dysmorphia and then being completely rejected over something I thought I did amazing at is awful. Having everyone excitedly message me to tell me they got accepted was like...

Ahhh gotcha. lol We weren’t screened at all, but the president was not in attendance. 😆 The event did start out with disparaging remarks against him too, with tons of shouts and applause from the audience! 😁

lol what?

Photo drop! Studio updates & expanded space: This is the view from my work table seat Behind where I sit - window looks into the sauna Expanded space The far wall remains unpainted. The plan is to open that up to install a whole-house water softener in the next two years, so it doesn’t...
