I’m working on a kabillion things!! Slowly adding more things to the shop. Tomorrow some more cupcake hats are going up!

I love sending cute things to cute people! 🙂

This Saturday night is Locketships’s 4 Year Anniversary & Galactic Glitter Launch Party! at Meltdown Comics in L.A. I unfortunately can’t be there, but my new crochet painting will be!

Orbit the raccoon inside his rocketship is Locketship’s logo! So I crocheted him flying through a donut meteor shower for that Twinkie Chan touch! I used a bunch of different yarns, some buttons, and a bunch of pom poms. Go check it – and a ton of other fun stuff – out! It looks to be an action-packed night!

Pre-order your turkey hats and turkey tissue cozies now! The sooner your order, the sooner I crochet and ship! You have until Nov. 15 to guarantee Thanksgiving delivery in the U.S. 🙂

I played with a new business card design the other day, and the cards just came in this afternoon.

I’m not crazy about them, since I think that both sides look like the back of a card. I don’t know. I can’t explain it. I think the “front” with the business name is too busy, plus the giant contact info is kinda weird. Taking the sprinkles out of the equation made the front look a lot cleaner, but I loves my sprinkles!

I am planning to re-vamp the website/blog sooner rather than later, so I’ll have to change up the cards accordingly at that point anyway.

It was at least fun to play with something different! When I first designed my business cards/logo, I of course really wanted to use PINK, but then for some reason, at that point, I felt like it would be too obvious for me to have a pink and girly logo, so that’s why I chose BLUE for my main background color. So it was fun to let out the pinks and cakes and strawberries and rainbows for a little bit!

Now I’m going to be gearing up for Thanksgiving and the holidays. Turkey hats, turkey tissue cozies, and maybe turkey mittens coming soon! Anything else you’d like to see turkey-style?

P.s. a couple people asked about my shoes in my last entry. Those are my everyday shoes. I just ordered 2 more pairs! They are by Demonia and they are called “SPRITE.” I buy them on Amazon! Just search on Amazon for “demonia sprite” and they should pop up :).

Tiffany and Daniel invited us to party that they and their friends were throwing on the S. S. Jeremiah O’Brien on Saturday night. We got there REALLY late, because Hairy had to work at the gallery, and Manda and I still had to put together some kind of costume to wear, sewing on buttons and cutting out collars at the last minute. Everything turned out fine, and we had so much fun trying to take a million pictures during the last hour of the party! Costumes: success! Except, for some reason, my nylons were REALLY SHINY.

Here are my fav photos:

Tiff made her own mermaid costume! I’m sad Hairy didn’t get the bottom of her costume with the mermaid tail!

That’s us trying to mimic some mannequins at F21 we saw earlier that day!

Outfits: (we tried to buy pieces that would be usable even after Halloween)
$5 sailor hats from some shop online that we sewed golden bows and buttons to.
Dresses: H&M, and we added gold buttons from JoAnn Fabrics
Coats: Converse All Star from Target
Collars: pieces of fabric cut out about 5 minutes before we left the house

Here’s a video of us exploring the ship!

And I’ll put the rest of the photos behind a cut!
