Still painting…

After all of today, I’ve only painted about 40 and finished sculpting the 40. All in all, a good day. I’m going to paint until I pass out on a painted figure, drooling. I leave you with progress…

Mad Crafting

Since I got into the New People/Bazaar Bizarre, I’ve been crafting like a fiend. My goal was to create 100 sculptures and 100 cupcakes in about 10 days. That doesn’t sound so bad, right? 10 cupcakes, 10 sculptures and painting 10 each day? Well, I spent all day yesterday cutting felt. If it weren’t for my sister and my good friend Nichole, I don’t think I’d be as far along the process. With my stacks together, ready to be sewn and army ready f

or paint, It’s proving much more difficult of a task than I had imagined. Since I don’t have a lot of time to blog right now, I leave you with… my miniature army.

It’s starting to look like a factory…

I think I might have the assembly line thing down. Okay, maybe not. I did a little procrastination on this site where you can chat with completely random strangers! Anyway, I still managed to get 20 little guys tonight. *Whew* Now onto Javascript homework. I leave you with some pictures of my little army.

Last night

I stayed up past midnight working on these little guys… I’ll sell these in the show on Feb 13th, so if you’re in the market for … one of my… uhh… yeah, anyway, come on by! I’d love to see you!

Bazaar Bizarre/New People craft show!

Yesterday morning 7am:
*ZzzzZZZZ Beep zzZZZZzzz Beep zZZZzzZZZZz Beep* The sound of my vibrating cell phone alarm. I grab the phone. It’s seven already? I have to get up to buy sandwiches for the film shoot today… why did I get a phone call from Jenn at midnight and why did she leave me a voicemail? Excitement starts to build as I hold the number one to get to my voicemail messages. “New message… So… Amy… I just wanted to tell you… WE GOT IN THE CRAFT SHOW!!! *muffled sounds of our friend screaming congrats in the background* …” I was so ecstatic that I started literally jumping up and down the bed like a child. Then I feared for the poor bed under my weight and was somewhat frightened that I might break the boards, so I calmed down for a moment.

Soooo… I’m extremely excited to announce that I got into the Bazaar Bizarre/New People craft show! What will I have at the show? I’ll have these mini sculptures you see below (in the previous post), they will be encased in felt cupcakes with little snap-buttons so you can open and close the tops as you please. I’m planning on making 100 little sculptures/cupcakes before the show in less than two weeks. I will paint 80 of them and leave 20 blank, for you artistic types that would like to create your own messages for your loved ones. The show is on February 13th and will run from noon – 8pm. I really hope to see you there! Now… I must sculpt.
