Craftaholicism

So, I think I've decided that I'm a craft-somniac when I'm at home. As in, if you were to come to my house in the middle of the night - mayhaps to throw pebbles at my window then serenade me? - you would find me fully awake, most likely freshly showered and already re-covered in paint from some odd project I decided to start an hour before, at 1am. And I have been in quite the crafty mood lately, Adventure Time kicks, madame rosemerta glittery heels, my pinup retro skirt is finally finished, and I tye-dyed my first ever tshirt. Epicness. Normally this addiction would make me a little wary of the steep slope I'm on that might eventually lead me to sell my organs on the black market to make money to construct a full-out Con-ready Cosplay and get to San Diego for the International Con, but since I don't craft very much during the school year, I feel like this is justifiable. Next on my list, some jewelery, more AT shoes? Neverland? hopefully a Lady Rainacorn hat, and mayhaps some birthday goodies? Who knows. What I will say though, is try something crafty this summer. I don't care if you've never taken an art class or you're an art major. Make something awesome this summer (and obviously send me pics) something you've always wanted secretly but never had the balls to make or the money to buy. Anything from an epic cosplay to a sweet-ass bulletin board for your dorm room. Whatever, it's 2009, knock me off my feet, blow me away with your craftsmanship. And comment with any ideas for projects, because idle hands are the devils (Lady Gaga's?!? More speculation soon) workshop! Just ask Glozell. Peace out kiddles.
