AFK Updates and dusting off blogger

@; at work

Welp! After a few months on word press, I decided I much prefer blogger I have decided. =C What can I say I love google =.=; take my money...

My domain will expire soon I think, and while I technically have the space until FEB I am going to go ahead and move back home. *snuggles blogger* I moved all the post over, need to clean em up and upload proper images, but just some general cleaning. I also want to redo the layout, as its so simple and its simply because I am lazy. So many of my friends use custom ones I should as well. 

So for the entire month of SEPT I was a lazy bum. I seriously did not do anything productive. I think I did laundry once, and I did not cook really either, did some ramen nights....I just sorta came home, chilled and such, *cough* Denver has been a bad influence on me. Don't get me wrong it was a great month but I feel better checking things off a list than just hanging out on the couch. I was sorta lost anyway, I hated starting over on word press and I missed blogger, even if the hits are possibly off, I enjoy knowing a few people get them. WP was just as bad however, I got over 1000 messages a week that were spam sales comments. 

So after much thought and pondering I am just coming back as is, update a few things and keep on trucking. I am still into the same stuff. I didn't craft all SEPT either. I had stuff I wanted to do in OCT but I never got around to it. I just didn't feel like it. I ended up 'splurging' on dollar store items and it turned out cute either way. I did get a few more items and I am testing Ikea furniture for myself now too. 

items I added to 
collection:
 & 
Had to own these, of course. Waiting on second set still. Gotta find a shelf to display these on still. I very much adore the first set so far.


 

Actually sold the farther two, just wanted the SM ones D: now I have all her wants *0* 




Mildly happy with these, the back was engraved wrong but they are made from China and are not official anyway, they are great quality overall though. I advised the user that they were off, but I do not know if they will fix or even if they can.



Love these guys too, I am loving the new SM items. I did not want the big versions for whatever reason but these cute chibi versions are adorable. 

I am sure I picked up some cute stuff. I'll dig around for any haul pics I took. There are so many more items I want as well. I have a large Aliexpress cart going for end of week pay check. Excited for that, I'll post it once I get it actually ordered. 

Okay that's a start, will start cleaning and putting info into pages after work.

Memo Update

I originally wanted to do a visual of what I had, memo wise, but it was kind of intense. So a quick summary will be a bit better. I have only gotten a few new planet items since my last video - Click to watch it

First and foremost, I love my SM items D: Need moah.

I seriously ended up with more Rilakkuma than I planned. I was never a fan of their stuff

until I saw market, then the plants. I some by gifts/friends as well.

 

Love Chocopa Still. Wish they would make a few new sets of it.

Various items that don't fit other places. These I either got by mistake or

just randomly. I do like the folders though, they are helpful.

I am always willing to do trades or send out memo sheets if interested. I actually try to use my pieces as such. I did do a folder of originals to keep so I have them :3 I would like to obtain more Space items otherwise I am good, focusing on planner projects at the moment. I wish I could display these pieces better - such as a nice shelf/etc for them but current space is limited.

Kawaii Box Review

So last month I decided to try out some new subscription boxes. I started with kawaii box. I liked what I got, but I want to try a few boxes before I decide. I got Aprils on the 5th or so, been busy so I have had not had a chance to take pictures. I ate the candy already.

If you did not know, kawaii box is by Blippo.com, which is a carrier of Kawaii goods. I want to do a snack order but I am waiting on items to be restocks.

So first I love the package, it fits in my box. It was a bit squishes but I am sure it was USPS not them, they probably shoved it in my box. Inside is nicely wrapped with a variety of products. I like the variety of the products. I love the lace stickers, below, but I also like picking out my items so I can collect specific items. Like SM crystal items, or Rilakkuma Space. Love that series. Its nice to get a random bit of Kawaii int he mail too – however, it also may open up new cute fandoms for some!

So first thing I saw when I opened it, was Josh opened it first D: no really the plushie. It is adorable and good quality, however I do not know the series or need any more plush. I do not collect plushies C: I do not have the room. I barry can collect stationary but it fits neatly away. I think its adorable however and I may give it away or include it in a giveaway later.

Next the candy nabbed my attention, which is gone now. It was an orange pack of gummies. It was good. I shared of course. It took me a few chews in to relize it was not gum however, but it worked out.

 

I gravitate towards stickers so I looked at those next. First there is a roll tape, which is super cute. I will use this I am sure. I love wasashi tape. Then there are some lace stickers, which are by far my favorite thing I got. I love lace and I love that these are stickers. Then some character stickers – San-X’s Sumikko Gurashi. They are cuter in person, as I have seen these online. I may or may not keep them I am unsure yet. I try to not clutter what little space I have, so we’ll see.

  

I very much line the fine tip pen C: I got one that is angry. It writes nice and I plan to use it in my planner.

It came with some super cute nail clippers, card holder, random items (bags, sticky pad, button) and finally the card holder.

Overall I would get Kawaii Box again, it is worth it for sure, but I want to try out other boxes for now so we will see if I come back to it at the end of the testing phase. I am super excited for the edibles.

Blu Stuff Mold Review!

After doing some research on molds I COULD do, I found this site and their product. do really like it and recommend it for anyone wanting to do small simple cast. It was really nice and affordable.

http://blu-stuff.com/

I took photos of my process, below, but overall I found it simple and easier to use than the clay versions. Which I have also used.

First need to pick your box for the mold, I used some plastic I had extra. Glue it to a service. I am using a sheet of white acrylic I got for clay at home depot.

 

After gluing the box down, glue whatever you are molding down - Reminder backwards and with the pattern you want embossed up! ( the bottom will be the back )

 

Fill and let sit! See the bottom

The liquid gets in EVERY crack. So I had to trim the molds a lot when done. BUT they did cast perfectly so I did not mind. It comes with a decent amount, but I would like to get more as soon as I can to cast more items! I really liked it.

It was about 30 bucks total. I will probably order from Smooth On next time - as they are more affordable, and in the US for shipping for what you get. But it seems similar. 

Loved it. Can't wait to do more.

Febuary 2015 Purchases

SO I did not purchase too much this month, at least fun wise. Lets just get to it!

I bought some items for the house on Amazon this month;

      

Danbo for Josh, Filters for our sink, Iphone 4 case for me, Razors for him, screen protects for him, M &Ms as they brought these back and had to get some! Surge as you can order this online! I LOVED SURGE as a kid and I still do

On Aliexpress I got some supplies

  

Some basic supplies, sadly I got the wrong ends, opps - and I opted to keep them and sell them in destash. So see those eventually. Love the ball chains.

And these ADORABLE ITEMS omg I saw them on a Tumblr post and managed to find them on Ali. They are like 4 inches and rubber, they can hold items. Come in sets of 3. I asked for surprise colors. Will picture when I get them. I love macaroons! Get them here - Share

On Etsy I got the last of the items I needed for necklaces

  

For any gold pieces, bails - and then the chains are for the melty moons, as they need to 2 locations to connect then I nabbed some magnetic pieces, cause I wanted to see if my pieces looked neat as a magnet. These are from CleverDelights and was fast shipping and excellent service

 

This took a bit to get, as I actually forgot I had ordered it til I got it lol I do not know what I will do with the glob as of yet - I just always wanted one. Then two fancy ring bases to try out. From ingredientsforlovely and would order again!

And finally got the right size! I did not get gold as of yet. No use for it as of yet, but should probably get it. Got these from BaublesOfFun and got them super fast.

I also ordered some mold making items, from a company called BluStuff.

Its not here yet....I am hoping to make a mold of my melty moon mess ups and such for resin. Its suppose to be silicone style. I do not know how to do the plastic ones so I thought Id try this. If it works I am going to get more, though I may try Smooth On instead, as it comes with more and is similar. I WILL DO A VIDEO when I get it :3

FINALLY, just the usual store items. 

At Micheals I got some paper for my bows & Galaxy packages, pastel chalks as I been wanting them forever and a heart mold that was on clearance. Picked up some more round connectors as well. 

I always hit Dollar Store as well, just some usual items such as small containers and such.

I do purchase a lot, but some of this one in JAN but carried over. I LOVE shopping. This month my goal is to do a kawaii haul!

Memo Collection

Woot crapy rushed video, but this does its purpose for now! I will try to make a better one when I get storage and videos down better :3

DEC Purchases / Wants

Do I did a ton of buying for myself this month D: cause Capital One gave me a higher credit limit. Yes as  frugal as I am in everyday things, I am that person. I finished decorating room/all set up and got a few items I wanted through out the last few months. I may pick up a few more in JAN but I should probably be good.

Got on Ebay, around 11$ - LOVE IT.

Got on Ebay, around 8$ - may get a few more of these smaller ones, I love this design.

 

Got on Ebay, around 10$ total, I LOVE this. I asked the seller for the folders, so they are technically on order, just not here yet

Got on Ebay, around 20$ - hated it on me. So sad. The colors just don't work with my tone. It makes me look greeny. I cut the bangs, bleh not to great either, but I will prob put this up in resell shop cheap later in JAN. Can't take pics atm (too busy!)

Got this at target for a great price, under 40. Goes well with Ikea boxes I have

Amazon - 5$-ish; haven't gotten but they were to cute! 

Amazon - 14$-ish, LOVE it, use it every day.

Amazon - about 20 I think, unsure. For scrap paper. That crap is hard to store cause of its size. Works well. Everything but sticker box fit!

Amazon - ? Also unsure, its 1 and 1/2 I wanted to start curling my hair D: and I had none.

Amazon - 20$, a metal board for magnets! I been wanting one for in front of desk. Hope it works well, not here yet.

I also got a new calender of course, wall one is stars from Barnes and Noble - love it, its listed in the giveaway. I got a regular carry around one as well from Target, wanted to start the year fresh.

I bought several under the bed storage units, new snowflake sheets (flannel) and a dinosaur from a tourist spot that is adorable D: I think that is all. Oh a few minecraft toys for shelf. 

As for gifts, I didn't really ask for anything, got Batman PJs and clothes from my mother as usual and some money. Me and Josh did not exchange. I sent a few small gifts off to friends like BEV and Taci but that is all really. 

Its been a fabulous month for buying D: yes I am a terrible human. 

I also ordered samples of the shiny white in the mermaid stuff, that will be up for show soon I am sure. I plan to have that on hand by FEB, I am thinking 3 of each design + maybe a few other items with them.

Now for wants...which I can pretty much say I am good. I do want a new bag but I am extremely picky D: I am very happy my room is 99% complete. I need to make it match a bit more but yeah I am very happy with that.

Mostly my future goals intend paying off Room now, and getting a nice job, keeping up with things here, etc. I plan to do a goal post. I have a good amount of things planned and I hope to get them done.

Once I get caught up on Room I am going to focus on rest of house - maybe some conditions in there for home, but I am hoping!
