Cute Disney Fairies Stufffff!

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2012

You guys. ;_;

I loooooove the Disney Fairies line… like, maybe more than Princesses. The movies are just REALLY pretty and the characters are so cuuuuuute.

When I set out to do this post I tried to find some of the other fairies besides Tinker Bell to feature, but I wanted to stick to the Disney Store’s site and they don’t seem to list toys or anything for anyone besides Tinker Bell. I’ll revisit this theme again though and feature some of the other characters, for sure. n_n

POP! Tinker Bell Tee

Aww cuute!!

This is in girls’ sizes unfortunately, but I can get away with buying kids’ clothes in the largest size and can fit into them. n_n;

The doodles and designs on this are SO CUTE. Look at that pudgy little Tink, d’aawww.

 

Disney Fairies Tinker Bell Doll

This is really pretty. oAo Look at those wings!

There’s nothing saying this doll is meant for display as opposed to being a toy, but honestly it’s so pretty that I would just have to display it on a shelf~

 

Disney Fairies Tinker Bell Wings

And if you’re in the mood to don some pretty, glittery fairy wings and go running around the neighborhood, you can do that, too!

 

Tinker Bell Figurine Fashion Play Set

Oh wow there are SOOOO many little accessories packed in there!! @_@

I’m counting five cute dresses in there, plus her little main green one. That’s a pretty nice variety.

I UM… I LIKE THE RUFFLY PINK DRESS THE BEST…

 

Personalized Tinker Bell Snowglobe

And I thought I’d wrap up this post with this gorgeous little thing!!

Look at that detailing. o^o The flowers are SOOO PRETTY.

 

Cute Craft Books

Friday, April 27th, 2012

Maybe you’ve noticed that I like sewing cute things with felt. I wouldn’t have gotten started with this craft if I never read about it first!

Here’s a collection of books that will more than get you started on your own cute, cuddly crafting. You’ll learn all of the techniques and equip yourself with more patterns than you can shake a needle at!

Big Little Felt Universe: Sew It, Stuff It, Squeeze It, Fun!This is a great introductory felt sewing book. There are more than 70 projects in here including food and toys, such as cakes with removable decorations!

The techniques are simple enough that beginners can pick up on them easily, but there’s so much packed in here that experienced crafters will find tons of inspiration as well.

My Favorite Felt SweetsThe book offers detailed, easy-to-follow directions, as well as life-sized patterns, for 106 different projects! o_o

Sheets of colored felt and basic sewing skills (and sometimes a little glue for the final, decorative touches) are all that are required to whip up these luscious-looking and guilt-free confections.

Yum!!

Warm Fuzzies: 30 Sweet Felted ProjectsFelting is a bit different from the typical sewing-with-felt that I’m into, but thanks to the difference in technique there is potential for creating new and different things!

This book encourages using old wool sweaters – a trip to the thrift store could supply you with everything you need. There is no knitting involved!

Aranzi Aronzo – Cuter BookThis wouldn’t be a proper cute sewing post if Aranzi Aronzo weren’t included here!

The Cuter Book is a follow-up to The Cute Book, and between the two of them are patterns for hundreds of unique cuddly characters. There’s a special flair to Aranzi Aronzo’s projects… there’s a simplicity to the characters’ designs, but SO MUCH FUN to them, too!

Super-Cute FeltAnd this is a great finisher to this post, thanks to the huge variety of simple projects it includes.

The categories in Super-Cute Felt include Accessories (think brooches and small purses!), Gifts (pincushions!), Homewares (coasters and tea cozies!), and Celebrations for holiday-themed cuteness.

This is all reminding me that I need to get back to work on my own instructional sewing book! o^o

Ninja Chicken Vs. Pirate Penguin

Guest art for a friend’s comic book series, Pirate Penguin VS. Ninja Chicken. These are the stars of the comic, Ninja Chicken and Pirate Penguin, who experience many nonsensical misadventures together.

The characters and their designs belong to Ray Friesen, who is a silly person. If you enjoy laughing, which most folks do, check out his site and read his comics.

It was oodles of fun drawing these characters. Their designs are completely unlike anything I could ever come up with on my own, so it was cool to experience drawing something from another artist’s imagination. The color palette and unique shapes of the characters (diggin’ Ninja Chicken’s swirly-spiky ‘do) are elements that I’d never think of incorporating into my own work, so making this was different and fun. c:
