For Tora-Con, I have been making Steampunk and Lolita accessories. I have some mini top hats, some extra-mini top hats, a black/white/pink lolita bead crown, wrist cuffs, and a couple bows so far. And some buttons and stationery. I have 3 weeks to make more.

I am also having a lolita dress made for me by my friend Aliza, for the price of her booth fee, and she'll be helping me make a victorian outfit, too. Doubtful it will be in time for Voltaire, but I'm hoping she can at least guide me through when I finally get the pieces together (I have about half the pieces for the jacket, but may want to make a matching skirt).

I also plan to get some prints together, but I'm not sure which pieces to print as I've been terribly unsatisfied with my old work and don't think I have time for much new work, but we'll see. I do think I'll unearth my old manga sketches. They'll sell. It IS an anime convention, after all.

Lots of creating, lots of craft nights. I'm having a good time :)
And whatever doesn't sell will go up on my etsy shop.

Photos? Wanna see :)

Photos very soon, I hope. But my camera is acting all weird. I might have to replace it (which is going to suck, because I just bought a new bike and my money is depleting fast- but I guess if I can find a good sale...).
