Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays! <3

Hello everyone! I just wanted to do a quick post and tell everyone Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays! I hope everyone is doing well during this wonderful time of the year. :D! Please be safe if your traveling and God bless. :)

Also, I would like to thank all my Etsy customers! You made my December. :) I would like to thank all my supporters as well! I couldn't do this without fans, so thank you. :)

Hello December!

Hello guys! Wow, I can't believe it is Decemeber already! Well for starters~ my 21st birthday was November 17th. I had a lovely birthday so don't worry. Nekocon 12 went VERY well! It was nice to meet so many people who were excited about my stuff. Many thanks goes out to those who purchased things from my booth!

Since it's Decemeber...that means Christmas is around the corner! Yay! I made two new designs for Christmas cards for my Etsy shop.

Did anyone go out on Black Friday? I did! Got myself a PS3 bundle! Little Big Planet is super awesome. <3

Also, I'm considering doing my first giveaway since I have never done one. Not sure what to give away as prizes though, probably a choice of any 6 pack of cards, choice of any 4x6 print, and any charm from my shop. What do you guys think? :D

Hope everyone had a awesome Thanksgiving and Christmas is just around the corner!

Animation and Busy Busy!

Hey everyone! College started again on Monday for me. I'm a junior this year! :D For those who have never read my blog, I'm majoring in Animation! It is so much fun because I get to bring my drawings to life. I'm not sure where it is going to take me yet, but I am having fun studying it. Do you have a favorite animation or animator? For me, my favorite would have to be Hayao Miyazaki. His work is so amazing and he does things with 2D animation that many could never even begin to do. There is so much life in his work and he includes all the little quirky things humans do (such as tying their shoes when it comes untied.) So many people skip over little details like that or think they are no important...that they lose the human quality to them. Miyazki is amazing...and if you have never heard of him I suggest Googling him STAT! :0

If you have a favorite animation though, I would love to hear about it! :D

I did list four new things in my shop last week! Here is one of them, Happy Bread Studs!

I'm going to be very busy now that school started again. I'm also still preping for Nekocon as well and for the holidays. Anyone have any tips for preping for the holidays? This will be my shop's first Christmas so I'm curious to see how it will do!

I hope you like the new studs I added! I just bought some more jewelry findings...so be on the look out for new jewelry! :D I'm also trying out a new blog feature which you can see at the bottom of all my post now, called Reactions. Basically, it's like Youtube's rating system; you tell me how you like the content of the post! This will also be nice for those who don't have time to write a formal comment, but can still leave feedback by leaving their "Reaction." I guess we'll see how it works out. :)

I'm back and Give away from Steppie!

Hello everyone! It's been a while since I have posted, but this month has been pretty crazy. I went out of town the Friday the 7th to Pennsylvania to visit my boyfriend's grandparents and family. I came back Tuesday the 11th. I was home for one day...Wednesday and then Thursday I left again for Nags Head, North Carolina. Vacation was fun, but now it's time to get back to work! College starts next Monday for me (I'm a Junior yay!) and I got all my books today, just doing final preparations now. I'm very interested to see how all this will work out.

I started Panduhmonium in February, not too long after the second semester of my sophomore. I didn't make a lot of sales then nor was I really making a lot of stuff...so I'm curious as how this will all work out this year. I have a lot more on my plate...taking 15 credit hours! I'm super excited for school, but also super excited to be selling at Nekocon and making items for Christmas (first Panduhmonium Christmas 8D)! So far I have sold 19 items on Etsy, which might not be a lot to some but it means the world to me (I've also done some commissions not through Etsy as well)! I'm so happy that people are interested in what I do and like it enough to buy. I put a lot of work into everything I make so I'm glad to see my work is paying off. :)

Also! Just wanted to let people know I have quite a few things to list! I'm going to list my first batch of earring studs and I also have ring blanks now to make cute little rings! <3 Stayed tuned! I will do a blog post after I list the items on Etsy as well as Twitter the newly listed items. :)

And finally~ the Give Away! I haven't had a chance to do any kind of features so here is my chance! Steppie, who runs Design's by Steppie is having a Facebook give away! All you have to do is have a Facebook account or create one and become a fan of her Facebook fanpage, Design's By Steppie. You can go HERE to view the video she made which shows all the prizes you could win and gives you all the info about participating!

The contest ends TONIGHT! At 11:59pm (Pacific time I assume since Steppie resides in California).

Thanks for reading everyone and I hope you all are having a great day!
