Things That Make Me Happy #2: Christmas Spirit

What a busy week hmm month(?)... I was more busy doing Christmas related activities at work rather than my actual tasks now I have a buttload ton of tasks to do. It's so stressful I almost forgot about my Happy blog series. Too much negativity around me. Good thing I remembered about my little goal of making a weekly list of things that make me happy. I really need a good dose of positivity right now. I choose to be happy! ^__^

Merry Christmas~! (260th post)

Merry Christmas to all ^_^

I finally finished my SAI drawing today... I really hate the hair.. I don't understand why I can't draw a good hairstyle on her... but I got the technique of drawing the hair.. At least...

Still not perfect.. but I think I'm improving... I still suck at mixing colors...

Christmas Gift Plans~

It's almost Christmas and since I promised my boyfriend that I won't spend too much on gifts, "we" decided to make the gifts instead... I still don't know how many people I'll be giving gifts to, but I think I'll have fun and making a lot will serve as "practice" for me ^_^

Here are some ideas I saw from great people~!

1. "Little Christmas Lamb" ornament

2 . Polymer Clay - Strawberry Necklace - DIY Craft Project Instructions

 










3. Aaron Vail's Blog!: Mario Mushroom Christmas Tree Ornaments

4. Stacy Sews | Diary of a Fabric Junkie

5. Christmas Cakes

 Other ideas:

1. xmas cupcakes with a poinsettia leaf... (slightly corny but easy to make)
2.Gift boxes...
3. Peppermint candies.. I could probably just make a cane for mass production!
4. Random cup cakes in xmas-y miniature gift boxes?

I need more ideas... As much as possible I'd like to avoid using white because I'm still messy~ hihihi

I'll probably make figurines or just hand made cellphone charms or... magnets?

I'm not sure if my guy friends would appreciate these though... :(
