More like a Yard Fail!

So Much for the Yard Sale, my Stuff is more like "Please Sell me on Ebay" or a Forum.

In total I made 29$...not 30...29$!
Thats not gonna do ANYTHING for me haha!

I decided to Just Post Things on Facebook and Hair Extension Forum to see what will sell.

As For the Cosplay Sweatshop, It turned into what I hoped it wouldnt, a Party.
Fortunately for Me, I got my Gi for Haku started. And Cut up a Gi for Sakura.

Its the Final Countdown, Otakon is only 5 Days Away and Im not 100% Done Any costumes.
Pray for me? Haha!

My Random Update of the day!

He's so Talented!

Tata For Now! ^_^

The Yard Sale...and Ebay Blows

The time has Come for yet again Another Yard Sale...

This time its to supplement my lack of Funds for Otakon.

To Help myself Ive put almost half if not more of my entire wardrobe into the Sale. Including Tons of Band Tee's, Sweaters, Cute Blouses, Etc.

Along with that...Ive been collecting Carebears since Middle school and my Collections pretty Intense but the Time has come for me to part with all my Babies!

Cue the Tears and Anxiety!

:D

This is Me Downsizing my Life.
Its been in the Works for a While and Ive finally Broken!

Lets Hope I make a Pretty Penny! ^_^

In Other News: Ebay is Blowing my Life!

It Seems Many Sellers are Incompetitent to their own products and shipping prices.
I inquired as to the price for express shipping and if its additional on top of the original shipping, because with Otakon coming Im on a Tight Deadline, I needed it By Next friday, earlier if possible!
Last ime I checked there is a Big difference Between 20$ and 40$.
They responded that express shipping total 20$ so I was excited but COMPLETELY blown when the Invoice popped up saying $40.99!!!

Thank the Lord for Patience and Understanding that helped me get through the day!
Now I have 2 wigs on their way from Michigan and one from China.
An Exra $20 I didnt want to spend if I didnt have to!

On a Positive Note:
Thats one less Wig I have to Purchase for Future Cosplays! :D

Muah Happy Friday!

Nadia Progress

So I Guess Ill Start of With Nadia Progress Since Its Almost Complete!



Blue Water
is the Name of Her Necklace that I was afraid I would ruin if I tried to make it myself.
Online there are several Versions of it some more expensive than others and many more costly than others.
I got it commissioned by DeaStar and Im very Happy with it!
Its slightly larger than most of the ones Ive seen but I think itll show up Better in Pictures and adds a lot more Emphasis! :)

*Ignore the Silliness, I looked bad that day!*



Main Costume
I Finished the Skirt, and the Sash, and the Vest is Done but Im thinking about Remaking it.
There are a Few Flaws that are making me self Conscious!
Btw in the Picture the vest is only pinned together. Impressed? I am!

I Took a Little Creative Deviation when it came to her Shoes!
I Didnt like the Look of her Closed in Moccasin type shoes so I grabbed a Pair of Montego Bay Gladiators and added those instead! To Me it seems to suit Not only the Weather, but Her Style.

Wig
The Wig still needs help. I ordered a Shoulder Length Black Wig it has the bangs and everything.
I have to cut and Find a Way to Curl or Spike the Ends in a Manner similar to Nadia's but realistically!
That Will Be Taken Care of Sometime Soon! :)

Whats Left?
The Hair Clips just need to be glued to their backings. I made them Out of Sculpey and Acyrlic paint Yay!! :)
The Gold Earrings I got from my mom! Thanks Mama!! :D
I deviated from her plain Gold Bangles and went for intricately designed bangles That I found at Forever21 for about 6$ or 7$ a set.
As for her Neckbangles Im planning on covering some headbands in gold paint or material just so save time and money. And wearing them stacked on each other.
And Her Arm band I can do without but if I stumble onto a gold slap bracelet or armband similar to that I will definetly snag it up!! :D

I Keep Getting Distracted!

Like the Title Says I post every so Often and Ive become Very Distracted!! :)
My Last Post was My Attempt at Ganguro/Yamanba Makeup--Fail.

Well its The Final Countdown!
Otakon is in T-Minus 9 days!--And Im Still Not Ready!

My Costume List is as follows:
Nadia- Secret of Blue Water (80% Finished)
Sakura- Super Street Fighter 4 Alternate (70% Finished)
Flareon- Pokemon Humanoid (10% Finished)
*Newest Addition* Haku -Naruto (20% Finished)

So Pretty Much Im Cutting it Close...

Not to Mention my Haku wig Has Yet to be Shipped From China! ^_^
