Silk Screened Christmas Lights


Guess what super cool Claudia did today? She happened to silk screen. For those of ya'll who don't know what it is you put a design on this fabric type stuff and put it in a frame then paint all the parts you don't want inked with screen filler then you squeedgee it onto the canvas/shirt. Because that was so informative RIGHT?!?! I am now addicted to silk-screening and the top thing on my Christmas list is silk-screening stuff. I better get it... Oddly I'm not really in the Christmas mood, I guess I just have to completely deck out my room in fantastically tacky Christmas lights. Like is

Except more than this. And executed with more class (as much class as can be mustered from tacky lights). Lights are what I love about Christmas. The songs though.... I shudder just thinking about them.

PS. Happy [late] (C)Hannukah

"it's ugly, i like it" -tavi gevinson


finally got an invite code for lookbook! the first pic of my outfit is the one i used... i have zero hype :D i'm so proud!..... if finished my cape, hence the cape, in the pictures. the first few pictures are of my sewing class, i want the sewing machine, it's like a janome model m100 or something... i don't know. the girl in the picture was making a one strap dress, i think shes done, it's really pretty. philadelphia fashion week invited people from this sewing company thing (the one i took lessons with) to show off what they made on one of the days. i'm not sure exactly which one yet but i'm quite excited! i hope i get noticed? is that what i'm supposed to say? anyway its the firsts day of spring and i missed free rita's water ice day! ONLY THREE MONTHS OF SCHOOL LEFT! hallelujah!

ps. i spelled that right on my first try!
pss. mimi is over right now and took the pictures of me :) kudos

we were meant to live for so much more





hey. yesterday i went to my class and now i'm almost done my cape, i forgot to take pictures though. i found a bunch of keys and i'm going to make jewelry out of them, they are all like 15 years old, which is pretty cool. my teen vogue arrived and i was so disappointed to see miley cyrus on the cover AGAIN, she was in the may 2009 issue as well, she looked much better that time. my sister has a bunch of zippers so i took some and i made a shirt, i'm probably gonna wear it tomorrow so you can see it then. today i went to my friends house to help him out with an art thing for his family friends brother, who is paralyzed :(. i made a logo for it. my dad gave me this cool old leather bag and i found all my moms old guitar music in it. my room is a mess from craft work today, i'm way to lazy to clean it up though.
