NEW BOOTS~~~ 
 |
And only $20.00 too! I put together an outfit for them today 
 |
Kind of crappy lighting in my new apartment 
Probably doesn’t help that it’s always so cloudy outside! I can’t wait for the weather to start reflecting the season.
So I’ve been doing some crafting again recently! With even more sculpting! These new pieces were heavily influenced by crafts I see for sale on mbok and such 
 |
 |
I’ll probably put them up for sale either later today or tomorrow. There aren’t so many because I wanted to put little details into each of them ♥
I almost forgot, I want to review a webshop I bought from recently! In addition to my usual MAC lashes, I’ve been looking for some cheaper lashes for days when I don’t feel like breaking out my #7’s. So I checked around and finally found out about Jcosme. At first I was a little scared to order from them since they don’t accept Paypal and I hadn’t really heard any reviews. But I decided to just go for it and order a bunch of the “Ethnic Beauty” style lashes. They also have “Gyaru Fashion” lashes that are cute and dramatic!
 |
So those are mine above 
I ordered way too many though so I might sell off a few pairs! I loved ordering from Jcosme though, and they even sent me a bunch of cute nail stickers with my lash order, it was so sweet and unexpected!
 |
Made another MAC order recently as well since I didn’t end up visiting their counter at Nordstrom when I was visiting home. And now that I’m back and taking summer courses (including yoga! but more about that later!) I won’t get the chance for awhile. I decided to order some eyeshadows in Woodwinked and Shroom and more #7 lashes. I seriously love #7’s 
 |
Okay this entry is getting long but I’ll update about progress on my Japan internship and more later! 
Has it really been two weeks since my last update 
I guess I’ve been busier than usual lately! That tends to happen towards the end of the year/semester. I’m sure that when the year ends I’ll be back to updating regularly 
The seminar for my possible internship in Japan is coming up fast! It’s on May first. I need to make sure I get all my documents in before then. Also need to get a new iPhone case as I lost my Rilakkuma one recently when I dropped my phone at a dance I’m thinking of replacing it since the Rilakkuma cases are now available on eBay, or I might get this cute Juicy Couture one~
 |
For now my iPhone doesn’t have a case, but considering that I could have lost the phone as well it makes me happy to at least still have my iPhone 
There’s currently a Beauty Insider 15% off your entire order sale going on at Sephora for anyone who didn’t already know about it! The promo code for it is MADNESS and it ends tomorrow. I was seriously considering some of the cute new tokidoki collab items Sephora has up for sale but decided not to buy.

I finally did a bit of crafting over the weekend and here are the results!
 |
I haven’t been feeling very creative lately but it was nice to do some work with clay after not having made anything for awhile. I have most of the rings above for sale as well as some Liz Lisa items and more at the link below 
Just checked Liz Lisa’s webshop and they have a cute new layout up! 
It’s also much easier to navigate now. I think it’s a definite improvement And all of the flowers on top are so lovely for spring!
 |
Sooo I finished the commission for custom mini hats today and I think they turned out cute. It was my first time attempting to make mini hats so I’m pretty happy with the result. I couldn’t find a heart shaped mini hat for the melty chocolate themed hat though so that was a little disappointing
 |
I don’t think I’ll be making any more mini hats though as they took so long to make 
Recently I’ve on the fence about these denim skirts from Liz Lisa. I really liked them when I first saw them, but I wasn’t sure if they were worth buying
 |
But I caved and bought the light blue version the other day 
I wasn’t going to, but after seeing the spring looks in stores here I thought that it would pair well with just about anything and make a lot of outfits more gal.
 |
I should be receiving my package from Celga this week, I’m so excited 
It has my Liz Lisa boots and a bunch of other things. Can’t wait! I’ll probably check its status way too often until it finally gets here
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! I hope everyone has a special day even if you’re single like myself haha~
Yesterday was spent making a trip to the store to pick up groceries so no excitement there, but I did pick up some frames for a couple crafts projects I’ve been wanting to work on for awhile.
Handmade Baby the Stars Shine Bright collages. I’ll be putting two up for sale tomorrow along with a handmade Alice and the Pirates collage. They can be hung on the wall or set standing upright on a table or desk. Some more handmade jewelry will also be put up for sale tomorrow – I’ll post the link here when the sales post is up!
I’ve been combing through a lot Liz Lisa and Tralala auctions lately, looking for cute spring pieces, and in the process I’ve found tons of items. I know it can take awhile to find anything good so would anyone like me to post links and pictures of some of the best auctions?
Also here are some of the newest looks from Liz Lisa’s spring collection – enjoy!
And last thing, there is a new Liz Lisa style background up!
Here is some of the second half of crafts I did over the weekend~
There is actually quite a bit more, but I haven’t made a sales post for them yet so I’ll update when I do!
This week I bought myself some tulips. Tulips are probably my favorite flower, and since I don’t have a special Valentine this year I took it upon myself.
The vase was about $2.00 and I tied the bow on myself so they were an inexpensive day brightener! I’d love to be able to have fresh flowers all the time buuut that’s not very probable.
I sent in my application to a different university today. I have a pretty good GPA so I don’t know why I wouldn’t get accepted, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed just in case! I would be pretty disappointed if I had to stay at my current university for two more years. The one I’m applying to is right in the city and I’m sure I would have a better time there. My current university is fine, and I do like the campus, but it’s way more small town than I expected and 2 hours away from anything.
I spent a lot of time crafting yesterday and here is some of what I made~
Some of the rings when worn.
I have some other items as well, but they aren’t completely finished yet so I’ll be putting them up for sale later. For now, the items shown above are for sale at the egl sales community! Click here to check them out, nothing is over $10.00! Whatever doesn’t sell there will be moved to the shop here at mirukuma.com. If you don’t have an LJ account but are interested in purchasing anything there please contact me.
I actually made this quite awhile ago, but I never posted about it on any of my websites so I wanted to share this today~
Made it for my sister’s birthday back in October. I still think it’s one of the best cards I’ve ever made! The card was painted with a mix of brown and white paint then decorated with lace, gold chain, flat back pearls, pearl strings and fabric roses.
I also added three new adoptables today. Please credit me or link back to mirukuma.com if you use any of them!
And please remember to keep voting for the final round of dollmaker entries!
My room doesn’t have much on the walls and I’m always looking for something to decorate with, but I haven’t been able to find anything that I like enough to put up. So when I saw this frame at TJ Maxx the other day I decided that it would be perfect for a collage! What do you think of it?
I had a lot of fun making it, and I have lots more images I would like to make collages with, so I’d like to make a few more and put them up for sale. I’m thinking of selling them for around $10-$15, does that seem reasonable?
I’m putting together an entry on MAC lashes and a small makeup tutorial so that will likely be up tomorrow. Also I’m reorganizing the shop so that it will only display instock items and use a Paypal shopping cart. A new addition to the shop will be Value Lots, which will include a picture of 2-4 already made items for around $10 shipped. They will sort of be like Lucky Packs, but you’ll be able to see what you’re getting and it will still be much cheaper than buying items individually. I’m also thinking of adding Bottle Pets to the shop. Does anyone remember those?
