Crochet Sea Creatures

I found these at this website and I though they were cool.

You can buy them, or probably try and make you're own

Toothbrush Bracelets

I'm sure these aren't anything new and interesting, but I haven't seen them before: Toothbrush Bracelets.

Interesting recycling idea...

The books were fantastic, The Hunger Games being the best, obviously. I doubt the movie will be good compared to the book, but I'm still seeing it on March 23rd when it premires.

Also, my Mockingjay necklace came in the mail yesterday!

All Stars Recap

I'm finally caught up on Project Runway!

I absolutely loved Rami's street look (left). Sweet P's opera dress (middle) was... well... not suitable for the opera or anything else. I liked April's Ms. Piggy sketch (right), but when she actually made it, I just didn't feel it. It wasn't very Miss Piggy anyways.

Kara's opera dress (right) had the same problem Sweet P's did... and though I like the idea of her broadway design (left), it wasn't exicuted well.

I adore Austin! His opera dress (right) was fantastic and the outfit for Godspell (left) is just gorgeous. I would love to wear the street clothes punk outfit (middle) too!

I thought Mondo's Jamaica dress (far right) was great, and incorporating the colors in the back (second from right) was very interesting. I loved the jacket of his street out fit (middle) was great, but I didn't love the shorts. The dress for the broadway challenge (second from left) is beautiful and reminds me of the beach. Wasn't it supposed to be separates though...?

Michael's opera dress (right) is fantastic! I love the collar- elegant yet edgy. His broadway outfit was very creative, using the hair piece and shoe straps (you cant really see them in this picture...) to tie it all together.

I don't really like Kenely... there's just something about her personality... And the fact that she makes almost the exact same dress every time. I did like the pop of her passion fruit dress though (top row, second from left). And her Chile dress (far right, bottom) was creative. Her Godspell outfit (secound from left, bottom) was absolutely dreadful though.

I really like Mila's clothing, even if her color palet is rather bland. I loved the modern style of her Miss Piggy dress (far right) though it isn't Piggy's style. Her autumn sportswear outfit (far left) was fantastic in my opinion. And I really liked her Papua New Guinea dress (middle). I thought it was creative, different, and very well made. What's wrong with the judges?

I adored Anthony! "Hi, Hot White Guy!" It was sad to see him go. He was only sent home because his street look (left) didn't meet the challenge requirements- using 50% of the fabric you got from people. It was about 40/60 though. His Miss Piggy look (right) was my favorite of his- I want to own it!

I also love Jerell. His clothes are usually fantastic. His street look (right) was a little... crazy... and his India dress (second from left) would have been way better if he hadn't added the green. I absolutely loved his frist dress (left), Fruit of the Forest gelato dress (middle) and winter sportswear (second from right). His sports wear was much better than Michael's.

Project Runway All Stars; Gelato Inspired Outfits

I haven't been keeping up with Project Runway All Stars very well... better late than never!

I suppose I understand what Kara was thinking of with her Cupcake dress, but it wasn't well executed.

April's Blueberry dress looked like a halloween costume and was not well made; the hem was uneven and the cut of the top was ugly. The outfit Rami made was cute, but looked scrappy, will all the different pieces of fabric.

I loved Mondo's Cantaloupe! It was cute, and literal in a good way. I also liked Michael's Grapefuit, but it was a little to bland for me.

Austin's dress was ok, I just didn't really fancy it.

I thought Mila's dress was great! It flowed nicely, the way she layered the colors was nice; very original.

The Passion Fruit was nice, but the same as Kenley always does, just different colors.

I loved Jerell's Fruit of the Forest dress. It really felt foresty, and I think his idea of the straps of fabric around the neck and shoulder area was very creative. And the bottom just flowed so beautifully!
