well it is that time of year when i am gearing up for the christmas craft fairs. this year i am gonna shoot for 3!! i am feeling really good about it. the only thing is that i have to put aside personal projects in order to get things finished up on time but once everything is done i will start up on the things i have put on hold like, my cape, bike bags and who can forget christmas presents too! eep!
i have drawings sketched out and have a bunch of new
gold rush items almost complete too just need to finish up final drawings and put the finishing touches on some more things. i thought i would show you the first drawing i finished....he is a hedgehog requested by the cute and wonderful,
kelly kronic!
his name is mr. humprey. i am still working out his back story but i think he most likely went to boarding school where he learned how to fence but was never any good at it. he mostly liked to cuddle up with a good book and be sucked into the wonderful adventures to faraway lands where he could pretend to be brave....something like that :)
in other amazing news i found a suitcase!! i am super stoked. my landlord, who has the most amazing vintage taste, was throwing away a bunch of things and wednesday morning i found it in front of the garbage just waiting for me! it needs some love but i think it will work for my display. if all goes well i will be showing you next week! wish me luck!
xo,
cb

Aw, he looks like an awkward teenager that doesn't fit in, but is endearing because of that.

ReplyDeleteI die for hedgehogs! Instead of saying "I love you," my sister and I always say, "Hedgehog love!" It's our quirky way of letting one another know we care... and now we collect hedgehog items as sisterly bond thing. I love your hedgy! He is so sweet!
AWWWWWWWW He is so perfect!!! Yes!! You just put a huge smile on my face! I love him!!!
