So my mom came up to me last night at like...ten and said "Make something with this by tomorrow"


o.O


this is what I made with a Altoid gum box and some clay and paint





the camera for some reason wont take a good picture..but I'll keep trying

any ideas on what i could do with those?

my boyfriend and i...being the geeks that we are..decided to take apart some old school computer keyboards with the hopes of creating something like this...

we made ours using the tutorial zieak put on instructables

here they are!!! (with the boy modeling nicely)

This is my boyfriend's...with a picture of me ^^



This is an empty version of mine




and a full version of mine




tell me what you think, and kudos to zieak

So I went to Anime Boston over the summer.

I decided to go as a female (SNJ for all you Naruto fans) Kakashi...


So here's my costuuuume!

Pardon the hand...but that is my earring i made with some bells (if you read the manga you should know)



I made book covers out of orange paper and colored the covers of Kakashi's favorite books on them. I covered MY favorite mangas with them, so they were fully functional whee!!



The gloves were batters gloves that i think i bought at target. my mom works for a company that makes plastics and she brought me home a sample of silver sheet plastic. it was shiny on one side so i used that for the plates oh his fingerless gloves (hot glue)

Also...the shoes i made by hand out of old flip flops and some cloth. they held up very well for those three days, but they did begin to split at the seams towards the end.

The leg wrappings were just medical gauze, and the kunai leg pouch was a toy set that i bought at target..it came with a ninja a$$ pouch also..with kunai and shuriken!



Finally a picture of me reading in the elevator that my friend took...my friends faces are blurred out just for privacy reasons




(I'm not sure if this goes here...but i figured, its clothes, it isn't for halloween, and its completed...)

Tell me what you think!!
thanks!




--EDIT--

okay i forgot to mention...the pants are from a consignment store i went to. the shirt i sewed myself. the armbands i also sewed myself. there are red and black swirls on the back of my shirt and on the armbands that i made from thick red cloth and black rope (for the shirt one) and red cloth and black marker (for the smaller armband ones) the headband is bought there at the convention

This is my first post, and I wasn't sure if this was post worthy, but I hope it is...

So for Christmas, I wanted to do something really special for my boyfriend...somethi ng homemade and something that would show all the best times we've had. He had been saying that he wanted a new pair of converse..so I made him some

^^

the shoes, just bought...they are still virgin shoes.



we all (my group of friends and I) have a thing for ninjas...and sarku japan is his favorite food court restaurant.




At friendly's he always gets mint chocolate chip sundaes.



i tried to paint his fender strat guitar...it came out alright i suppose



One of the first times we ever hung out, we toasted marshmallows over a little hibachi grill



His favorite soda is mountain dew...so i did the dew.



Finally...on the toes of the shoes i painted my eye and his eye.

Mine



His




and one last picture for laughs...

this is my shoe inside of his shoe...




I'm a little upset that i don't have pictures of the finished product...next time he comes over, i'll get some photos.



(sorry the pictures are bad, i did all this in college and didn't have my camera.)
