This is the package that I sent ecstasia.  I figured since she hasn't posted pictures I could just share mine for her 

Here is the wearable.  My take on the "always" shirt


I made the accessory a deathly hallows copper wire necklace.  First time working with it and it gives me a new respect for people who are masters at that sort of thing!


And my edible was butterbeer caramels.  There was also ton tongue toffee that was supposed to be sent but something went horribly awry with the batch so it had to be scrapped...


And of course there were some extras

This is a lumos/nox lightswitch cover straight from her wist. Both the words lumos and nox glow in the dark but I didn't get a picture of that.


and finally a Marauders map mug.

I hope she enjoyed everything!

Look what just came! My package from ecstasia!!

Let me first say...I LOVE IT! Thank you so much!

Here is a group shot of what I got


The wearables


boy was I spoiled!! I love the stag patronus necklace and doe patronus earrings!  The lightning bolt was made out of polymer clay and it was her first time working with it...I would not have been able to tell by how it looked! She did a great job!

A close up of the snitch earrings. I'm wearing these now!


Nosebleed Nougats

I wish you could smell the wonderful smell that came out of these when I open them! They are delicious!!

The Snackbox


and the inside!

I can't wait to sneak all my candy into the theater!  

And last but certainly not least...A Harry Potter cookbook!


I can't wait to try out this recipe!


Thank you so much! I love it all!!
 

  It's on the way to its new home with ecstasia!

PNCTink was even nice enough to include an extra for my kitty.  Milton thanks you!


Thank you so much!! I love all my goodies!!  You were such a great swap partner and
did a great job on your first swap!

Well I was at Wal-Mart and somehow wandered over to the shoe department and they were getting rid of their older style "van-alikes" for $5!!! I couldn't pass up that bargain and I bought a pair for me and my sister with the intentions of painting them but with what we hadn't decided.  This is what we came up with.

For those of you that know who Motion City Soundtrack is (and those who don't  ) here are my sisters shoes and the first shoes I attempted to paint...



and these are mine. I have a bit of a Sailor Jerry obsession so a perfect fit



they don't look the best in this picture and I should have taken the pictures BEFORE we had both been wearing them for a while but I always forget!

Thanks for looking!
C&C appreciated

Here are my goodies from Xandrigirly

A cute hat

A tin with DOWN AND OUT LYRICS!! I love The Academy Is...




Foam Stamps and Ink Pad



CUTE polymer clay robot



Tie Bracelets


Turtle Necklace


Tinkerbell Bouncy Balls (cause I love Disney!)


Pendants






Bottle Cap Necklace/Earrings


Wire Crocheted bookmarks


And finally a couple of these cute cards.


     Thank you so much Xandria for the wonderful things...can't wait for you to get mine!

So this is my first reconstruction.  
I am a long time lurker on craftster and I had seen posts where people had forgotten to take before shots and I was like...how can you forget to take before shots?!?!

Well...let me tell you it's easy! I actually forgot to take a picture at all before I gave the girl her shirt lol

Luckily I have action shots though
----------------------------------
On to the story...My best friends sister was going to her first Jonas Brothers concert.  I asked her if she wanted me to make her a shirt...I planned to just puffy paint her one but I got on a roll with scissors and a sewing machine  

Anyway I started with an XL Mens shirt



and  a bolt of pink gingham fabric

started cutting and sewing and added two super cute extra large buttons and some spray paint (dont diss unless you try it!) and VOILA! A cute tank top.  





She had a meet and greet with honor society and they all commented on it : )
What do you think?
