I've had the idea for Hogwarts house bunting bouncing around in my head since I finished the Three Broomsticks, and not long ago I did the maths to figure out just how many flags I'd have to make. It's 100, 25 for each house. 12 down, 88 to go! I also started on the front… Continue reading Project Roundup
Finished Space Painting
As you've probably guessed, I finished the space painting! Above is a progress shot taken just after finishing the USS Enterprise, a close-up of which is below. Here's the finished painting, with from left to right, the Millennium Falcon (Star Wars), the Rampion (The Lunar Chronicles), the TARDIS (Doctor Who) and the USS Enterprise (Star… Continue reading Finished Space Painting
Painting Space
I acquired these two canvases around Christmas time, for a painting I wanted to do for my room. In this painting, I wanted to have galaxies, stars, and several of my favourite spaceships. Both canvases are 20 x 24 inches, and I put them together to double the space I had for the painting. Here,… Continue reading Painting Space
S.P.E.W.
Happy New Year everyone! I hope it's going well for you so far, or at least better than the Society for the Promotion of Elfish Welfare did. The Society is from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Hermione creates it in protest of house-elf slavery, but it's not a success. I don't think she's the… Continue reading S.P.E.W.
2017 In Review

Starting with January: February: March: April: May: June: July: August: September: October: November: December: Looking at the pictures I chose, I seemed… Continue reading 2017 In Review
Christmas Books
Over Christmas, I was lucky enough to receive a number of wonderful gifts (thank you!), some of which included these books. I remember reading the Infernal Devices after I'd read the Mortal Instruments, and liking these three more than the original six. Also, these covers are gorgeous. This series is called Princess Academy, and is… Continue reading Christmas Books
13th Doctor Outfit
Sarah's gift for Christmas this year was a 13th Doctor cosplay, according to the official image released by the BBC. She loves it. You can see the enormous pockets as well as the black hem at the bottom here. I painted the coat fabric with acrylics to get the right colour, as it's a bit… Continue reading 13th Doctor Outfit

Sarah’s Stocking
I made Sarah a stocking not long ago, with felt, sequins, and a little bit of ribbon. It's hollow, so you could put a very small gift inside. I believe this is where stockings normally reside, over the fireplace? *checks Google Images* Yeah, I think so. 😀 In other news, Sarah's gift this year is… Continue reading Sarah’s Stocking
