2015 is go!

I finished off 2014 with two vaguely Christmassy events within two weeks of each other. Now, that sounds pretty good, but my recurring illness woke up between the two events. There was a little less stock than I wanted, but things seemed to go pretty well regardless. The best thing about the mad rush at the start of December, though, was the acquisition of a new commission! I absolutely adore doing commissions because, quite frankly, I quickly get bored with making the same things over and over. Okay, this one is just a resized version of my ever popular Toothy Grin mask, but it's still something new, in a way. I decided, with permission, to wait until after Christmas to start on this, and that accidentally shifted to 'after this year'. I have pressed on with it, however, and it'll be finished before the end of the day.

Then we have commission #2. January 1st, I got a message through Facebook about something which sounds pretty damn fun to make - A variation on something I have a little bit of experience in, something I've never even attempted before and another bit that is pretty much straight forward. More on that if and when it gets going!


Also, there's this on the go:

The plan for this year is to get back into LARP, both playing and making. This is the start of the making side. No real design for it, just seeing how it turns out! With any luck, I've got something good on my hands, here. We shall see.
