SPAM PARTY

[lucathia]

If any of you remember, one of my holiday wishes is a spam party. ♥ So...

SPAM AWAY!!

Anything goes~! Something you'd like to tell me or think I should know? Recs for series you're following? Flailing over stuff together? Cheers for the holidays? Or just random spam??? :3

Also, holiday cards have been sent out, so any of you who left me your address should be receiving them soon, if you haven't yet already. And thank you tokki_chan for the cute Hikaru keychain!! I received your card Saturday-ish but hadn't had a chance to say my thanks.

:O ooo I ... don't know. ^^; I've never had a blond wig before (though I'll have to get one for KKM should it go through)~ his hair is pretty bright yellow. Maybe something through cosworxs? :3

Yellow might be too bright? =x But I guess I would fit in more with Amu with a wig that's more yellow than blond since Amu's hair is pretty bright pink. XD; The Wisp wig from Cosworx looks good.

Yellow is kind of bright, isn't it? D: And blond is a little dull...decisions!!

Never mind, I'm getting a yellow/white blend. XD;; Hopefully it'll turn out all right. Not quite sure how the yellow/white part is distributed, but if it's in chunks, I'm going to color the white parts with a different sharpie to balance it out. Ah, me and wigs and sharpies. XD;; I've done it to two wigs so far. This Wisp from cosworx was on sale, so I think it was worth it for the price. :3

:D So C.c.'s gonna try to buy and dye the fabric next week and get it to you asap. The patterns we're using are:

Butterick B5221 (c pattern, need to shorten the length) -- shorts
Butterick B4419 (c pattern, with modified collar) -- cape

:3 Sometimes Joann's has $1 sales on patterns, or we can try to get the patterns for you if you're having trouble. I'm going to see if I can meet up with c.c. before she mails everything and cut out the modified collar, so you have the same shape that we do. Also, you have to extend the front corner edges of the cape, so that you can iron them back (to create the tiny little lapel flap thing).

For the fabric paint: The paint can be bought at a Blick's art store. The paint is pebeo Setacolor fabric paint http://www.dickblick.com/products/pebeo-setacolor/ ^^; C.c. forgot the color name but she has to go buy more - she can buy the paint for you too if that's easier.

I can't wait. :) But I'll be pretty busy, so feel free to take however long's needed! I finally caught up with the latest episodes of Shugo Chara Doki over my last days of vacation and read all the scanlated manga too. XD; *wants more Nagihiko*

I'll try to get the pattern and the fabric paint myself...have to see if there are any Blick's art store around first. Let me know what the color is when you know it~

Just to let you know ~ C.c. bought the fabric :D so hopefully we'll be able to get it to you asap. ^__^; It may be a little bit longer though cause it still has to get dyed, and we have some other things to get too.

[lucathia]

I heard from her! You were the one who did the collars, yeah? I hope you can walk me through that when I get to that part.
