Never Wait, Don't Procrastinate

Have you ever worked passionately on a project, filled with excitement, and then decided to wait to for the finishing touches or to introduce it to the world? 
It sits there for a few months, or years, just waiting.
....
And when you're finally ready to show the world your work you look around and see it everywhere. You just think to yourself "I already thought of that, I made it 7 months ago! No one was making it then. Why did I wait?"
Then you shove it back into the box and just say forget about it.

I know I can't be the only one that's happened to, right?

First Thursday June Lolita Meet

Hey! Sorry my blog has been stagnant and that it has been forever since I've posted anything. I hope everyone is doing well!~ ♥
I would like to share two photos from a lolita meetup from a few months ago (June, to be precise).

For our meet we went to what is called First Thursday, which is a monthly event that takes place along South Congress in which there are booths with art, jewelry, and such, and the stores in the area stay open later than usual. There is also usually some live music inside some shops and at the coffee house.

We walked around checking out booths and got refreshments/food from the trailer food park (a parking lot filled with food trucks).

These photos were taken by my friend Tyler. (you can follow the link to his flickr to see more photos)
This photo of us being goofy is my favorite from the day.

P.S.- I went to another meetup last weekend and will be posting photos once I have decided which ones I want to share in the blog post.

Craft Post- Sweet Lolita Brooches

 School and work are keeping me extremely busy, so I haven't been able to update recently.
Here is a photo I took the other day of my handmade sweet lolita brooches. They are all handmade from polymer clay.

Some of them I've posted before, so you may have seen them before. But, there are a couple new ones. The umbrella is the most recent.
