neglectful I am

I have been neglecting this poor blog.

I have also been neglecting to take pictures of the things I'm working on

I completely neglected to mention I was in a Fairytales and Folklore swap that ended today, as both my partner and I both received.

Here's what I got:
Photobucket
Boob earrings! Not much to do with Fairies (though, who knows, there may be breast related fairytales out there) but I love them dearly. These had been in my wists for a very long time.

Photobucket
Very bad picture of a very lovely windchime.

Photobucket
Screenprinted on a t-shirt. Too damn cute.

A Nucklelavee, here's a story from my partner:

Here lies a Nucklelavee.
Before his untimely death, Dask was biting the
Nose of my rather unfortunate dog that came upon him
while playing in the ocean. I tried as I might to keep
Dask away, however before I could contain my dog
from anymore mischievous tricks he stepped on
Dask. I grabbed an empty salsa jar and placed Dask
inside. He will no longer intimidate
others with his malevolent ways.

Photobucket
Fairy Definition book, little book with lots of information! Contains definition for the previous little guy.

Photobucket
Postcards! So cute!

Photobucket
Lady Cottington's pressed fairies greeting cards! yay!

Photobucket
I love these. I haven't taken them off yet.

A fey offering bowl. I'm going to take it up to the Arboretum sometime soon. I need a nicer day (and to not be quite so sick!) so I can spend some time finding a suitable place for it.

I'll post what I sent soon. I want my partner to post her pictures first.

I didn't post at all in March?!?

Wow. Well, hopefully I'll have more time to devote to crafting and posting said craftings. I just found out about this:

Buy Nothing Challenge - April 2008

and I'm planning on doing it. Even though I bought shit on the 1st. It was for a good cause, though. But I am NOT going to buy anything other than food and necessities for the rest of the month. No frivolous spending! I am going to use what I have!

I don't honestly think I have that bad a problem with spending, but I have far too many things already. Too much yarn mostly, with not enough using of the yarn. So I also plan to knit more. LOTS more. I promise. I will hopefully have something to show off pretty soon.
