The fortnightly thingy and Barbie luxury.

Hi kids, I’m back with a finished Barbie rug! I just need to type up some pattern instructions and work out the sizes if someone chooses to scale it differently by switching Aida, and then I can pop the pattern up on Etsy.

Also, want to see the tiny pointe shoes? I need to get back in with an Xacto or something and just trim the soles a teeny bit more, and I can’t decide how much blood to put inside and how fresh or dry it should be, but they are largely made.

I know not everyone adjusts their pointe shoes the same ways, but I grew up putting moleskin on the tips so that we could get traction with plain water instead of rosin, since the same floors needed to be used for a lot of barefoot dancing. So, tiny moleskin tips it is.

Places to buy stuff!

• The Gamecrafter: your home for the new and slightly improved Neurotic Owl Tarot. AND Neurotic Owl’s Faerytale Tarot! https://tgc.link/Faerytaletarot
• TEEPUBLIC: mostly t-shirts, a few other products.  Watch for sales, when shirts drop from $20 to $14!
• REDBUBBLE: Just, I don’t know, a ton of different stuff.  T-shirts are more expensive than Teepublic, but there are a lot more options.
• AMAZON: Home of the Geeky Gals Coloring Book!  Daydreams and Whimsies!  AND NOW, The Neurotic Owl Compendium!
• https://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/naralesser
• ETSY: paper dolls, a knitting bag pattern, and a bunch of vintage dolls of various sorts from my collection. I just added more Sculpey buttons so go take a look! Aaaaand I’ve finally made a listing for pet portraits!

Did I miss something?  I think that’s everything.

What’s making me happy this week:

I am very tired, but it was a good weekend including a hangout with a friend I don’t see often enough wandering through the galleries at Sawyer Yards.
