So Tig and I took the opportunity to go to Universal Studios with our friend Emily today.  It was a total blast.  It is now the end of the day and my brain is on total overload so I'm going to give you a photo dump today.

We started the day a little late because we had a 2 hour drive in.  Supper glad we did since we closed the park down.

 From left to right... Tig, me (Amy), and our wonderful friend Emily.   In front of the Hogwarts Express. 

The Night Bus.  Yes we spent most of the day in the Wizarding World.  Why do you ask.

Emily and Tig where playing around with the stuffed animals  in Magical Menagerie, the wizard working the store photo bombed us.  What a blast.

Tig was so good at getting her wand to work.

 We had a great day.   We finished the day at Cowfish a sushi/burger bar.

Hope you enjoyed our fun day. 

         

        

As some of you may know Tig and I am sending the month of July in Florida.  We are going to 4 diffrent shows and in our time off we will go to Disney and Universal Studios.    During the week we are staying with my folks witch is really nice since Mom is spoiling us like crazy.    Since it is the end of the first week I thought you might like to see some things Florida. 

Here is one of the lakes Tig and I pass on our daly walk.  We are trying to be helthy while donw here.

 This is a gopher tortoise.  He likes to eat Moms flowers,  but only the yellow ones.

These yellow flowers.   Mom is ok with it because every thing grows so fast down here, she says that he is helping keep the flowes trimed back.

Here is a close up of a palm tree that is about to flower.   Did not know that thwe did that.  It's nice to learn new things.

It's not all fun in the sun.  Tig and I still need to work.  Above are a few pictures of us working on hair stakes.

Hope this blog post is ok.  It's the first time I have tried writing on up on my phone.

The sight that greeted us as we were approaching Amy's parents's house.

This weekend we'll at Florida SuperCon in Miami at booth #2320!

We went for a walk today around the neighborhood where Amy's parents live and it was like being in a Disney movie. These sandhill cranes were totally NOT afraid of us!

Anyway, that's all for now! Next Saturday, July 9th we'll be in Jacksonville for Time Lord Fest! Hope to see some of you this weekend or the next!

         

        

Princess Bride Part 2

The big reason I have all the new Princess Bride inspired earrings is because I have redesigned my Princess Bride Inspired Funky Bracelet.  Check it out!  I think it turned out really great, if I do say so myself.

I also Made a third pair of earrings, because the priest just cracks me up.

Hope you like everything. 

The Princess Bride

According to google it is a fairy tale adventure about a beautiful young woman and her one true love.  But if you are like me it is so much more than that.  It is a movie about courage, facing amazing obstacles and overcoming them, never giving up, and making friends. 

But What really gets me with the movie are the amazing quotes.  As one of my friends said last week.  "Oh you like The Princess Bride do you?  Quote the whole movie."  And it's true I could almost have a conversations that was nothing, but Princess Bride quotes.  So in honer of my obsession.  I have added More amazing and Fun earrings inspired by my favorite movie.

...

...And the only thing Westley ever said was "As You Wish"  Really If there was a guy that was that hot in my life and the only thing he ever said to me was "As You Wish" I would not be wasting my commands on something as silly as getting a pitcher down for me.  Oh Buttercup you silly girl.

A quote that I use on a weekly basis. 

Hope You are just as amused my these earrings as I am.

They are Finally Here Hair Stakes!

I'm starting out with these Fancy Pants hand-painted lightsabers.  Each one is different so you will get 2 of what is on hand currently I only have them in blue, but that will change when I have the time.

Sorry this post is so short I'm getting ready to be in FL for a month.  With no access to my studio for that length of time I'm scrambling to have all my ducks in a row.

Hey there gang! Sorry this is kind of a late blog entry, but I was busy setting up at HeroesCon today and my brain has borderline become pudding. You can find me in the Artist Alley this weekend at table #2101! Make sure you come by and check out the amazing new hair stakes and other goodies I'll have! Here, have a map so you'll know where to find me:

But wait, there's MORE!

We know a lot of you LOVE our ideas and what we do and are all ways giving us great suggestions and wanting us to do all the crazy ideas that we keep talking about. But we never have the time! Or more specifically, Amy doesn't have the time. Between making our own product and doing 3 or more shows a MONTH, new ideas and products often get pushed to the back burner. The solution? Patreon!

Patreon is a great website, inspired by crowdfunding, but allowing for more consistent and regular support for those creative types where a Kickstarter or Indiegogo campaign just doesn't quite fit their needs. Patreon allows you to support an artist on a monthly basis instead of in just one go. Regular support like this means your favorite artist has more time to do the things that they've pushed to the back burner because they still have support coming in. Supporting us monthly means that Amy can start scaling back her weekly work load and, with enough support, begin scaling back the number of shows that she has to go to.

We have set up some fantastic rewards over on Patreon for monthly supporters, including supporting us for as low as a dollar a month. What does that dollar get you? Well, as you know, we have a LIST of funky bracelet theme ideas that we have sitting around in the works. Supporting us at a dollar or more a month means that you get to vote on what bracelet theme you'd like to see us do next AND you get to submit your ideas for what you'd like to see us do next! Think we should do a pink power ranger bracelet? Support us and you'll get to put your idea on our list and then vote! Rewards go all the way up to include a monthly jewelry box subscription as well as the ability to become an OFFICIAL AWESOME CARD carrier. Go on over there now and check it out!

That's all for now guys, hope to see you this weekend and please, consider supporting us on Patreon!

Hey there! Sorry about missing last week, things got a bit busy as we ended up with another double show weekend and I was helping out at ConCarolinas as a guest speaker and volunteering where it was needed. And that was my vacation con....I swear I'm not a workaholic.

Anyway, we had a blast at MegaCon and we were super excited about all the cosplays that we saw! Here's a few of our favorites from the weekend:

As you can see, it's definitely a con that we're looking forward to being back at next year! We'll also be at MegaCon Tampa Bay this October!

In the mean time, you can find us at HeroesCon in Charlotte, NC next weekend. Also next Thursday with me I have a SUPER awesome announcement to make!

I'll see you guys next week!
