The Journey: Entry #17

I called Dever doll today and found out that Helios isn't in yet. Le sigh... so that means I'll be waiting a little longer than 4 months, I just hope he come in before that convention me and my friend want to go to!

The Journey: Entry #16


Ok so here it is, the renowned shrimp bag, or is it? On the front you still see some of the shrimp art but inside is a different story now, oh yes; I have Moo-ified the bag! Literally!










 On the inside you can see I've modified the bag some, it actually now has a hard center I made of foam board, that was not a feature of the bag, despite the picture seeming as if the bag was solid. So now this bag offers protection for my incoming doll. :)






 Upon closer inspection you can see the material is covered with moo...moo...moo...moo...moo...

I still have yet to deal with the shrimp art on the front of the bag, but that will happen in good time. :)

The Journey: Entry #15

Alrighty so my bag is in! It's been in since the 9th of this month but I've been busy with baby Mocha.
It's certainly NOT worth $80 like some sights have it for, that is seriously retarded. $20 is appropriate to pay for it, the shrimp art makes no sense and yes it is legitimately shrimp art. The bag's dimensions are listed at 27x7x7 my ass... it's about 25ish inches on the inside. But it should still work for my purposes. I added some foam bored to the inside to harden it up, that worked out nicely for now but im going to refit the bag with thin wood in the future. This is the last month I'll be waiting for my doll! The 3rd of next month should see Helios ship! Ahhhhhh!!!! <3

The Journey: Entry #14

I have purchased my Bag! It's not exactly a doll carrier but it should work nicely.

Here is the description from e-bay:


Specifications

27" by 7" by 7".
Outer fabric 100% durable cotton/canvas - Lining 80/20 poly-cotton - Trim 100% poly.
Color - Bone (Natural color of unbleached canvas) with dark blue trim.

Features
Slightly oversized to accomodate your yoga mat plus clothing, phone, keys, water bottle etc.
Designer quality and construction with adjustable padded shoulder strap.
Both an inside and outside zippered pocket for small items
Fully lined with a fabric print of original and fanciful artwork by the renowned artist Brooke Connor.

Honestly the art on the inside of the bag looks like its shrimp or some odd sea creature... I'll see when it gets here which should be in a few days. Other sites had this bag up at $80, probably because of the renowned shrimp art. E-bay had it for $20. SOLD!

The Journey: Entry #13


Well here we are! Just one month left until my 1/3 Bobobie boy comes home!!! My excitement is tempered this month as I have adopted a very small runt kitten, we named her Mocha. Shes not out of the woods yet and taking care of her has sucked up all of my energy to create, I haven't gotten more then 3 hours of solid sleep in about 4 days. Hopefully she will turn the corner here this week. I did however make her the cutest pair of rice-pack body pillows to keep her warm with. n_n
