Oh Deery, Me

I've been bitten by the crafting bug again ^o^

Mostly to make deer things. Oh how I love deer things. 

My first hand-made collar was pretty lopsided, so I scraped it.

I made cute pom-poms out of it. 

Three key chains pom-poms and one pin for my beret (which is is the mail) c:

(I got the idea for that from Fawn & Doll) 

I added loops and buttons to my cuffs and deconstructed my earmuffs.

They hurt my ears, so I decided I would buy an earmuff base and customize it. 

Small collar

What's left of the earmuffs

Finished cuffs

Underside of the beret pom-pom

Top of pom-pom

Pom poms keychains!

While I was wearing my new collar, one of the sides of the ribbon detached :'c

I tried my best to re-sew it, but it was a rather awkward angle. 

 

 It still looks fine, I think

I also ordered new "fabric"

 This one was rather cheap.

(^This jacket is still for sale^)

This design pops up once in a while, so I wanted to grab it while I could!

This one was not cheap (relativity)

Well, compared to the scarcity of fabric, $50 wasn't bad, I guess. 

I have a long list of items I want to make when the jackets arrive.

Most of the designs are of item I want but cannot afford u_u

My list of items to make includes:

1. A vest (this will take up the majority of the large jacket)

2. A head band with a bow and pearls (from the large jacket)

3. My beret (I already made the pom-pom from my left over fabric)

4. A furry 2-way bow (from the large jacket)

5. A hat (from the small jacket)

6. More pom-pom key chains with a bow and pearl chain (from both jackets)

7. Earmuffs (from the small and large jackets, hopefully)

8. A new collar (from the small jacket)

9./10. This was just finishing the small collar and cuffs 

Besides dear things, I also got some other crafting materials

I want to make this button into a hair accessory. I think Wonder Rocket made something similar, does anyone have a link for that?

 This is going to be for Dolly-style accessories

Ribbon and pearls for brooches and key chains

 

And a bunny stamp! :3

Fawn Collar + Outfit

My fawn collar arrived ♥

It's not to thick, lined with broadcloth (very similar to my duvet cover), and tripped with a velvet ribbon

I can't wait to wear it ^_^ 

The fur is more of a grey tone, but still very nice

Bonus: Outfit (with my new Innocent World blouse !!!)

Blouse: Innocent World

Skirt/belt: Good Will

Thanks for looking♥

Halloween Outfit

This Halloween, I dressed up as a deer ♫

I really have fun doing my makeup ♥

I made my own antlers and accessories also

Most of my outfit wasn't too exciting (all brown) so here are some make-up shots

My friend was a teddy bear!

Bonus "deer in the headlights" silly face

Monthly Challenge Theme: Fawn Print

Theme: Fawn prints

This is by far my favorite challenge so far ♪ I can safely say I have an (unhealthy) obsession with all things deer. Motifs, faux fur, prints, make-up, everything. The challenge this month is to do something with fawn spots. Make a collar, a vest, a cute bag, anything. And if you find any sites selling faux fur fabric, PLEASE share. I have yet to find any (besides my Disney children's jacket u_u)

Bonus: I just bought this handmade collar!!! ;A; My first real fawn item~

P.S. I was a deer for Halloween c: photos soon!

Anyways, onto inspiration photos~ (photos from EGL, Tumblr, etc. Feel free to comment if they are your and you would like to be credited).
