Lately

Lately, I've been glued to my ibook more than usual. (The usual amount is already pretty bad!) Editing photos with photoshop and illustrator sucks up my time when I'd rather be crocheting new pieces! However, boring and tedious Muntedkowhai related work still needs to be done. Oh how I wish I could just make make make! Doing all these computer work has left me feeling uninspired. (plus my right hand hurts alot from all the clicking and drawing)

We did watched Coraline tonight and if you have watched it before, you'll know why I was inspired to look up vintage buttons! Coraline is incredible. Especially the opening scenes. Oh lordy. Next animation on the list, UP!

I browsed through Rakubutton's shop for inspirations. She always has the loveliest buttons! I just had to purchase these for some would be Muntedkowhai fall one of a kind pieces:

My weekend has zoomed by too quickly and been blurred by the overuse of my laptop. It's like my head is filled with nothing but editing and saving files as JPEG etc. ahhhh! I'm so glad Memorial weekend is coming up because the OSU crew and I are going camping. We haven't camped this entire summer but it will be good to get together again and enjoy computer-less time!

I have big news to share but will have to wait a month until everything is finalised. Lifechanging!

Hello!!

Hehe, you've been doing more button hunting than me, these days. My button hunting days have been on hiatus...

I really want to watch Coraline. Hopefully I'll get around to it soon, but it's good to know that you've given it a good rating :)

Hi Y!
My hunting days were on hiatus as well, those fantastic ones just don't pop up very often!
Coraline, two thumbs up!I watched this segment on how the lady actually knitted all of the clothes, it was amazing!
