New Year! Yay!

Okay, so I'm about an hour away from 2009 right now. A few things I want to do in 2009:

• Build a guitar. I know it sounds CRAZY intimidating, but I think I can do it! I'm thinking of doing something like this. I need to look into the quality of these things first, but if all is well, why not?
• Open new doors for my Etsy shop. I want to come up with some more great product lines and have double the fun for 2009!
• Drastically improve my guitar skills. I'm not bad now, but I can DEFINITELY improve. Plus, if I can get one step closer to the solo on this song, well, it's one step closer to AWESOME!

Among other things. I guess I really have a longer list, but it's full of cliche New Years resolutions that I'll probably forget about in a week.

Yeah, like that Black Hole Sun solo isn't an unrealistic goal....but hey, the negative little voice in the back of my head likes to blog too.

Mastercard Hug Felt Pin/Brooch

This is an adorable little felt pin that looks like a MasterCard Hug! So cute. This is an original LeArmoire design/concept and will cutely decorate jackets, shirts, purses, hats, etc. This is a perfect way to give someone a hug they can have with them everyday, all the time! It's a great gift, and it's great for keeping all to yourself!

The entire pin is hand stitched, and the face and heart are glued on securely. It is just slightly stuffed with a bit of fiberfill and love.

Available for purchase here!

I Am A UG'er.

I am a UG'er! Meaning, I have a profile on Ultimate Guitar!

I am a UG'er because of the following reasons:

1) I am a guitarist
2) They have a lot of tabs, and other informative music related things
3) Its easy to find other guitarists into the same music as me. This is the only place in the world where I find a large community of grungers that I actually want to talk to. And we all know grunge=happiness.
4) It's a great place to find new bands, like Hellfire!
5) Because I am a nerd and I do nerdy things.

I've Wanted One of These Forever.

I've wanted a messenger bag FOREVER but none of them seem just right. So I made my own! I'm thinking of putting some of these up for sale sometime, if anyone shows interest in them. If not, I'm still really happy because I have one I LOVE!

This bag has a Palestinian flag on it, and a quote from a Rage Against the Machine song (Voice of the Voiceless). It reads, "You'll never silence the voice of the voiceless."

I'm so psyched about having such a personalized bag! YAY!

365 Days Project

So I joined a new project on Flickr! It's called 365 days object project. You pick one object and you take a picture of it in different settings everyday for a year! I joined a little late, of course, but it's okay. I chose my Chuck Taylors for my object, because I just got them on the 14th and it will be interesting to see them change. I love this project so much! You can see my progress here!
