Not that I'm trying to complain, I am very lucky to have supportive parents who are helping me go to school instead of being pushed into working a full-time minimum wage job. And I have been able to find time to do festive Halloween stuff like my pumpkin above, my Batgirl costume, and Halloween hair bows.

Happy Halloween
Today is Halloween, it is my favorite holiday and of course I am spending it studying. Taking on a 15 hr work load for classes, add in the fact that it's expected to put in 2 hours of study time per credit hour, there's another 30 for a grand total of 45 expected hours of school work. That's a full time job there, plus I work about 20 hours a week at Hobby Lobby and try to squeeze in time for my second job which is very much come when you can (which is hardly ever, I will admit). Needless to say, I am getting burnt out, but I have to keep pushing onward.

Happy Halloween! I'm gonna try and finish my studying so maybe I can watch a spooky movie tonight.

Marvel Bows
So I had to urge to get crafty so after work I went to JoAnn Fabric's to look at their fabric selection (couldn't find anything at my work place). I immediately zeroed in on Marvel comic book fabric and wanted to wear it. A few weeks prior I had come across anneorshine's youtube video where she shows how to make bows out of fabric.
Anneorshine's Video
She used vinyl in her video but mentioned that this could be used for other types of fabric. I just had to see if I could get comic book bows. I followed the instructions on the video and by the end of it I made 2 bows (with enough fabric to make 6 more. I wore the Iron Man bow yesterday and proudly showed off my latest creation. I can't wait to make more.
