PILLY & Canteen Bottle Sleeve & My Cheap Christmas Cards




So Here is PILLY. He looked like a pill when I started creating him. With no arms and legs, that's how he got his name. I've been wanting to crochet/knit for so long but since work in the lab has been getting busy, it has been taking up most of my time. Plus, I left most of my cool yarn in california when I went to visit this past October and I'm waiting for my mom to send it back to me in the mail. I got desperate and went to the Hobby Lobby by my apartment and bought three kinds of yarn and started playing around. I also bought another crochet needle in a different size: 5.5 and this worked really well with the yarn I was using.

PiLLY is made out of Baby Bee yarn.
I highly recommend this brand for super softness. There was a sale at Hobby Lobby.
A pack is usually 5.99 but I got it for about 3.49.

He is super soft and I stuffed him with yarn and I think he is meant for Babies.
I think I might give these creatures away to my nieces and nephews for Christmas.







Pilly is overly dramatic.

wait let's make it more dramatic.




yeah. He's playing dead.

Oh and see that cool creature in the back?
There is my new canteen bottle with my very own HELLOYELLOW bottle holder!
haha i guess it's as sleeve but I was very annoyed how my Canteen bottle usually has cold water and it condenses outside of the bottle. It leaves marks on the surface of the table if you dnt have a coaster, so now I have this.











Right now in Houston, it's around 50 degrees. So whenever I want to drink water, it's extremely cold to touch the surface of the canister. BUT PROBLEM solved with this helloyellow sleeve.








So that's what I've been up to for now.

Also I made CHRISTMAS CARDS.
Due to my very low income and poor lifestyle of living, I have become incredibly cheap this year.
I apologize to my family and friends for this year's christmas tidings from dear ol' jenelyn.
I have become so cheap that I am reusing old thank you cards as my holiday cards this year.
please let me demonstrate.




to your left, you will see my normal owl.
to the right, you will see a christmas owl!
TADA.

I just cut out christmas hats and pasted them on.
Enjoy everyone!

Painting- Jellyfish



I got a new job so it has been taking a lot of my time. I haven't been able to knit especially during the weekdays. But this weekend, I was able to buy a paint set and make my friend, Jing, her bday present. Her very own Jellyfish painting that she can now hang in her room. It's like a jellyfish swimming/floating in the air. We use to share a room together but now I moved. Now she can decorate and still have remnants of me there haha. Happy Birthday Jing!







lol i suck at painting. sorry. i tried.






we also started moving into our new office space at work. my very own desk. so i made my own bulletin board. haha my desk is so... childish. sigh" but very helloyellow like ehhh!

Pepe



I wanted to make an Amigurumi Baby. This is Pepe.
I like when babies have big heads. They look so cute.
This is my first Amigurumi that isn't just a ball... it has a body, arms, and legs.
Progress!





looking off into the sunset . . .



I am currently moving to Houston . . .
and there is a Hobby Lobby so close to where I'll be living . . .
I went inside and spent almost 2-3 hours... picking up things and putting them down cuz I started to realize it was going to cost a fortune. Did you know you can make Lolllipops . . . from scratch?!

And my new room is going to be full of these things. Ppl must think I'm nuts.
I wanted to make a lot of art around my walls and here is what I started drawing the other night . . .


I need to get a frames.

I actually was trying to make a doll but somehow when Jlee was playing with it and asking me what it looked like, I bursted out and said "SPERM!" cuz as it glides through the air the little string meant for another body piece actually looks like Flagellum. and there ya go... TADA. sperm. on accident.

  
See.. here is sperm swimming through your uterus into your fallopian tube

Amirugumi!


I finally figured out how to crochet... BALLS...

I am incredibly tired for some reason . . . but this crafting is so addicting
i can't stop.. won't stop...
I belong in a sweat shop.

I like crocheting. It requires a lot of math. I like math.

Here are my new friends:
