corygami: Birthday Surprise Box
http://corygami.blogspot.com/2013/07/birthday-surprise-box.html
I made my friend Tara a birthday surprise box, with an HO scale figure (Preiser), a matchbox (we have a bunch left over from our wedding announcements) scrapbooking paper, watercolors, and model train foliage. I glued a magnet to to the back. As with all my projects, I wish my glue jobs, my handwriting, and my straight cuts were neater. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Simple template.

corygami: Miniaturia
http://corygami.blogspot.com/2012/11/miniaturia.html
The largest miniature show on the east coast). After accidentally missing the Miniature convention last year and feeling like bull shit about it, I'm thrilled to tell you that Shelly and I made it this year. The deck was sure stacked against us but we live to blog about it! Shelly got this one picture of the Wright Guide Minis. Had the largest display of cool tiny accessories, definitely a resource I'd use if I was a serious miniaturist. Maybe my favorite piece at the convention:.

While we take the next few years debating on what season our town will be forever fixed, we'll occupy ourselves with apartment appropriate projects like this one:.

corygami: Worlds Smallest Bunting Flags (tm)
http://corygami.blogspot.com/2013/07/worlds-smallest-bunting-flags-tm.html
Worlds Smallest Bunting Flags (tm). Since the Birthday Surprise diorama, I've made three more matchboxes as gifts. I've consecutively made them more challenging to myself (with varying degrees of aesthetic success). This here is the second diorama I made. It is exponentially better than the one I made for Tara. I want to steal the one for tara back and replace it with one of this quality:. Also has a magnet glued to the back. This time, though, I made the bunting flags for real on a gold thread!

corygami: Food Porn Victim
http://corygami.blogspot.com/2012/11/food-porn-victim.html
Like a fashion victim who wears whatever the trend is, regardless of how ridiculous it may looks, a food porn victim will combine spices and unusual ingredients with the intention of a photogenic, rather than tasty, result. Listen, I don't like saying the word 'porn' either! I'm a double victim here! Egg boiled in coffee, yolk with pumpkin and spices, "finished" with cumin and sea salt. I'll tell you, it's. Dill Lovers.

corygami: Totally married!
http://corygami.blogspot.com/2012/11/married-totally.html
As I begin writing this, it is November 12th, 2012, and Francis and I have been married for 41 days. In the first week after we eloped, almost every friend or co-worker who I saw asked me if it 'felt different', the way people joke on birthdays. In this instance, I didn't know whether to say yes or no: 'yes' would require an explanation, and 'no' was flippant and false. So, do we LOOK any different? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

corygami: mollusks have weddings
http://corygami.blogspot.com/2012/12/til-mollusks-have-weddings.html
We went to Atlantic City a few weeks ago, and saw lots of things on the beach that we wanted to believe were natural wonders and one actually pretty cool specimen:. It took a few minutes of internet searching to figure out what it was. The most expensive item at the asian grocery store. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.

corygami: Atlantic
http://corygami.blogspot.com/2013/11/atlantic.html
Instagram photo inspired by all the Boardwalk Empire we've been watching. It's like the casino is out to steal your money! The highlight of the trip for me was the car ride home. We didn't take the AC Expressway- we took a scenic route and stopped at some cute shops and a diner. We spent $3 on craft supplies at a thrift store- look forward to a bunch of stick pin creations. We listened to some great tunes. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.
