Normally, I never talk about cute new purses I just got, but this is special

Conscience: You know, it has kinda been a week.
Conscience: Didn't you say when you got an account that you would make sure to update every three days, or at least to post a reason why you wouldn't be updating if it would take longer?
Socchan: Shut up, I've been busy.
Socchan: Also, how dare you say that to me after all the stupid bus driving I've had to do over the past week! Go jump in a lake >:(
Conscience: Jeez, sorry 9_9

*ahem* Now that me being a spoiled brat with a bad temper is out of the way, I have something to share ♥

I have mentioned before that my parents are way cool, yes? Well, today I brought PROOF!

The following are pictures of a Wedding Peach purse my mom made me ♥ And, for the record, she did not cut up a perfectly good manga volume to make this; she cut up a perfectly useless "sneak peek" fee volume I got at an anime convention one year that had a few pages from a bunch of different manga coming out that year. It was crappy and pointless and pretty much worthless - except then my mom made a purse out of it! Yay!




This is the outside, with the handles up. Look at the nifty little circles she used to cover up where the stitching was horrible :D




This is the outside with handles down. Now you can see the pretty pictures that were behind the handles, yay!




These are the sides, featuring Daisy and Lily. Sadly, these were also the best pictures I got of this angle :(



This is a nifty little pocket on the inside; it Velcros shut ♥


Anywho, Mom has a couple more volumes to work with at the moment (a slightly water-damaged copy of Magic Knight Rayearth volume one (old printing), Korean copies of Angel Sanctuary 19 and 20, and a German copy of Full Moon wa Sagashite 1, as well as a couple other "sneak peek" booklets), so she may be coming up with something else ♥ That, or passing the project on to me. On a related note, anyone out there interested in splitting costs for a table at Artists' Alley at AI this year? I'd probably have to either make sure my brother could be there in my place or offer a cut of any profits my products got since I wouldn't really be able to be there very often, but uh. It could work maybe? ...Yeah, I didn't think so either.)

Mm, yeah. I remember the shirts thing. And, of course, they'd have to pay.

:DDDD

[soc_puppet]

I wonder if I shouldn't just delete that post by now...
The question, of course, is what would a reasonable price be...?


:DDDDDD

Keep it just in case?

Ahhh, it depends on the quality of the purse, materials, and time spent. . . I imagine the Wedding Peach one was a rough, testing one, right?

8DDDDDDDD

[soc_puppet]

Probably a good idea, yes.

Yup; I'd probably want to make one or two for practice myself before really taking over, too. There'd probably be a discount if the eventual recipient provided the source images, of course...

Sounds like a solid plan. Keep posting about 'em.

8DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[soc_puppet]

Indeed it does :3 I shall do that! And also mentally debate which, if any, other manga I should... sacrifice to the cause, as it were. *debates*

8DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD......d

I vote the Full Moon one.

XDb

[soc_puppet]

Well, I already planned on sacrificing that one, so that shouldn't be too hard :3 I'll just have to convince Mom to let me cut it up into pretty pieces instead...

;)
