Hello, I am Amanda Hunny.

I haven't updated here in ages, but I've been very dedicated on my Tumblr. 

Follow me there:    http://amandahunny.tumblr.com/    for all my latest projects, inspirations, and dresses. 

Thanks!

Millinery!

Saddleback is a wonderificus school for offering a millinery class! 

First project is Buckram, which is a strongish material that is used inside of hats like: top hats, boaters, regency period bonnets, ect ect... but I am making a cloche (awesome flapper style hat for all you non-knowers). Here is my inspiration! 

Im totally gonna glam that up with beads and trims and also synthetic flowers and perhaps a bird or two?! Its pattern making time! =)

Also Nicholas (my love) is in town and we have so much planned!

Here is a little glimps:

Pumpkin carving, salmon alfredo, SD museum of art, bowling with vince and sugar bear, visit to Biola, birthday party for nicholas, tidepools, picniks, strolling about, suspender shopping and maybe a sundae or four...

Such a lovely afternoon!

also I don't wish to correct my spelling or grammar today.

So I am taking a photo class....

i dunno.... 

Just around the corner!

Halloween! 

What to be, What to be??

Here is one of my favorites:

(2nd grade)

Other things Ive been:

Pipi Longstocking

Witch (3x)

Cat (2x)

Vampire

Bunny

Fairy Princess

Cleopatra (2x)

Hippie

a more fashionable indian

Rag Doll

Dalmation

I cannot remember the rest!

Soooo.... what to be?

Here are some of my ideas:

No, its not a Police Box, its a Tardis!

(Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space)

 yep, I wanna be a box!

and if you know anything about anything, Nick is thinking about being the Doctor.

Alice! Super awesome zombie fighter chick, comes with super human powers!

Plus I really want a pair of boots like those!

Xena warrior princess 

I just need a blonde friend named Gaby...

But honesty I most likely will go to the Halloween shops and buy a fun wing and wear that.

Done! Although it is fun to dream! 

And Happy Birthday (September 16) to Finn!

Things around the house in disguise

Because I can, not because I can't. 

This is dedicated to my brother because I know he is a reader and he is finally growing and shaving beards and mustaches. I love you little chenzito! 

Dresser Makeova'

Okay this was the dresser, purchased at Target like 2 1/2 - 3 years ago.

It is a lovely dresser, and I am a lovely destructor. 

It needed some TLC and spray paint!!!!

Flash forward....

Supplies:

Spray paint: I have no idea what this color is labeled 

3 things of molding: they are anywhere from 9-20 bucks each

(its cheaper than a new dresser!)

super strong glue: I used 'hard as nails'

a dude with a saw: I used Nicholas(my love)

I think you can pretty much figure out how I did this so, nuff said.

Instead lets dissect what is in the drawers!

Drawer numero uno:

brushes, pens, ect: yes, good, I need these things

Purse: leather

craft turned bad: its cotton, but it wont take to any dyes.... even lovely prochem dyes!

tea can: for use of storage, love love love storage

nick's birthday present: its a secret and its awesome!

Coffee can: i think im gonna put all my change in there and then become a millionaire 

b day car: from my parents, yeah im 21 now, no i probably wont ever drink

hanger: to hang.... 

Drawer Deux:

slightly boring must haves with an impressive collection of rulers. 

restasis was for my mums eyes, she got that lasik, and loves it

and i love the restasis containers, so great for making washes and keeping them!

Drawer 3:

Knitty-Yarn-Fiber drawer

Mostly half done knitting projects and a shnazzzzy show box.

pound of yarn: taken from my nanas house, she has all sorts of lovely materials lying around.

plastic bag: sad sad.... the ban on plastic bags was not passed?!?! i couldn't believe it. 

Final drawer:

mostly papery stuff and i am getting bored of this!

i love books and electricity! 

Monkey Approved.

and as you can see he has adopted a disguise, to keep his identity safe.

Cheers (was a terrible show)

Bye!

All the better to see you (and other things) with!

new glasses! 

better update to follow shortly.

pecans!
