The page for my Tohru cosplay is up! Tell me what you think :D https://inkcaps.neocities.org/studio/sewing/cosplay/tohru/

tohru was one of my biggest childhood heroes!! you did an amazing job! <3 i'm especially impressed with the striped details on the lapel and tie

Very well made! You're talented at sewing

Oh this page is great so far! I love how you discussed the personal meaning behind the costume, too. Sure, cosplay is just for fun, but you chose Tohru for deep reasons. It makes me wanna read Fruits Basket finally heheh... Anyways, I'm looking forward to seeing more pics!!! And more costumes!!!!!!! Aerith when!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@shydeer you're so very kind, thank you!! We can all strive to be more like Tohru honestly!! ;w; I'm very happy with how the ribbon brightens everything up~ ♡♡

@amy ahhhh thank you, you're really sweet!! ♡♡

@flonne thank you so much!! my favorite cosplays are always the ones where I love the character as much as the character's design! it feels so much more personal that way, and and an extension of the storytelling too! ;w; AND ACTUALLY my Aerith cosplay IS almost done and I have a lot more pictures of the process for her too... she'll be the next cosplay page for sure! ♡

I updated my photo log and applied for mythology themed clique, but the biggest addition is my new diary entry! Tell me if you feel like there's this big collective shift towards change or if I'm just crazy sdfsdf https://inkcaps.neocities.org/bedroom/diary/spring2024/

First time reading one of your diary entries, because your comment regarding 'change' hit really strong with some vERy huge changes in my own life recently! Everything from family moving out, new responsibilities, new job, new approaches to my work online, and several others besides x0x So's been intimidating at the very least, I'm ready for a nap after all's said an done lol.

Also the formatting and style of your diary like many of your other pages is just really comfy and inviting <3

yeah im needing to change some shit in how i spend my day-to-day energy / my habits / whatever... end up feeling so spun out sometimes in a lowkey awful way. and the world at large being so intense too

@pira wowwww I do not blame you in the slightest for wanting a nap in the slightest! That sounds like a ton to deal with, especially all at once! Wishing you well through this ;w; ♡ And thank you so much for your words, that means a lot to hear!! My goal is to create an inviting environment, and you're always welcomed to visit anytime!! ♡♡

@sneekrealm the little things we do each day play a huge part in our overall mood honestly. Intense is a great word to describe how things feel right now too tbh, and on such a large scale

oh yeah life has been crazy lately! i started dating my girlfriend this month, and i'm making prints of my art to sell! lots of cool and exciting change! - j

aaah you're reading the brothers k! my fave book <3

yeah I'm curious! I keep seeing people highly recommend it so I had to read it :)

Happy Friday NIGHT I entered a fugue state and somehow busted out a webpage for my cosplay adventures!! It's even cuter than the main sewing nook!! Ahhhh!! ♡＼(￣▽￣)／♡

another amazing layout - love the attention to detail! also looking forward to seeing the callie costume :0

@jeith thank you so much!! I had a ton of fun adding all the little details on this one, so I'm happy you do too! And thank you, I'll be sure to share pictures of Callie ASAP! :D After all this time I'm still happy with how she turned out ;w; trying to decide what Splatoon cosplay is in the stars next!!

Tohru, Lysithea, Queen Fyora, Yuna, and Ichigo?! Dude no way, you have god-tier taste

Loving this layout and your talk of cosplay!!

in LOVE with the layout colours!! ♡

@amy dsfsfds great taste recognizes great taste, right?? 🙏 But seriously, thank you!! ♡♡ I've wanted to be Ichigo since I was 11 or 12 and I'm making it HAPPEN!! This is what it means to be a cosplayer tbh!!

@kiley thank you!! Not gonna lie writing out my personal history really reminded me of why I love it!! ; __ ; ♡

@tabi ahhh thank you!! When I found that screenshot for the header, I knew that I wanted to theme the rest of the page around it! It feels very happy and springy, haha ;u; ♡♡

My studio's sewing nook has opened for all to see!! (and full offense it's one of the cutest pages I've made so far imo!! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡ )

Oooh all the lace is so cute!!! I cant wait to see what you're making! If it's even half as charming as your webdesign, it's sure to blow me away

@flonne ahhhh thank you!! Foollovers always comes in clutch with the cute lace trims! I'm finishing a costume this weekend so I hope to have some pictures up from that soon ;w; thank you again!!

I love seeing people's sewing projects, I can't wait to see the lovely things you have and will make 💖

omg so pretty!! can't wait to see your sewing~

The unique layouts you give to each page of your side is so fun to see everytime you add a new one! <3

@marija ahhhh I do too, that's why I wanted to make my own page for it! But you're so sweet, thank you so much!! I'm excited to start sharing stuff! ;u;

@tabi thank you so much!! My plan is to have some things to share very soon! ᕙ( •̀ ᗜ •́ )ᕗ ♡

@pira it's a ton of fun for me to come up with different layout designs, but I LOVE super cohesive websites like yours too, they're so pleasing! Thank you so much for saying so though, this made my afternoon!! ;u; ♡♡

This is so cute! can't wait to see all your projects!

@mutterbutter ahhhh thank you!! I hope to begin sharing some things later this week actually! ;u; <3

Added some new picrews/dress up games to my about, and added a few new movie reviews to my media log!

I love that you have a picrew section! So cute <3

@amy thank you so much!! They're so fun to do so I thought it would be nice to have a place to stick them. The one you used in your about section is too adorable so I had to include it as well, haha! ;u;

that pokemon picrew omg.. i am having a lot of fun with it haha

@tillie okay RIGHT, I was having a blast with it too... it's SO cute and I love how the colors coordinate!! * __ *

Changed the blurb of my loves page AND I'm treating you all to a late night diary entry yeah!!

the layout of this page is beautiful!

@strangetown ahhh thank you Katie!! It's my favorite of my blog layouts... I'll be a little sad when I have to archive this one for summer, haha! ;w; <3

If you care to share what classes are you most excited about taking??

Your thoughts on how academia is structured is something which resonates a lot with me, it really makes it difficult to do anything beyond the choices you made at a much earlier time when you may have been more unsure of yourself ;__;! Best of luck with all your grad school app work!

@chey ooh honestly I'm hyped for all of them, but I'm really excited for my ceramics class! I've never taken anything like that before and I'm sure it'll be really fascinating! * __ *

@kiley, right, and it's honestly a shame because I feel like your late teens and early twenties is an awesome time for personal exploration, but many often feel pressured to be locked into a certain path! My bachelor's degree is in English and the flexibility of it makes pivoting easier, but I really feel those who studied something like engineering or accounting only to realize they hate it ; __ ;

Did some maintenance stuff + added more items to my bucket list and reversed bucket list/accomplishments!

Yahoo, I created a new page! Come read all about my bucket list!!--And please tell me if we share any dreams! :D ♡

You have so many good dreams, especially the travel and dissertation ones!

@angeleyesprings you're so sweet, thank you Amy!! Stuff the PhD and dissertation are definitely long-term, but it would be so wonderful to give back and contribute to our pool of knowledge, you know?? ;o;

What kind of PhD were you looking at? Btw idk if you're taking bucket list suggestions, but please check out some east coast beaches and the Appalachian mountains. (I noticed Savannah too tho lol)The mountains clear your soul lol, lots of people love AirBnb trips to Asheville, NC!

What a beautiful list! I love how specific it is.

@angeleyesprings ooh the specifics regarding that I'm keeping on the DL! Trying to "move in silence" and not announcing specifics before they're set in stone (been keep lots of things quiet with my IRLs), but you shall find at some point someday, haha! ;u; Your suggestions sound so lovely though, I actually would love to visit the Appalachians!! <3

@cheytopia thank you so much!! I find the more specific something is, the easier it is for me to ground myself and execute a plan!

awesome list!! <3 i hope you get to do all the things!!!

this is lovely and joyful! I'd also love to make stained glass, have a beautiful permaculture garden and see a solar eclipse :) Also wow, synchronous fireflies lottery - I hadn't heard about that before but it's fascinating!

this is such a hopeful lovely page!! it makes me really happy to read!!! i hope you get to do all of these things :D i've definitely done some of them myself hehe

what lovely dreams! this makes me want to make a bucket list too ^_^ i'd also like to go to Japan and adopt a pet rabbit... and find a four leaf clover! I always look for one when i come across a clover patch. I've attended plenty of figure drawing classes so let me know if you want any advice on that front hehe

This is such a cool list! I was wanting to make stained glass and ceramics too, it looks like a lot of fun– I hope you can get the chance to do that sometime in the near future!

@xandra thank you so much, I do too!! I'm committing to making it happen!! ᕙ( •̀ ᗜ •́ )ᕗ

@salixx ahhh thank you, it makes me happy to hear that it comes across as joyous! How wonderful you want to do those things too, I know you will at some point! ♡ The synchronous fireflies are fascinating, right? Seeing them would be utterly magical honestly ; __ ;

@manyface thank you, it makes ME happy to hear you felt that way while reading it! It makes me excited for what the future holds! ;u; ♡

@cloverbell you should make one!! Tbh I find goal setting and laying out dreams like this to be really invigorating. It allows you focus and visualize on what it is you want!! And also it would be fun reading yours as well ;u; Even after all these years I still have my four-leaf clover. They're really special so I hope you find one in your next clover patch!! ♡♡

@cloveratelier thank you Kiley!! They're both such fascinating crafts, right? I've actually enrolled in a ceramics class so that's on the docket for me, but hopefully you join and try for yourself soon!! ⊂((・▽・))⊃ ♡♡

FINALLY added to new pictures to my photo log, updated my outfit log, and added a new member to the Rainbow Fountain! Kachow! ヽ(*・ω・)ﾉ

'the most comfortable brown loafers in the world' is exactly what i've been looking for over a year!! ;_; what brand is yours? (also, the outfit sounds sooo cute!!)

@tabi apologies for the delay in answering this, but mine are from Born!! They're totally worth the money--I hope you find a pair that you like! ;u;
