April: Felt sushi tissue box cover
May: Charm bracelets
June: T-shirt painting
It was a lot of fun doing them, as it was my first time attempting each one and I just had to hope that they would turn out half decent lol.
So.. With the exception of the black fabric paint for the T-shirt painting, which I got from Homi Art Store in Hongdae, all of the materials I used (felt, beads, chains, charms, clasps, and jump rings) were from Dongdaemun Shopping Complex which is simply a crafter's heaven. If you're ever in need of supplies, I highly recommend going there. You could literally spend an entire day wandering around six floors crammed to the brim with rows and rows of sellers who stock everything from fabric to wool, to buttons and needles, and earring hooks and charms. Best of all, the prices are cheap and reasonable, especially if you're going there to buy in bulk. To get there, go out exit 9 of Dongdaemun subway station, walk straight for a couple of meters and you'll see a big white building on your left. There's a sign that tells you what floors to go to for what material (lol at "stuff" on level 3 and 4).
I find that I usually spend most of my time on the fifth floor, which is where the felt material, chains, beads, and other shiny, pretty things are at. (Mmmm... Shinyyyy... @__@)
Okay, so I know I'm missing an artsy farsty project for July.. I have to admit I kind of slacked off there and didn't make anything, but... there's still time left before the end of August to make up for it. (Lol hopefully I'm not being too ambitious here.)
Later days, sons!

How are you doing these days, son?? It must be summer vacation for you by now right? :D
Thats nice, he must appreciate it >=D their so awesome.
Haha these days have been quite the sad..... me and Tiff are no longer together. For the better we say... but what break up doesn't tear away at the heart especially those long 5 year ones T.T..
Yeah it's the lovely summer vacation period, although mine hasn't really taken off just yet. Being this age, everyone else is working but me... so I've been rather alone haha...
I sure do hope things pick up, its been a tough few weeks...
On a different note, haha I like the new colour scheme. Good choice ! XD
How's Korea going ? In fact Tiff may actually be teaching there next year if she gets selected >=].
So you are still teaching aren't you =P?
