I'm the Oogie Boogie Man!

Tonight I felt like beading but really had no idea what I wanted to do. I looked through my files and saw nothing of interest. I went onto Sprite Resource and spent about 20 minutes or so looking around. I came across Oogie Boogie and decided he would be fun to do. So I added it to Perler Pal and saw it was only 5 colours. Score!
Well 3 hours later, it was a slighty different tune. There is so many of the beads I had to put in bead by bead. Let me tell ya, that part takes forever.

Once it was done, I went about ironing it. After last night's project disaster, I was nervous to iron it. Thankfully the beading gods smiled upon me and I had no problems at all. He is now hanging proudly in the bedroom.


May he haunt your dreams!

Ready to scream!

So tonight I was making my dad's father's day gift. It took me an hour and a half to put it together and another 2 hours to iron. I basically ended up remaking the whole thing, piece by piece. It was so frustrating. I almost threw it out!
But once I got the first side done, the second side worked so much better. I am relieved that I was able to save it and can't wait to give it to him on Monday

Kirby Collection Part 1

Without even realizing it, I started a Kirby collection. I love that little guy. I played the games as a kid and even recently downloaded one onto my Wii. I always play him in any Super Smash brothers game(usually I win too).
So when I made my third Kirby, I wanted to make them all. All his different forms.
I have slowly begun to do it. It will take a while as it requires a lot of different shades of pinks. So hopefully one day I will have an entire wall devoted to Kirby and his cuteness.

This was the first Kirby I ever did, I seen that someone had done a few Kirbys in different poses and this one was my favourite. This was also one of the first bead sprites I ever did so I love it!


This was a Kirby I wanted to do for my bedroom door. He is the sleeping Kirby. I have yet to make a sign for the door to go along with him. I made him using PerlerPal. He was the test run for that site.


This Kirby was done as part of the ghost collection but applies to this collection as well. So cute. He was hard to do as it was all these different shades of blue and I was missing one lol. It's on order now!


This Kirby was fun to do. He looks so cute making soup or whatever he is cooking. I can't wait to make him a part of my new kitchen.

These are just the start of a collection that will take quite a while to complete. I am excited to make them all :)

Bead Artist Of The Week

This week has been rather busy and hopefully I will get around to making a good size post over the weekend(it shall be devoted to Kirby lol)

Anyways, back to the main part of this post.
It is devoted to ShampooTeacher. He is my bead artist of the week.


The Link is amazing! The colour and the detail are great. It looks more computerish(not a real word but ya) than most bead art.




I want a scene like this in my own place. It's just so cool looking and big. One day I would love to achieve this!


I am so jealous of this piece. I loved playing Sonic as a kid and still really love Tails. 

So this is my bead artist of the week, look him up on either Pixelgasm or Deviantart to find more pieces of his.
