Mohawk Hats

I`ve finally found the time to dip my toe back into crochet ! In between finding a job, WAY too many carboots and a ridiculous amount of jam making ! lol

And this is the result, my new collection of Mohawk Hats ! Admittedly theres only 2 of them so far, but trust me, theys WAY more to come !


Green Dino Spikey Mohawk Hat


Purple Tips Mohawk Hat

Each one in the collection is going to be completly OOAK, as I`m not following a pattern.

I`ve already started they next one :D and if it all goes to plan it should be black and red (woot)

All will be available from my Etsy Store or you can e-mail me at talli@tallisdesigns.co.uk for custom orders ^_^

Hope you like em (and if u dont, tuff ! cus I do :P)

Employment

I got a job ^_^

Finally ! lol, well, I`m on a probationary period for up to a month and then it`s mine !

So I guess blogging is going to be a little sparse until I`ve settled in, it was my first day yesterday, I'm only working part-time and I got home and fell asleep for 4 hours ! Meh

I suppose 5 months is a long time to have no job, I do like this part-time lark though, start at 7.30am and finish by dinner time. Plenty of time to get my Etsyness done and my University course when I start in sep/oct (I`m excited ^_^)

Anyhoo, YAY

Flickr Favourites

I decided to do the Flickr Favourites game that I saw a while back and that I was reminded of when I saw it on Trans-craft-indental.

The idea is you:
a. Type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr Search.
b. Using only the first page, pick an image. (You can arrange by "Most relevant," "Most recent," or "Most interesting.")
c. Copy and paste each of the URLs for the images into fd's mosaic maker.

The Questions:
1. What is your first name?
2. What is your favorite food?
3. What high school did you go to?
4. What is your favorite color?
5. Who is your celebrity crush?
6. Favorite drink?
7. Dream vacation?
8. Favorite dessert?
9. What you want to be when you grow up?
10. What do you love most in life?
11. One Word to describe you?
12. Your flickr name?

And this is what I came up with ^_^


1. Pout, 2. Red Currant Mini Cakes, 3. Curtain Call, 4. Green on Green, 5. "I'm going to show you a world where anything is possible. Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you", 6. Caffe splash, 7. blue chevy, 8. Winter had a bad hair day., 9. Mother and Daughter, 10. zero gravity, 11. Eggistentialism III, 12. death of armageddon barbie

Have a go yourself !

Childrens Collection

I`ve decided to dip my toe into the evergrowing Childrens market and I`ve designed a Childrens Prints Collection.

These are all available in my Etsy Store





Each one is cutomisable and can be made in any colour combination ! You can ask for a specific colour combination or give the the room colours and see what I come up with ^_^

You can also request an animal, or have you childs name or a saying added to the print.

That`ll be me then ^_^

You Are 50% Boyish and 50% Girlish

You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch. Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes. You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them. You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.

How Boyish or Girlish Are You?

Website Almost Done !

Ok, I`ve been trying to pull my finger out and actually build a website for AGES and I finally got around to starting it today.
Admittedly I`m using templates but that can be changed later.

Only a couple of Prints in the Square Photos section so far but let me know what you think !

Thanks !
