New Screen Print!

It has been raining all day so i had to do something to keep away the gloom. I made a new screen print. I dont know why i call them screen prints, there are no screens just me hand painting them all. To keep interest i guess? :P It was really fun to make & i just sort of did it without thinking about it. I wanted to use flowers but didn*t want to do the normal flower, so i did a vine flower. It is a large & it also has FREE shipping as does all the screen prints in my shop, you should swing by & get yourself one.

I thought i was going to have a relaxing weekend, then i remembered all the things we had going on this weekend. Saturday was awesome! I went to Jennifer's house to hang out with her & my god daughter & tina. When i got home Justin and i got ready to go see my brother's band play. Jennifer & her boyfriend got here & we were there by 9. We had a few drinks sat around and BSed waiting for the cover band to finish up. My dad was there to support the local music & his son. :P So i let him buy his daughter & her friends a few shots & drinks. He was drinking himself & was sort of waisted...I made sure our friend Hunter had his keys & hunter to me know pops was going to stay with him so he wouldnt drive & he would have somewhere soft to sleep.

A New Day

Last night was a bad night, one pot hole after another. I ended up going to bed at 3am this morning. I*m so tired & my head is killing me. I screen printed a shirt for myself last night. I think it*s cute i really like it. I had to get a medium Hanes youth shirt. Justin was picking on me because i*m so tiny. It took forever because it was the first time i had done it the way i did. It was simple just took a lot of time to insure the detail. I*m doing another shirt for someone my brother knows. I*m going to see how it turns out & if its a go this is the way im going to do it so forth. The orginal way is not cheap by any means & I*d have to sale shirts for $20 to make a slight profit, between the time it takes & the cost it takes to produce it. Now i can sell them for $15.00. It works out for both me & the shirt wanter's. I think it*s better quality the new way too. It*s way more hands on so it's involved & I can save a lot of money with inks & screens.Take a peek!

Happy Fathers day everyone!

Paper bags & Plastic Hearts

I took the car back yesterday & got all my money back. We left & mom said she liked the way i handled it. :o] Grrr, lol now ive gotta find another car i want. I*m off the Tc's. They*re pretty & shiny but they*re a hefty payment. lol like mom said i need to make sure i can make my payments. I tend to be a lot lazy at times, if i dont wanna go. i dont go. My motto is "I don*t wanna go & they can*t make me!". lol I*ll be working with my mom though so i*ve gotta go. Bleh..

For the past few days ive been doing templates for the screen printing im going to be trying. I get to start tonight! I*m so excited. I did a shirt for my brother & i wish i took a picture because it came out beautifully. Now his friends are calling me with idea's they'd like to have done. I*m thinking i*m going to do matching totes with the female tee's, I*m also throwing around the idea of clutches too like one big set. I was calculating money wise though & they*d be like $40 all together. They*d kick ass though! I*ll keep you posted!

If you*ve posted by the shop lately you know theres not a lot there! That's for 2 reasons. Reason A. I*m broke ;) Reason B. I*m trying to revamp UC.etsy.com & UC.net. I*m not doing cards anymore. I*m going to concentrate on jewelry & if this printing thing works out a little of that. I had a chat with my financial adviser [Justin] last night & he said "Your Unique, put something out there no one else has thought of." then he went onto say that im the unique-est person he has ever met. Everyone we know agree's with him too. He said i was the person everyone just wanted to know. My personality pops & I*m not afraid to be myself around anyone & if they dont like it i may or may not have a few choice words for them, depending on the day & caffeine intake. He loves that i am my own person & I*m one of a kind. ;o] he wishes he could be the way i am. I told him i wasnt always like this, someone took me by the hand & let me know it was ok & lead me down the path i needed to take to find myself. I can not thank him enough. We don*t speak anymore but i wont ever forget everything he taught me.
