It was really cute watching this customer picking out which book purse they wanted. As they put back the unchosen book with SUCH REGRET it was very obvious which book they actually wanted. #upcycledfashion #recycledbooks #seriesofunfortunateevents #lemonysnicket #pocketbook

Leveled up my clicker keycaps into SPINNY clicky keycaps. Inspiration hit and I happened to have the parts on hand. 🤩 They don't work with all my charms but whatever. I'll have these first at the @udstreetfair next weekend. #keycaps #fidgettoys #inspration #newidea #udistrict

Now straw hat pirate manga pages turned into a wallet. I recently had a custom request for a One Piece wallet that DID NOT have Usopp 😆 Go Go Gadget Luffy, lol that is some fan art we should see #upcycledbooks #mangafashion #luffydmonkey #onepiecefanart #otakuart

A customer wanted me to make a custom wallet from their extra Lorcana cards. Did you know that TCG cards are much thicker than manga pages 😮‍💨. My sewing machine didn't play nice #lorcanatradingcardgame #tcgart #upcyclingaccessories #gamerculture #mtgplaymat

My Nigiri Magikarp Sushi Enamel Pin is sold out. I'm taking time to rethink my enamel pin product line and my ongoing strategy since my booth is overflowing with products. So if I restock this pin it won't be until next year. #magikarp #sushiart #punkrockfleamarket #pokemonartist #pokemonpin

Crochet this cosplay wig for Intern 2's Frieren cosplay but he's gone into an anti-hat phase of his life. Yes it really is one size fits all, or I have a really small head. #frieren #frierencosplay #cosplaywigstyling #crochetwig #SakuraCon

The maker is the most critical because they know every spot "it could have been better". But if you step back 3 feet and look, those flaws melt away. Wanda wasn't as proud of her wig, but I thought it was amazing. #fairyoddparents #emeraldcitycomiccon #cosplaywip #cosplaywig #cosplaybuild

Refilling my Etsy's Madoka Upcycled Manga wallet listing. RiniAppleCafe.Etsy.com Madoka Magica has always been a popular series for sales. Maybe cause everyone has strong feelings over Kyubey. #etsyhandmadewithlove #madokamagica #mangafanart #kyubey #recycledbooks

Some students were at my booth. One picked up a keychain, eventually they left. I just assumed they put it back. But it was missing. I wondered if they came back, could I even do or say anything about it? #artistalley #kpopdemonhuntersrumi #kpopdemonhunters #kpopdemonhuntersfanart #huntrix

these ruby and weiss charms from @smallrinilady.bsky.social are permanent fixtures on my phone case now, would’ve got the full set but the mall shop I found them in was out of yang and it felt weird to single her out

"mass manufacturing" of my papercuts. If I'm going to make one I might as well make a few extra. But they don't need to be the same? Tee hee hee, now I have dancing Chopper!!! #stopmotionvideo #stopmotionanimation #stopmotionpuppet #tonytonychopper #tonitonichopper #onepiece #paperpuppet
