I am still undecided if I want to wear Sphene or G’raha for this.

Hadn't had much time to play since pre-patch 🥲
I still need to do the MSQ and raids. So happy about the holiday emote though! I miss Chicago's Christkindlmarket.

The weekend went too fast! Luggage space/weight was limited due to workshop supplies, so I wore two versions of Nice from To Be Hero X.
#tbhx was my fav series this year, and we were aggressively converting our friends to watch it 😆

Luggage space is limited due to workshop supplies, so here's what I'm packing for Holiday Matsuri!
We have almost an entire #TBHX cast on Sunday!
I saw there is a Saturday gathering too, but I might be teaching at the same time.

In other news, @turtlesmithy.bsky.social and I will be at Holiday Matsuri as Cosplay Academy instructors this year! We’ll be doing leather and weathering workshops again, and I have a new wig workshop for covering foam/forms with hair.

In October I made a Sophie Hatter cosplay for a collaboration with Fabric Wholesale Direct. I was finally allowed to share my video today on IG!
I kept her a surprise mostly to see if that would make a difference in social media engagement (it has performed better than my other collabs).

I wasn’t expecting we’d have a nice photoshoot for Spice and Wolf at ColNorth, so I didn’t bring my fruit basket to conserve car space. Luckily I had a single apple left among our road trip snacks though LOL 🍎

I’m thankful for where I am today, with friends and family who support me and my craft.
I’m thankful for my husband @turtlesmithy.bsky.social for taking that journey alongside me. Life as an artist can be difficult, but it is less so with you. ❤️
