PUPPIES ARE FOR CUDDLES, NOT ABRASION TESTING.

dear vinyl,
HAHAHAHAHA PWNED!!!!!!!11

friends and lovers, THE PUPPYLOVE PURSE!!!!! it's a ten(?)-inch courier-type bag with adjustable shoulder-strap. unfortunately, there are no inside pockets. maybe next time? i really like pockets, and i have made them a couple times. they're not so hard. the flap is kind of larger because of the seam, and what i should have done is cut it separately and attach it at the end so everything would be the same size. but i didn't, oh well.




design detail, because it's oh-so cute.



and the strap. it's made out of that seatbelty webbing strap junk. and it is adjustable. attached to the sides with d-rings. also, the flap closes with snaps. i didn't take a photo of this part because it's kind of pointless, but the reinforcements under the snaps are stars instead of just extra squares. red stars. because i'm cool like that.

the price is still undecided. suggestions welcome! i don't want to be disingenuous and charge through the roof, because it's definitely not worth eight thousand dollars, but this is, in fact, a fundraiser i've been roped into crafting for, so i think people will be okay with paying a little more if they know where the money is going, i.e. not to me. that was probably a huge run-on sentence, but eh.

i was thinking of packing it with literature about animal testing and pet hoarding and dogfighting (which i have not exactly written yet) but i think this would be preaching to the choir. also, i am debating whether or not to write up anything about spaying/neutering your pets, mainly because i'm not certain where i come down on this issue. my gut says i am against it. but i also know that people are unable/too lazy to find good homes (or, any at all) for the baby animals their pets have (not to mention all the stray animals in the first place), and there are all sorts of unwanted and unloved animals wandering around who starve to death, or are just targets for abuse and/or neglect. and sold off to testing facilities. and etcetera. and these are all good points. but i keep coming back around to the fact that, you know, we (as a society, not to put too fine a point on it) suck and how would i like it if someone insisted i chop off my reproductive organs so there would be no chance of me getting pregnant, thus no potential children of mine will suffer? i mean, it's really not the same at all, but then again it kind of is.

i'm drinking this smoothie i made, because there were some bananas laying around that needed to be used quickly, and it's got that kind of turpentine-y rotten fruit taste and i am probably going to puke the whole thing up later, but i just can't stop drinking it! it has banana and mango and peach and strawberries. damn! i'm actually hoping the mango just wasn't quite ripe and it tastes a little funny.

i played with the most adorable tiny grey fluffy kitten today. it was hand-sized. i have never wanted a kitten more!

so far, i think goldfrapp is kind of boring and i am totally let down. i hope this first impression proves to be false, because i had such high hopes, i really did.

general craftiness, a.r. bullshit, puppies and kitties
