Hi~
Its been a while since a real post or a post about what the things that I been wanting to post about hehe :P I know seem like I have been really slacking on making post and I wanted to apologize,, lately my mind have been everywhere, couldnt really get in the mood to post since its alot of work to make a good and long post since I have been feeling fatigued and stressed. I feel like I am loosing a part of me lately with all the stress and battling depression, things that used to make me happy I no longer get the urge to do and the things that used to put a smile on my face slowly fading away and so I have been trying to relax more often since once I get in the zone with work, etc and on top of that having family issues, making big decisions on future plans, I forget to relax and that mounts up in a pile of stress that I seem to get lost in it so that is another reason I have been mia just been trying to get myself back together so that I can enjoy blogging and making things again :)
if you have been a reader of my blog for very long time I am sorry I havent been make a post about art, photography and more of a personal post I am trying to get back in to that again and get in touch with you all again♥ Again thank you so much for taking your time to visit and read my blog, I truly appreciate all your support and most of all LOVE~ and thank you for always communicating with me even though I most of the time forget to reply back here in the blog but please remember that I am not doing that on purpose please talk to me on twitter since its easy for me to reply back to you there and I am also going to upgrade the commenting form here on blogger so that I can reply back to your comments easier so please be patient with me and thank you for understanding♥
ok back to the post; ^^;;
here are some preview of items that will be in ekiLove my handmade store♥ currently working more items and will try to get them in the store early next week<3 will keep you update and again I am sorry I have been really slacking on keeping up with ekiLove and making updates there,, there are always room for improvements right? :3
First are swarovski crystal in aquamarine AB and light amethyst AB both really beautiful in person~
Next item are not handmade by me but I thought they are really kawaii and pretty so I am going to carry them in the store :) Made with fresh water pearl and zircon earring in 18K GP comes in 4 different colors!
Been making on some headbands and trying to perfect them by seeing what type of bow and fabrics work well with this style of headband and Iam pleased with the results but still need to tweak them so that they look super kawaii ^__^
this bow like my past headbands they are move-able so you can wear them to your liking to the sides or the center :) Bangs are growing so fast and driving me crazy so thinking about growing them out what you think?
Love packages!
Rina always surprised everyone with her LOVE packages like a ninja!! X3 She is one of the most sweetest person that I am lucky to be friends with, You always put a smile on my face and utter shock with your kindness,,, please stop spending so much money on me I feel terrible EVERYTIME @__@ I cannot thank you enough! Cannot wait to meet you♥ :D Thank you so much for this amazing gifts♥
She went to little Tokyo Sanrio store during Cherry Blossom Festival and got me this Hello Kitty LE Kanazawa Leaf mirror! Its made with a traditional Japanese technique of gold leaf craft coating that has been around for 400 year. Looks so elegant and pretty featuring HK in kimono XD
One of Rina's HG item Laneige extra easy liquid eyeliner that she have been using for over 10 years!! But she said she is now more in love with Dolly Wink liquid eyeliner LOL
Goes on really smooth and easy to line with but the tip of the applicator is stiff so you have to get used to it at first unlike the soft felt tip of Dolly Wink liner, the product are really similar to K-palette one day tattoo liquid eyeliner in terms of the color and how the product stays on doesnt smudge, goes on really matte. :)
I really like them! Thank you so much Rina for always sending me your HG items to try you are the best♥
Kay from Bihadadiaries sent me a love package as well~!! She always spoils me and knows just what I want and like, its amazing to have a friends like you and thank you so so much for thinking of me! いつもお世話になってごめんね,本当にありがとうございます!

ReplyDeleteaww eki you don't have to apologize. i know what you mean. *gives you a big hug* sometimes when you have so much bottling up, it is just so overwhelming and you don't want to deal with stuff.
ReplyDeletehaving a blog can be so stressful. you have such wonderful posts and talent that lots of people comment. it takes a lot of energy to keep up with everyone's requests and questions and not feel crazy by the end of the day!
i know some people demand a lot but if you are really stressed lately, take a break and don't feel bad :) you are a human being too and you need proper rest for your psychological health as well.
i will always be reading your posts and saying ganbatte, eki! :D you go girl!

ReplyDeleteBest, Lisamarie
Aww, I can't wait for Ni no Kuni!. Keep up the good work. :)
ReplyDeleteJust curious, for my first pen-style liner, would you get Dolly Wink or Cuore K-palette?.. I live in the South/New Orleans where it's extreme temps and high humidity so I'm worried about it lasting through weather conditions.
Ooooh, the new headbands look sooo cute! And aww Eki! I missed your second batch of those earrings... ;_; Will you be making more? I actually don't really have a mailing address this summer (I'm subletting grad housing on campus and the girl didn't leave me her mail key or anything, but I might get a PO box...).
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing packages from Rina and Kay! :D
I know how you feel about the stress and not blogging. Feel better Eki and blog when you feel like it. Those are the best posts in which your whole heart is put into it ^^
