I am so excited! Addie (mateycouture.etsy.com) helped me with tags, which I just finished editing. Thank you to everyone at Threadbanger for all your support!<br /><br />I took a massive amount of pictures on Monday. My original plan was to take them at a park for a more natural background, but unfortunately it was raining. So I grabbed a white sheet and chair and created a more classic, pristine background. Maybe it was better I did it this way. They came out very well.<br /><br />So without further ado, my first 10 items!<br /><br /><br /><br />Labryinth:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1mHgCzmI/AAAAAAAAABg/VKTC7Ca31f0/s1600-h/DSCN1756.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1mHgCzmI/AAAAAAAAABg/VKTC7Ca31f0/s400/DSCN1756.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418522599389056610" border="0" /></a><br />Out at Sea:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1q_Ja5TI/AAAAAAAAABo/kgTQWyabd9g/s1600-h/DSCN1852.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1q_Ja5TI/AAAAAAAAABo/kgTQWyabd9g/s400/DSCN1852.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418522683046028594" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Bold Streaks:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1bnBfSiI/AAAAAAAAABQ/uVHtUKu3LgQ/s1600-h/DSCN1917.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1bnBfSiI/AAAAAAAAABQ/uVHtUKu3LgQ/s400/DSCN1917.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418522418872273442" border="0" /></a><br />Vintage Burst:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1VyZIhNI/AAAAAAAAABI/t_5MC7EnH-8/s1600-h/DSCN1876.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1VyZIhNI/AAAAAAAAABI/t_5MC7EnH-8/s400/DSCN1876.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418522318845019346" border="0" /></a><br />Bubble Gum:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1QG2JDAI/AAAAAAAAABA/wpFtb5kw-yk/s1600-h/DSCN1787.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1QG2JDAI/AAAAAAAAABA/wpFtb5kw-yk/s400/DSCN1787.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418522221256182786" border="0" /></a><br />Quilter's Delight:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1J_wuwRI/AAAAAAAAAA4/br8lEmv6YKg/s1600-h/DSCN1807.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1J_wuwRI/AAAAAAAAAA4/br8lEmv6YKg/s400/DSCN1807.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418522116275224850" border="0" /></a><br />Reflections:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1FJDB5EI/AAAAAAAAAAw/TalpPhrb0Sc/s1600-h/DSCN1785.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ1FJDB5EI/AAAAAAAAAAw/TalpPhrb0Sc/s400/DSCN1785.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418522032868549698" border="0" /></a>Modern Art:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ0cufXC-I/AAAAAAAAAAg/py92a5B1LRY/s1600-h/DSCN1707.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 395px; height: 294px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ0cufXC-I/AAAAAAAAAAg/py92a5B1LRY/s320/DSCN1707.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418521338544851938" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Burnt Sunrise:<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ01E4FilI/AAAAAAAAAAo/DaibSpMeaFU/s1600-h/DSCN1737.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ziu2sV63-w/SzJ01E4FilI/AAAAAAAAAAo/DaibSpMeaFU/s400/DSCN1737.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418521756871002706" border="0" /></a><br /><br />To see more pictures, check out the shop <a href="http://fusibles.etsy.com">here!</a> You should check it out anyways, really.

That's so weird. As you have probably figured out, I started it for the small business I am about to start, selling wallets (and other accessories) made out of plastic bags. But I will probably be including some separate projects too.<br /><br />So first an intro to me: Carly. I like to make things (obviously) and my current favorite is making wallets out of plastic bags. So surprising, I know. I also have an obsession with drawing celtic knots. (Well, what else would you do during math class?) Music is extremely important to me. I can play the guitar and piano, I sing in a choir and am taking voice lessons. I adore the Beatles, Pomplamoose, Imogen Heap, Kate Nash, Elton John, and many many more. I'm also a huge geek. I love internet culture, Star Trek, and science fiction in general. I adore British humor, I'm a huge fan of Monty Python, the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Eddie Izzard (thank you Janice!). Some of my other favorite things include: Japanese food, awesome jackets, hats, shiny objects with unknown origins, ThreadBanger (duh), parentheses, internet friends, and interestingly colored plastic bags.<br /><br />Good transition :D My Etsy shop WILL be open by winter break. I have an account, but I want to start out with at least ten wallets. And I need a logo and banner.<br />As soon as I get a good rhythm with my etsy shop, I want to start selling them at a certain store in San Francisco. The owner was impressed with my wallet when I shopped there. Woot!<br /><br />So yes. This is gonna be fun, and I'm really excited! :D<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6074860798256915613-7764400597690425013?l=fusibility.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Carlyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12072237277176898427noreply@blogger.com0
