because i'm not obsessed enough...

just spent a hefty amount on more hair stuff. i bought:
  • evening primrose oil
  • jojoba oil
  • avocado oil
  • camellia oil
  • tuberose fragrance oil
  • rose absolute oil in jojoba oil
  • rose floral water
i attribute this splurge to becoming really tired of smelling like coconuts. meh it wasn't really even that, it was the smell of the coconut oil after it had been on a day that got me, i could describe it as, "old lady with coconut suntan oil," gross. i'm hoping that i can combine some of the other oils i bought with the coconut oil to offset the smell. i also went a little crazy because finding good quality rose products at affordable prices is really hard. at other places i looked at for a little bottle of anything with rose EO's was around $65.00....luckily i found a good place to buy from that carries a great variety of DiY beauty supplies.

so far my hair obsession has been rewarding, although i know it is draining on those who surround me....*sorry everyone*.......

in other more interesting news *heh not* i finally bit the bullet and got back to art and started work on my subtractive plaster piece. i had many reservations about trying out a new material but i quickly warmed up to the plaster as i like to carve and my plaster still has a pretty good moisture content. as for the subject of my sculpture, it is an abstract figure, i'm really thankful for that since it's my first time doing work in plaster but i look forward to trying more challenging things with it. 

blah blah blah.....other stuff to note, my baby sister's birthday party is this coming weekend! it was super fun to buy her presents and i think i went a little overboard. i got her a barbie with an interchangeable head (yeah totally would have LOVED that as a little girl), extra doll head (did i mention they both have crazy hair?), and a bunch of outfits for all of her barbies'. i really loved barbies as a child and still like them so picking out her birthday presents really was a delight for me.

once my new hair stuff comes in and my sculpture looks more like a human being (instead of legs attached to a block of plaster) i will post some pics since my blog is lacking in those lately. but for the time being doll pics will have to do!

both wigs are new and Panda has new eyes in, i don't know how i feel about them.....
