The weather has kept me inside all day today. Though there was a patch of sunshine in the morning the rest of the day it has stormed and howled and thrown torrents of rain at my window It is warm inside my palace though and as I sit and sip my cinnamon tea I feel sorry for anyone who must venture outside on such a day.

To keep myself busy I have been writing letters and emails, repairing some damaged items and sewing myself a new pair of wrist cuffs. When Mirai and I were cleaning out the sewing room recently I found this gorgeous cotton lace and with a little elastic and ribbon transformed it in to some cuffs. The ribbon is interchangeable here I have the pink velvet threaded through but later I changed them both to white satin and I will probably keep them that way for a while.

I feel the inclination to do more crafts lately. I think I might make some more jewelry and possibly start on some lolita nail tips. I have to be careful to save my pin money though as we have a BABY the stars shine bright group order coming up and I really want a couple of items to complete a hime-lolita coordinate of mine.
