Happy 20th Tardis Birthday

So I'm turning 20 soon and I've decided that after going out for dinner and drinks we shall head back to my place for cake and drinks. :)

Enter the Doctor Who/ Harry Potter/ British love party.

Upon decided I'd decorate and theme the party around my favourite things I started researching the Doctor Who side of the party. (I already have decorations from a previous Harry Potter night). I found out something interesting.

When you google Harry Potter Party, millions of photos and posts show up... like so many ideas and pictures and everything!

I figured the same would happen for Doctor Who.

I am either wrong and have not put the correct string of words into the search bar or there isn't a lot of evidence of Doctor Who themed parties. Let alone for adults. I found some cute cupcakes, an outlet store across the ocean that sells Doctor who cups and masks, but other then that... zip. Nothing overly inspiring. I've encountered plenty of photos of the cast and crew and Tardis cakes.

So out into the unknown I go party planning.

I've come up with the following;

TARDIS DOOR over my own front door. "Party is bigger on the inside"
Serving sonic screwdriver drinks (I have found a recipe for this!)
TARDIS Cups

For these I just took blue SOLO CUPS and some white peel stick paper and for the signs I printed those off onto the peely stick paper. Police Box signs were hand done with a Sharpie. Overall they're pretty cute.

I'm also baking either sugar cookies or little cupcakes which will be decorated with the British Flag.

I think I'm more excited about decorating for this then anything else. Well... except attending Leaky Con Portland this summer. <3

Cheers!

Batman Shoes (DIY)

So while being sick over a wintry holiday, I was googling all sorts of fun projects to do once I was feeling better. One of these was DoItYourself shoes.

So after finding about all the wonderful uses of ModgePodge, comic books and highheels I have ventured out to try my own.

Instead of cutting up my favourite comic books, I printed off images from the internet. They worked wonderfully well actually. Just as well as magazine cut outs. (I had the Cineplex one about Batman) So armed with a sponge brush, ModgePodge and a Ex-Acto knife I set to work.

Several hours later I have finished with my creation.

BAT SHOES...
some of the photos were taken while in progress, and the others still have glue drying on them.

But I adore these. Especially for a first try. Next project Potter or Doctor Who themed shoes.
