I will be taking a custom order vacation for a bit, but I'll probably open custom orders again at some point. Maybe during spring vacation (March) if I'm not traveling and don't have anything else to do...but I may be taking a university course, or traveling.
EDIT(March 20, 2012): custom order vacation extended until...the spring. Maybe May-ish.
I'm in the midst of a hobby war. I have too many of them.

kanzashi took the main spot in my life during my college days (lol, that makes it sound like it was so long ago...how many months ago was that?

) because it was fun, interesting, and at least supports my art habit (and the occasional grocery run), but now I kind of want to play with other hobbies...
But I will always love fabric, and kanzashi, so I'll never be gone forever.
I'm going to finish the custom orders I have (3 Chinese New Year dragons, wheeeee....!), and then go to work on sculpting, writing, reading, painting and drawing in my counterpart's place, studying Japanese
read: actually, reading novels in Japanese, for the time being...shortly to be studying for JLPT 2..., and you know, going to work. ^_^V
Anyways, just a heads up that I'll be slowing down again for kanzashi.
Thank you guys for your support!
