DJ Comic: March Holidays Part 1

DJComic_007

I’m not too good with crafty stuff, but I still like to do it.  Rich is actually pretty good with it, though.  He can keep his hands steadier than mine and he can make some nice jewelry too.

Wow, it’s hard to believe I’ve been doing these comics for almost a year now.  March is the last month for the holiday comics.  I’ll be taking a month off from comics to try to figure out what I want to do with it next.  I still really haven’t decided what direction I want to go with it, to be honest.

Avon: Campaign #1, 2014

Last chance to get Avon for Christmas!  Orders due by Monday the 15th this time!

~RCS

No, seriously, the next order won’t ship until after Christmas is over.

Avon: Campaign 26, 2014

Hey, everyone!

I know it’s been longer than it should have been, but we took a pretty good computer virus to the nutsack (and by nutsack I mean hard drive, of course…also a scrotum) and I’ve been pretty busy working on a new project that I hope to have some good news about in the coming weeks.

Anyway, Mimi made a video for Campaign #26.  Orders are due in by December 3rd, 2014!

Campaign 23, 2014

You know, I’ve just realized that since Avon starts their numbering system over after 26 campaigns…I need to start signifying which campaign year we’re in.  Why do I need to that, you might ask?

Because Mimi’s just put up the Campaign 23 (2014) video!

Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and winter Birthdays are coming up!  You should buy things for the people you love; and even the people you hate, I don’t really care, as long as it’s Avon from my wife you can buy it for whoever and still make me happy.

~RCS

Whether or not you make them happy is no concern of mine. =D

Avon: Campaign 19

It’s that time again, folks!  Campaign 19 ends August 27th, 2014.  This campaign we’ve got some great deals, as usual.  Some of my favorites are in the video below, but one I didn’t mention that I held back just for you folks on the website is a deal on Body Wash.  Not that any of you need it, I’m sure; although showers aren’t really a bad thing.

Pics or it didn't happen!

The shower gels are normally $4 a piece, but they are on sale right now for $1.69, each.  So stock up before they go back up to regular price!

Avon: Campaing 18

Here’s the latest Avon video!

 

This campaign ends on August 13th, 2014.  So you’d better act fast if you want the stuff I talk about.

Avon: Campaign 16

Sorry for missing the campaign 15 video and for the campaign 16 being so late.  Most of June was spent helping my husband make two computer games for a contest that unfortunately we missed the deadline for.   So we ended up putting any free time into those games and lost track of time.  Sorry.

Tekko 2014: Merch!

Now before I start this I want to point out that in the hustle and bustle of everything we lost a couple of business cards.  I’d like to show off who made each item that we purchased, but with the loss of the cards I can’t do that for every item.  If you believe you made an item that I haven’t attributed a creator/seller to, then send me a line using the form on the right side and give me a link to your site or your etsy page or whatever.  We also don’t remember the prices we paid for anything, so…uhh…yeah, sorry on that; next year I’ll take better records on this stuff.  Also, each picture (that we remember the makers to) link to their website if available.  So if you like what we got, and want one of your own, click the pic to get a lookie-loo at their other stuff for sale.

With that out of way, let’s get to the fun stuff!  First off we have this cute little, figuratively speaking because it’s huge, bunny pillow!

It's soo fluffy!!

It’s soo fluffy!!

And yes, that’s one of the ones we lost the card to.  The other one is this nifty cloth bookmark.

We hope it says something like 'Awesome Book' or 'Secret Manga', but it probably says, "This guy can't actually read". =(

We got this nifty faux-flower headband from the folks at Domenica’s Fine Fashions.  The picture doesn’t do it justice, it’s a really nifty looking blue fabric flower.  They also make medieval outfits, costumes, and all kinds of custom-made outfits.  We also bought a lot of stuff from them, we definitely could have blown our entire convention budget on their stall, alone.

On the right hand side of this next one is a star-shaped jar pendant filled with glow-in-the-dark rocks.  On the left hand side is a really awesome idea: A circlet made with wig clips so that you can just put them in barrettes (or such I’m no hairdresser and really have no idea what I’m talking about) and not have to mess up your hair, but still keep the circlet in perfect place.  It has a turquoise-colored gem in the middle, which looks cool.

Every year it seems like we absolutely have to buy something from the A Case of Random stall.  We’ve bought barrettes, ankle jinglies, wrist jinglies, chopsticks, all manner of things from her before.  Always happy with our purchases, the wife wanted another rainbow item (you can never have too many rainbow shinies, she claims) so we picked up some more ankle jinglies.  I can’t not suggest this fine lass for all your chainmail accessory needs.  Did I mention shiny jinglies?

I mentioned buying a sticker of a cop named Dick from the Phoenix Wright series; he’s the dude in the middle, Dick Gumshoe (Itonokogiri Keisuke).  On the left we have Loki from the Thor and Avengers movies (and the comics before that) and on the right we have Sailor Jupiter (Lita/Makoto).  They are all stickers made by one Lacey Shreffler.

And the last thing we bought is another case of ‘lost card syndrome’, which is a shame because the last time we were at Tekko we bought a bunch of Chinese wall scrolls from them which currently adorn my home office.  Anyway, this cute little kitty clutch was perfect since the other day when we went to the theater to see Wicked (which was fantastic, BTW) my wife had trouble carrying her ID and all that fun stuff.  You see, my wife’s not a big purse kind of woman, and ladies pants (and dresses, of course) don’t have very deep pockets, if they have pockets at all.  So a clutch that she can hang from her wrist is great.  This little number was only a few bucks and it has a cute kitty on it.  You can’t really go wrong with a cute kitty, right?

And that was everything non food-related that we spent money on this year.  All this talking about Tekko has me wanting to go back, already.  Hope to see you folks next year!
