.*☆Reiko's Tumblr☆*.

Hi everyone! I hope you all have been well :) It's been quiet once again on thus page and I just want to update with what's been going on: just busy! The holidays are here and I have been busy all around but it's only during my down time that I can relax on some fun crafts as well as focusing on opening Atelier Reiko, my new craft shop, in January! Pretty exciting stuff to look forward to! I'll post more soon in my spare time, but for now, enjoy my new perler ornaments for me and Mihoki! ♡ #holiday #penguin #atelerreiko #perler #perlerbeads #perlerart #pastel #kawaii (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrFcvOyhWNn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1twlegltirvg2

Happy New Year!! This is basically what my 2018 will be all about!! First convention of the year will be OSU MiniCon in Norfolk, VA! #cosplay #cosplayer #cosplaylife #truestory #storyofmylife #makeallthethings (at Virginia Beach, Virginia)

I made my brothers Super Mario PJ pants for Christmas :) I'm glad I figured out what to make out of the fabric I purchased last year and it's something they would love ☆ #merrychristmas #joannfabrics #sewing #nintendo #supermario #homemadegifts (at Virginia Beach, Virginia)

On Friday of Anime USA, @rurounichan_cosplay and I had lunch at McDonald's and talked about the people we were looking forward to seeing, including our dear friend Ken of Yenra Photography (@yenra). To our surprise, on our way to CVS, almost like magic, we ran into Ken as soon as he arrived from the metro! And before I knew it, I spent the majority of my afternoon with him, catching up and enjoying wonderful company. Thank you, Ken, for being such a wonderful, talented, and supportive friend. I have learned a lot from you and your company was one of the highlights of such a relaxing convention experience - friendscon! And as always, I look forward to seeing you next we meet! ♡ Dress is by @koalaartdesign ♡ #animeusa #ausa #animeusaconvention #yenra #yenraphotography #koalaartanddesign #supermario (at Anime USA)

Last night after the Masquerade I realized I hadn't taken a full shot of my Saria cosplay! I'm safe I forgot to pack my belt and fairy necklace but luckily many of you recognized who I was! Photo was taken by our Zelda of Amulet Cosplay :) #nintendo #loz #legendofzelda #saria #kokiriforest #sageoftheforest #sariassong #cosplay #costume #green (at Anime USA)

Day 2 of Anime USA and I'm with Fueled by Coffee for Masquerade Rehearsal! Manu of you have been complimenting on my Evangelion Mari Plugsuit kigu in the last couple of days - I made it in a Weeknd a couple of years ago! I will soon be making kigus to put in my shop ^-^ ♡ #ausa #animeusa #animeconvention #kigu (at Anime USA)

Phew it's been a busy but productive Black Friday! I bought fabric, games to last me for days, bought more bubble tea and finally started looking through my storage unit to see what I will use for my new crafting shop opening next week, and what I will give for donation!
