A year in review. All the costumes I did this year for myself. Even though I was super busy, had health issues, and dealt with losing my best friend, I'm super grateful that I accomplished so many new pieces. I also got my bachelor's degree in marketing, won awards in design, met new friends, and attended amazing conventions! Thanks for being a part of my 2018 <3 Thanks to @a_dot_lien, @punktowntv, @sea.bash, and @ericanderson.gallery for some of these photos. #costume #costumedesign #steampunk #sewing #retro #starwars #qira #autumn #elf #fairy #wildwest #corset #leatherwork #leather #fantasy https://www.instagram.com/p/BsEJSPYhcoQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=k11nlnx8zs4o

Finish my last workout of the year! Once I was well enough from my illness last year, I wanted to start working out again. Started the beginning of this year and went 2-3 times EVERY week :) No matter how depressed, anxious, or tired I was, I made it a habit. I feel much better than this year's start <3 #workout #gym #getfit https://www.instagram.com/p/Br8ZRLbB8Aq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8dkvbs0xy5lj

Achieved a life long goal of having my own vanity table. Just need to reupholster the seat and change out the handles/knobs to match my room better. #vanity #mirror #moving https://www.instagram.com/p/Brs-BUMBzTw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wu3lrr8hdlkf
