Resolutions for 2011

Since this year is going to be a turning point in my life, I decided to think of some resolutions for 2011. I will graduate from high-school and try to get into university. I'm planning to apply for two universities in Vienna that both have to do with fashion design. I want to build up my own life - moving away, starting a new school/university and so on. Somehow I'm really excited about it but on the other hand I'm a bit scared. Anyways I decided to publish my resolutions here so I won't forget about them!

1) Study more
I want to get better marks in school and successfully pass my leaving exams.

2) Lose more weight
I've lost like 10 kilos in the last few month, which really boosted up my confidence and self-esteem. I want to lose 10-20 kilos more in 2011 so I can wear whatever I want to and feel good~

3) Sew more
I will do more sewing projects. I want to sew some more Ouji-esque clothes for myself and do some more Lolita clothes and accessories. I also want to sew more for my BJDs and Pullips.

4) Do more Deco-stuff and set up a shop
I want to expand my range of products and try more realistic sweets. I also want to do more jewellry with pearls and lace.

5) Draw more
I realised that I did not really draw that much in 2010. I only did fashion designs. I really want to draw more at home and also try to paint.

6) Blog more
I want to update my blog at least twice per week! I'll always think of stuff to blog and write about~

7) Get accepted at University
This is one of my biggest fears, to be honest. I'll try my best to get accepted to university and I will start as soon as possible with the projects to hand in!

8) Get my new life going
I want to make new friends in Vienna and also stay in touch with all my friends. I also want to be able to find a nice,cheap flat, cook for myself, keep the household and find a part-time job in Vienna.

9) Go to more conventions/meets
I want to attend more meets and conventions to get to know more people. I also want to make up nice coordinates for conventions and meets.


It's quite a long list but I definitely want to achive those goals.

So that's it for today. Take care~~
I wish all my followers a Happy New Year!!

I want to fill myself with sweet things only..

Wouldn't we all want to do that? Well obviously we can't because we'd end up looking like pigs.

Anyways. Here's the promised post! ♥ ﾐ(o*･ω･)ﾉ Recently I did some more Sweets Deco stuff and I finally got around taking pictures today. I also tried macarons for the first time! They didn't turn out as I wanted them to but they're still okay I think. Let me know what you think!

Hello my dearest blog-readers! ♥
I'm sorry I didn't post in such a long time. I really felt guilty and was looking for stuff to post! Now I've got 2 quite interesting things I can post about!

I'll start with a BJD topic~

Recently, while browsing through my tumblr dashboard, I saw some really nice looking Lolita-ish dressed BJDs and I figured my BJDs don't even really have any Lolita clothes. Just Lolita-inspired ones~ As I have holidays now, Merry Christmas btw~, I took some time to sew a nice dress for Rielle. My intention was actually to sew a dress to try tea-dying but this experiment kinda failed. I tried to dye it with strawberry-vanilla-flavoured tea but all the colour faded away while drying..
Anyways here are the pictures:





You might recognise my love for roses, pearls and bows~

Now here's a spoiler for the next post! ♥

Thank you for taking time to check out my blog! ☆ﾐ(o*･ω･)ﾉ

Deco, deco

Good evening!

I thought I'd share some of my deco-sweets work~
Sadly school kills me at the moment.. So that means I don't really have time to try out new stuff and stock up my goods. I'm thinking of opening an etsy store but I don't really know if I'll be able to handle all the shipping and handling while school. ｍ（．＿．）ｍ And in addition to that I don't know if people would buy my goods..

Here are some samples~


Heart-shaped choco cookies!

So I decided to make my own blog.

Okay so.. Now I am going to introduce myself.

My name is Patrick and I am from the little country Austria in Europe!
I've got several nicknames like Pat, Pato, Pacchan or just Patrick~ Just call me whatever you want.
I attend a school for fashion and design and am currently in my final year! After that I'd like to stay in fashion business and study fashion design in university.

Even though I don't have much freetime due to school, I've got loads of hobbies. I love drawing, designing, being crafty in general, doing deco-sweets, sewing, collecting dolls and toys.
My major interest is probably Japan. I can't get enough of it! The fashion, the culture, lifestyle, food and basically everything~

My biggest dream is to have a small shop in Japan where I can sell my handmade goods and 2nd hand clothes.

I'll try to update this blog as much as possible and I'd be happy if you'd follow my blog!
