what I’ve been working on ( a fancy excuse explaining why I haven’t posted since the 8th)+BLOG UPDATE ps. it’s SNOWING!!

Published on by 💫Ava💫5 Comments

Welcome back to my itsy-bitsy corner of the web!-and if you’re new here thanks for stopping by!❤ Also sorry about the long title, I usually don’t do that but I got a little excited 😀 Also I am really sorry I haven’t posted in a while LIFE HAS BEEN BUSY!

So I didn’t really realize that Elysian Artiste has reached 212 followers! I MEAN WHAT?!?! It means so much! Blogging has been a great experience❤❤ Thank you all so much!

Now I have some other updates about a schedule- a blogging schedule! I really need to start planning when to post because I sometimes can get really distracted. really. So I have decided to post twice a week on Tuesdays and maybe Fridays or Saturdays. 

Tuesdays will be more bookish or focusing on a book or book tag, recent reads or some bookish thing.📖

On Fridays(or any other free day I have during the week) I will make a DIY post, art post, A motivational, a lifestyle post interest inspired post, photography post, Hamilton post The possibilities are endless…

Also a giveaway will hopefully be coming out soon… JUST YOU WAIT, JUST YOU WAIT!!

WAIT FOR IT WAIT FOR ITTTT!!!

this is very small but I hope you all enjoy!

My little sister just lost her first tooth so I did a little photo-shoot with her!

ISN’T SHE SO CUTE !

So I recently got back into my wreck this journal! It is really soothing, especially since I strive to make my art look perfect. I really recommend it if your someone who always wants to be perfect, it really loosens your creativity and is relaxing. Here are some pages I have finished.

some of them are a little messy but I had so much fun making them! I am hopefully going to make a WTJ post filled with tips and cool ideas!

also guys its snowing!

YAYYYYY I am excited and worried for winter CUZ ITS SO COLD BUT SO PRETTY!

I can’t wait for more snow!

Thanks so much for reading! I hope you enjoyed this post!

Do you have a wreck this journal? Did you like my photography? What have you been working on?

I figured that I should finally try to write a blog post. Though I’ve been struggling with writing because Mr. Writers Block decided to stop by for a visit. You may or may not remember that dandy old fellow from one of my older posts! heh… not the best person I’ve met. So I decided to tackle the murderous dragon and FINALLY WRITE A BLOG POST.

˜”*°•.˜”*°• Next Monday I am going to TRY as hard as I can to post a Renegades and Wires and Nerve #2 review HOPEFULLY! I’m sorry I haven’t been able to review them sooner!

For almost all of April, it was RAINY AND MUDDY. That prevented us from playing out in the backyard because it was VERY MUDDY. The rain was awfully beautiful though! (●´ω｀●)(●´ω｀●)(●´ω｀●) Even though I love jumping in puddles, it often leads to a mess and ruining one of my outfits and other drama. SOOO I just stopped jumping in puddles! (●´ω｀●)

I love rain! It’s beautiful and just amazing somehow to me! It inspires me to write and I just love snuggling under a blanket reading on those rainy days!

But soon the rain went away!

…And nope, we didn’t spot any rainbows…

Out came the sun and it dried up all the rain and the itsy-bitsy spider went up the spout again! (⚈●⚈) (⚈●⚈) (⚈●⚈)
