DIY: Geeky, Breaking Bad Valentines!

Happy Valentine’s Day! Because this year we’re pinching pennies, Jon and I agreed not to do anything huge this year. Typically I load him up full of candies and sweets, and we go out for a fancy-shmancy dinner. One Valentine’s, he surprised me with a limousine, and swept me away to an eclectic cafe downtown!

So, in light of our budget-conscious Love Day, I crafted Jon these cute and geeky Breaking Bad themed Valentines! Tutorial + Template below!

New Hair!

Sorry for the horrible webcam quality/ no make-up, but I’m excited! I changed my hair color! I’d been rocking a purple dip dye forever,and was wanting a change. So I chopped off the purple section (which was getting scraggly and unruly anyways), did a once over with a box dye in a dark blonde, just a couple of shades darker then my natural color. And finally, I dyed the tips with a diluted mixture of SFX dye in Fishbowl for a pastel-y turquoise fade!

KimmiKillZombie’s Fan Favorite Posts of 2011

I’ve never been big into the New Year’s hooplah. Sure, I like getting drunk as much as the next person, but New Years kind of marks the last ofthe fun until summer, which usually dawns on me when I’m  stumbling through my purse at 3:15 a.m January 1st, trying to get out of the cold and into my warm, de-drunkifying bed.

But, a New Year brings a fresh outlook, a new perspective, and for some, motivation. So, let us celebrate this momentous changing of years by looking at KimmiKillZombie’s Most Popular Posts of 2011, as dictated by YOU!

Christmas Tree!

We got our tree last week! We kind of went overboard picking out a 9ft douglas fir. Even after they cut over a foot off of the bottom, we barely fit it into the car. Once we got it into our apartment, we realised the top needed to be chopped off before we could even stand it upright!  Whoops.

I apologize for the lack of posts on the blog. I’ve been working a lot, which means any time I have at home I’m asleep. I hope to get back up and running at full speed again in the new year.

I’m still posting daily on Tumblr, and sharing the occasional tidbit on my twitter. See you there!

My Halloween, 2011!

For the past couple of days me and the Bad Cat have been packing away our Halloween decorations. And it’s so depressing. I spent my Halloween rather relaxed this year; handing out candy for the first year in our new apartment, and watching horror movies (and having a few cocktails) with a few friends.
