I wanted to make some fabric flower brooches that I‘ve have seen in  m.e 's blog. I didn’t know how so I made my first without using the right fabrics or the heater.

It may sounds awkward, but the next morning arrived in the post an envelope full of surprises. I had won one of Cathie’s brooches on a giveaway! Everything was wonderful! Thank you Cathie!

Well I didn't have the proper fabrics but, having the brooch in my hands and using the tutorial that Cathie suggested, I made some new!

Just Say "ALOHA"....and Swing!

This Saturday me and a couple of friends went to swing party at Aiolis where I met some lovely girls from Swing Riots… it was amazing… everything… the outfits, the hairstyles, the dancing, the mood and of course the music – with beautiful Irene on the decks… my friends get so excited that they decided to start swing lessons!

We also took some gifts...

 

So sorry I had no camera with me, except my phone.

Nostalgia for childhood

As long as my barbie collection - I don't consider myself a collector - is patiently waiting on a carton till I buy the appropriate furniture showcase, I 'll post some pic of the barbies that I own and that I recently found on the web...

"I love you" Barbie

I know what they say about barbie doll and a part of me agree with all that feminine part but, I always will remember with nostalgia the joy that open-ended play brought me and that is why I always be a barbie lover...

Display frame for "recycle plastic" necklace

I 've made this necklace when I was experimenting with plastic. It's composed of plastic bags, newspaper, and I 've embroidered tinsels, beads and the words "Recycle plastic" on one side and my signature on the other.

  

I had to make a display frame for an exibition... I took and old frame and change the color. Had to make it more nutreal than its previous colour. So I painted with a gold spray paint.

...but it needed some enlightening so once was dried I used an aclylic gold paint and gold markers on some spots...

For the backround I just took the packaging from another item (I think it was also a frame package) and added some newspapers with glue, till it got the desired thickness. On the top I used a plain white printer paper.

Glue them all together...

 

How 's that?
