Fashion DIY inspiration: Collars!

Hey guys,

I've been very busy with school lately, so I don't really have the time to DIY, sorry!
So here's a small roundup of a DIY I want to do in the future: Collars!
I just chose some pictures that inspired me, I found all of them on Pinterest.

   

I'm sorry, it's not much, but these pictures really inspire me to make collars myself.
I think I'm going to make a DIY of it myself.
I just hope my camera will take good pictures of it.(I don't have a macro lens)


Let me hear from you if you have anything to say.
I hope to see you soon in my next blog post.

Tuesday's Top 10 1-01-2013

Hello everyone!

Happy new year! I hope this year will be great to all of you.
Since the first of January of this new year is on a Tuesday, let's celebrate with a Tuesday's top 10!
I haven't been very active the last couple of days because of Christmas and I had to travel to England for new year and, on the same day, my stepsisters birthday. So it's been pretty busy.
I'll be in England for some more days, so you can expect some activity from me.
Anyway, let's get rollin'

1.

I love galaxy prints, I would love to make these tights.
I'm probably going to use this techniques for shirts too.



   

2.

This is a great idea for a notebook cover, I've got loads of magazines just laying about.

3.

So cute! 
And so easy! I'd love this, it's amazing.
You can also very easily customize them, change the shape or colour.

4.

A lovely idea for home decoration, I've got loads of small plastic animals from when I was young so this is very possible.
Spray paint them in any colour you want!

5.

How to tie the perfect bow?
Yes please! I love this bow, and think of the things I could use it in.

6.

This is just such an easy way to make any cheap glass look classy and original.
Use it on everything!

7.

A cheap but classy looking chandelier?
Why not? And it's easily to customize, just spray paint the beads! 

8.

So easy and so lovely, You can also make fridge magnets out of these by just glueing a magnet on the back!

9.

Such a classy ornament, in this case, it was used for a wedding, but I could see it as a regular ornament or in a Christmas tree!

10.

This doesn't lead to a site.
It's more of inspiration. Take an old book and make a sketch every day of the year.
Wouldn't that be amazing?









I hope you liked my choice of DIY's and that they have been able to inspire you to make some of your own.
Let me hear from you if you have anything to say.
I hope to see you soon in my next blog post.

Polymer clay inspiration.

Hello people,

As you may know, I'm very much into polymer clay, I love to make cute jewelry with it.
So for inspiration I go on Pinterest or other sites and I find some inspiration. It's mainly stuff made by other people or tutorials. 
Obviously I don't just copy other peoples' stuff, I try to give it my own twist. That's why it's called inspiration.
So I thought I'd share some of my inspiration with you, and in the future I might just do a tutorial myself.



Some pieces are of real cakes, fondant or not-polymer clay items because they're basically the same thing.

Anyway be prepared for inspiration or just general cuteness! Click the pictures for the link.

Hello people,

Since school and holidays (We celebrate Sinterklaas in Holland around the 5th of December, it's similar to Christmas) have been making me busy last weeks, I couldn't really blog alot.
And I became ill. That means more time for blogging!

Anyway, here's this weeks Tuesdays Top 10!

Do you remember the first Harry Potter movie?
Then you must remember these adorable flying keys.
The linked site doesn't provide a tutorial but you basically find old keys and print some wings to stick to them.











2.




Just look at this adorable scarf, isn't it amazing!
The tutorial is said to be pretty easy so I might give it a try!
Aww, I want one!

I've always liked skirts like these, now I can make one myself!
Why not?
I just hope they wouldn't look weird on me since I'm pretty small.














4.


Christmas is nearing and christmas DIY start appearing.
Isn't this just adorable?

The great thing about this tutorial is that it can be used as a christmas ornament and as just a simple decoration!
It looks very natural, I like that.

Wow, look at this.
I want this in my house! It's amazing!
You can easily make it from a branch and lot's of paper.

Again, a possible christmas ornament, but also a regular decoration.
I love geometric papercrafts. They just look so simple but stylish.
















9.





I have recently been given a cake pop machine.
So I've obviously been looking up recipes, this was one of them.
It looks simple, yet delicious. This site is actually full of fun cake pop recipes.
