Wings rings



Few years ago...
Necklace broke. The point is, I really like that necklace, so (as you assume) I didn't want to throw it away. As I bought hundred rings I decided to twist that necklace into a ring.

This is how I did it:

1. Paint the free rings in any color you want to. I decided black.




2. After it's dry, glue your pendants on the rings (I used two-part epoxy adhesive for metal-but I think that normal two-part adhesive will work just fine).



3. After 1 day It's finally done!

I'm back with new accessories

Hello, I haven't been here a while. It's mostly because I've been pretty busy with studying, so my creative side has been (little bit) aside.Here is something I've been doing for 5 days (not actually 5x24hrs). Most of the time I was (nail)polishing computer chips (that purple and yellow things), it needs some time to dry. 

Everything you can see (on rings) are old parts of computers, video recorders and various other old electronic stuff. As you could already saw I don't really like to throw old parts in garbage, I really like to recycle. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, eyes and buttons on these little guys are made of beads. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything that small to have its part =).




P.S.
Do you remember keyboard bag? I hope so you do. Because it doesn't exist anymore, I kind of get bored of it, and decided to make totally new and modern bag =). Hope I'll find more time to sew it completely =).

Keyboard bag!

After almost 1 year I finally made my keybord bag.

Little story:
Last year in Burda magazine I saw really cool pink handbag. Like these in picture above. Do I need to say anything more?! As you probably know me, I was amazed by it and ofc decided to make it. It definitely wasn't easy assignment. After finding 2 keyboards and radical cleaning them, mostly because they was very very dirty I finally starded doing my handbag.

On my journey I had a lot of problems there are some of them...

First: Not enough keys. But that didn't stop me last year in making it.
Second: A lot of keys (but definitely not enough) and pulling plastic parts (on the under side) away.

Then I stopped, that was definitely enough for me. And that project waited till four days ago...


Third: When I finally decided to make my bag, I had to start doing it! So I started where I had where I stopped last year, pulling those plastic parts away. This time, I took "easier" way, cutting it with saw. What else to say then that it was exhausting and I got three calluses!
Fourth: When it was finally finished (I mean cutting plastic under the each key) I had to solve it down, and control every single key, turn it right way or just put it down. After solving my "puzzles" I finally saw that I hadn't put it on glued tape, oh NO!!!
Final disaster: My sewing machine is broken :(

Anyway here are pictures how I did my purse / bag, and it's not same as these above bags, it's much different, but it has much more space (for notebooks and other stuff):

















Ta daaa.....

Finally my Kindle case is finished

Hello people! Before few months I bought Kindle WiFi, and ofc I didn't buy original Kindle case. After all I am an artist, kind of... Anyway here are the pictures how I did it.

Step 1:
You will need harder paper or plastic or anything that is tough (2 pcs) I used cardboard. Here you cut all unnecessarily parts from that cardboard.


Jeeey we finally have 2 parts, it wasn't that hard?

Step 2:
Now you need fabric.  be careful, you have to cut 2 parts, one for front side and one for inner side. so do that. Like I did here:


Step 3:
From the rest of the fabric you have to cut stripes like down there and place them between 2 sides of fabric (in step 2).



Step 4:
When you are finally finished , you have to reverse it and make bag like in pictures (down).




Step 5:
When you're finally finished with sewing you can also look other variations of Kindle cases.
Hope you like it!

Wire pendant

Last year when I was in Germany I bought this stone called The Gold Stone.

Lady in store told me that it has magical powers, but it's not what made me to buy it. Its beautiful purple colour and a lots of stars (shining dots) had and have magical power over me... Whenever I wore it I feel happier.

Haha, it's not exactly that, she never told me what I told you, and I bought it only because it is beautiful.


Hope you like the pictures, I took it in Pula this year!



the pedant is made by me. It was pretty hard to wrap that wire mostly because its tough and sensitive (if you enlarge picture you will see how wire looks like).
