This hue, clearly I am not over it. I continue to find ways to incorporate pink anywhere. Just for example my last post at Instagram was gripping with pink and A Beautiful Mess featured it! Clearly it is not a wrong decision after all, right? In fact you should have already have your pink paint and brush ready on your work table. Let’s go! The inspiration for this project came from this lovely eyelashes and cactus mug that I had made earlier! So thought why not put that to another good use. I am particularly lousy when it comes to jewelry and all that jazz, it was time to box it in style.
You bet I did not use liquid copper gilding that would have been difficult and messy, not to mention the shiny appearance would be missing from them copper eyelashes. To know more on what materials I used to make the eyelashes and for further instructions click here.
Happy crafting:)
Probably, my first heart-felt post that I’ve written. Things have been changing in such speed I couldn’t gather myself to accept and go through it, let alone let you all know. My absence mainly in August was part in due of shifting base from UAE for Turkey. It has not been easy, I’ve lived almost my entire life there and I certainly do feel homesick as I write. Being a private person, I may not be able to share the reasons for our migration, but I can conclude that things were not going to work in the near future. Sometimes life puts you in difficult position and you have very little choice but hey that’s life, right? I’ve only recently got our wifi system set and the projects that I will be sharing were completed before I made it here.Needless to say, a lot of exploring must be done before I could know where to get my DIY project supply and get back to making. Meanwhile, also learning to read and write in Turkish. Not to forget, I had to give away my plants at the last moment to neighbor and friends! I must say I was quite attached to them but I’m glad that I can look back at almost any past project and cherish those sweet memories ( I sound such a loner but I promise I do have friends lol )
Summer has neared its end and I can already see a couple of autumn related projects popping up in my feed. I instead bring you wonderful glass bottles transformed into vases for the remaining few ranunculi’s out there. For this project, I made use of kefir bottles that I had been enjoying and let me explain this. As a crafter, I don’t see things as waste, it goes through some analyzation before it ends in garbage, if its unlucky. The color may have been a major put off but the shape was more than perfect for a vase, so why not? I love how a can of spray paint makes a huge difference and seriously who could tell what they looked like before. If you want to hear it from me stock spray paints like you do for your pantry. Also, slight interruption there are only 4 days left for the voting to be closed, if you didn’t know yours truly has been nominated for Amara’s “Best International Interiors Blog”, vote
Till next time happy crafting
