Snowflake Window Sticker Tutorial

Feb 9, 2012 by

This craft is one for my across the globe friends who are currently enjoying Winter… or for those of us suffering through hot Summer and dreaming of cooler weather!

I LOVE window stickers. All of our windows are covered with squishy gel stars from Daiso and I have some little mini ones like this kitty that I bought at Camberwell markets. I sit at my little desk pretty much all day every day so looking through a window full of pretty stars brings a little cuteness and magic to my boring days ^_^

So being unbearably hot I decided to remind myself of the Winter with some home made snow flakes!

Quick Craft- Hime Gyaru Phone Strap 2

Feb 8, 2012 by

Here’s another very simple hime gyaru phone strap that I made to use as some inspiration ^_^ Even if you don’t have these exact materials you could easily substitute or just use the base idea to create something much more elaborate :D

I used an old hair tie with a bow on it and a pretty hair clip which had broken.

Painting My Lenshood

Feb 7, 2012 by

When I got my new camera I decided I wanted it to be as customised as possible. Other than deco-ing it I wanted to customise all of the other aspects as well including the straps, bag and any accessories. The first thing I did was paint the lens flower :D

James get consistently frustrated by me calling it a lens flower because it’s such a girly way to say lens hood ;) Now I just do it because I know it irritates him mwahahaha. LENS FLOWER!

Quick Craft- Easy Phone Case Gift

Feb 5, 2012 by

Another random present that I made over Christmas which might give you ideas on something you could make!

James’ Dad is one of the most practical men that I know, he only ever wants practical things for presents. There’s a family story that he once bought James’ Mum a fire extinguisher for Christmas… she was not particularly impressed XD

So this year he asked for a phone case… but we couldn’t just get him a regular one so I set about making him one with his business logo on it.

Take 1 plain iphone case!

Draw roughly what you want the design to look like on the piece of clear plastic that you cut from the case’s packaging. This is important so you get the spacing right.

Draw the design on the case with a Sharpie or other permanent marker.

Hime Gyaru Phone Strap Version 1

Feb 1, 2012 by

I made a lot of phone straps as gifts this year, I like to have a supply of gifts already made which can be given at occasions which I don’t have time to prepare for or are unexpected.

The kind of straps are great for Lolita or Hime Gyaru friends and they are so easy to make!

You just need some pretty random lace/ribbon/flowers/felt/glue/pretty things.

Quick Craft- Clay Rose Tutorial

Jan 29, 2012 by

Nice and simple craft today! I’ve been playing around with paperclay a lot and I’m even going to try to make my own paperclay sometime soon I think.

The thing that I always go back to when I can’t think of anything else to make with clay/sculpy/hard icing is basic roses.

So this is the way I make them ^_^
