Oh no!

after going over some crafty websites/blogs i found something that made my heart die a little.

Here!

I cant not believe he killed himself, after some reading, I found out it was because he mother had died 10 days before hand.
ahh! i just loved his work so much his dresses and hats and shoes were one of a kind.
I know for a fact while watching a Lady gaga video she loves him to.. like to have a lot of his work on.

I still love his work and will keep loving it, hes gone down in my book as an artist not a fashion designer.

and really one day i wished to own one of his dresses :( i guess now thats never going to happen because for one thing the price will go right up because of his death and the fact that he was so good at what he did.

detail is everything.

Bottle painting

okay to start off with i got an old glass bottle, painted it white with 2 coats of acyclic paint.
i then picked a painting i wanted to do on the bottle.

i got out my paints and Q tips and went to work. the end bottle turned out pretty good :)
this is an easy diy to do nd this way if you liek me and liek random bottles around you house they can all be different.


since most acrylic paint is shiney when it drys i was going to leave it but i use oil pastels on my booble to help blend the colours. so i just sprayed the bottle with some hair spray.
this way the oil pastel doesnt move!.

DIy necklace + flower step by step

okay! here is a step by step on teh flower and necklace i made today!
first i took a piece of off cut from some jeans and cut it like so

i took the end piece and rolled it.

i then took the random offcuts and cut them into two so they were smaller.
(but if you making a bigger flower you can use a hole piece)

Then you roll the fabric around the "bud".

here i folded the ends of the "petals" to teh outside with some hot glue.


hot glue the other "petals" around the sides pinching as you go, when you pinch teh area with the hot glue it gives a ruffled look.
All done!
you can add a button or something in the middle to style it up i guess.

take a plain a necklace charm, holder.. and hot glue it up!

stick the flower onto the hot glue and wait for a while.. if your like me and use a metal one this can be very hot.

and all done! :D
new necklace!
