Flowers Necklaces

I try to made necklaces. The idea came when i saw the rest of unused fabrics. For reference, i seen on other blogs. Basically, i am not a person who likes to wear accessories, except for a gold necklace and earrings which i always wear. Although, i will not wear these necklaces, but still can be given to friends or sell it.

I love to see a necklace with a flower. It looks sweet and cute when used. I want tried to make it. It is easy and the results are pretty good

flowers necklace from old t-shirt and felt

yo-yo necklace
 Okay, time to find a friend, who can get these necklaces

Cheers

Zero

Beberapa hari ini lagi nggak niat banget mau jahit menjahit. Antara malas sama capek. Padahal maunya sih bikin macam-macam tapi eh kok moodnya lagi nggak ada. Sekarang lagi getol baca novel yang aku beli waktu pulang kemarin untuk mengisi waktu. 

Hmm..sebenernya bingung ini mau nge-post apa di blog ini. Udah beberapa hari kan nggak update blog. Weekend ini mulai bingung mau hangout kemana, sudah habis ide tempat-tempat yang asyik, sebenernya sih ya banyak kalau buat berfoto ria tapi ya disitu-situ aja kan lama-lama juga jadi bosen.

Kalau lagi jalan-jalan senengnya cuci mata, terkadang suka ada barang diskonan bermerek, kan lumayan banget buat nambah koleksi. Seringnya sih aku ngincer baju, tas sama sepatu. Kalau kosmetik atau parfum jarang banget, kurang minat begitu. 

Biarpun aku sekarag sudah sedikit-sedikit bisa menjahit tapi tetep suka beli baju juga, makanya lemari itu sampai penuh, terkadang malah ada yang belum sempet kepakai karena lupa. Sebisa mungkin diusahakan kalau hangout keluar penampilan rapi, maklum deh udah ibu-ibu punya anak jadi harus kelihatan rapi dan dewasa haha..

bags : charles & keith, shoes : covet, jeans : cotton on, sweater : cotton on, tank top : no brand, watch : swatch. Lagi ingin gaya santai kaya anak kuliahan
Kemarin sempet lagi ingin banget punya baju animal print, kebetulan ada yang diskon di cotton on, langsung beli deh tapi ya itu tadi belum sempet kepakai, padahal belinya udah lama sampai bajunya agak kegedean soalnya aku turun 7 kilo. Terpaksa kan kemarin pas hangout sama suami anak langsung dipakai, sayang boo!

dress : cotton on, belt : talisman, inner : no brand, shoes : rubi, bag : charles & keith
Karena dressnya agak kegedean sedikit jadinya aku tambahin belt biar nge-pas aja dibadan

Unused fabric into pillow

Happy Easter!

Okay, already very late here and i am very sleepy. So, i will write very short then go to sleep

Last Week was a long holiday here because of the Easter day. I filled my holiday with hangout with my husband and son, and clean my house. My house is small but it takes all day to clean it, exhausted!

I clean the drawer and found many pieces of unused fabric.

unused fabric..messy ;(
but still can be used for something. So here's what i did

cut the fabric into a square then sew each edge
Don't sew all the edge, give a little hole to insert fabrics.

ready to fill
insert all my unused fabrics into it. Filled it up then sew the hole

finished
Now, my drawer is clean and i have a new pillow from the rest unused fabric. Good nite everybody and happy sewing

Cheers

Productive week

This week, i finished 2 refashion t-shirt for my son. I love to give a cute application on t-shirt, so i made something cute for my son.

before  
I draw the tie on my old t-shirt, cut it then sew in the middle of t-shirt. It was so easy and does not take much time

after

And here is another one

before      

This time i used felt to make the application. So, what is something cute to put on the t-shirt? Hmm.. robot! Yes, i decided. So i draw a robot shape on felt, cut it and sew on t-shirt. I sew it by hand, just for you know.

after
 My friend said, the result is very cut and i agree with her^^

Happy Sewing

Cheers
