Crafts



These 3D street art are SO awesome! I wish I had the time/patience/skill to do this... especially if eco-friendly chalk is being used away. The process of the beauty washed away with time/rain/weather is also a very interesting perception.

Been trying to make the garter bands by crocheting... but I used too thick of a yarn so maybe I'll redo it tomorrow... Lame! What a crazy-busy day today was!
[Today: Got tuxes for guys, packed to bring over apt in morning, loaded, cut flowers for Sat, made garters, ironed, cut tablecloths, etc...]
[Tomorrow: Pack until ready for school, school at 9:30am- almost 12, "bachelorette-lunch" with some friends, sister's wedding at 3pm, dinner at 6ish?]

Obsessedddd




I've always loved games whether it be gameboards, made up games, tag, computer games and especially all those cool games coming out recently! If only one had the time and money to play it as much as I'd like to! But, of course, reality is right here, right now. Booo..
So I thought I'd blog about some games that I've really liked until now and will probably love!
-Ico is such a wonderful game for the Gamecube and its value keeps climbing up. Didn't realize it at the time how limited it was. The graphics are wonderful, pretty fun play time as well. Some of the levels can be sorta difficult.. overall a game you use your brain more for.
-Diablo II and OMG Diablo III! Can't waitttt. Hopefully, after I finish school so I won't be distracted from all that gaming. Kinda creepy playing at home at night, but Love it.
-Oh yes, the Little Big Planet 1 +2 (Just won LBP2 today at Dave and Busters today, woohoo!!) Need I describe more being a lil sack full of fun and going through challenges alone or with friends?
-Black and White I and II! Simple and you can be either a good god or a bad god. Bwahaha.. how fun is that??

Ideas



Isn't it funny how some ideas that pop up in your head sometimes can be dismissed by others, but later on, it actually is made and you're like.. I totally thought of that! Could've made millions! Hahha, well, not like we usually have the resources anyway. So few years ago, about 4 or 5, I had this fantastic idea of creating a car.. that runs at first by electricity and as you keep going, there are systems embedded in the car that catches the wind and uses it to keep generating the car. No use of water, solar, or costly gas needed to function! The idea is kinda like those windmills that generate electricity but since you move, you make energy. Oh well, there goes my idea! :]

Biblioteca Parque Espana



Since my computer is hating on me and I (and others as of now) can't figure out how to fix it yet, can't post any craft pictures! Currently having a ConQueso help me with this project on researching on this library since I can only work on my laptop in Safemode.... This is Biblioteca Parque Espana by architect Giancarlo Mazzanti in Columbia. Pretty awesome architecture, if you ask me! Inspired by nature to inspire students!
I swear, this is the most fast planned (2 weeks!!) wedding and yet, oddly relaxing and exciting one I've ever been in or seen. :D Oh simplicity!

Homemade Soap


As party favors, my sister and I decided to make soap since we had the materials around for a while now. All we had to do was buy something to place them in (Party City.. woohooo!)

Made them in different colors and scents... yay! :]

Birdcage Veil A






Since my dress looks like a vintage dress, I thought I would make it suit with a birdcage veil.
So I just started working on this veil after going through thrift stores many times to find supplies... here's my progress: First made the flower, added pearl in center. Attached veil to hair comb with thread then attached flower + pearl things to the 2nd veil and then put all together. Really easy!!
Might add/take out some things or even change it.. just a mock up..Love it!
