how they did it

Melvin Sokolsky is one of my favourite photographers and he had me at  ,,Bubble"  :)

Born in New York City, Sokolsky had no formal training in photography, but started to use his father's box camera at about the age of ten.

 

In 1963, he made for Harper's Bazaar, the "Bubble" series of photographs depicting fashion models "floating" in giant clear plastic bubbles suspended in midair above the River Seine in Paris.

As I promised you, here is the tutorial for the second bracelet. As you know already, you have to have patience with this tutorial :) but the result it's pretty good.


here are the supplies:

 Just follow the steps. At first you'll get stuck, but you'll manage to get the ideea. just keep practice :)
 For this one, I use tape and here is an advice: use tape at each 3 cm. That will help you :)

You can use colored thread or you can use one that is the same color with waxed thread. You can see the difference below.

diy bracelet

Hi everyone!


I really missed blogging so I had to do something even if I have  lots of stuff to do-half creative things :), but I am welcoming you in this new year with a tutorial. I have to say that you need a little bit of patience to do this, but I think the result is kind of cute : D


I'm giving you the instructions just for the fist bracelet. in few days I will post the second one too.

here are the supplies:

 Just follow the steps! You can use tape instead of blinder clip.

 Advice: if you are using binder clip attach it to a book or something. it is much easier like this.

Here is tre result. It should look like this.

You need a lot of patience, but in the end you'll get it so

DO IT YOURSELF!

christmas spirit

I didn't go anywhere, but I was kind of busy lately. I had to take care of the children; no,no not my children, because I don't have any yet, but I have 32 children at kindergarten :)  I am kindergarten teacher :) not the maid one but the secondary  teacher.

The kids are soooo sweet! and it's a funny felling because they need all your attention and they take all your energy, but somehow they fill you with another kind of feelings and you go smiling on the way back home even if you barley stay on your feet.

we had a Christmas event and we all dressed romanian traditional  costumes. Oooo your heart melted down  just to see them and they sang carols ...such a magical moment


but today my intention was to show you how can decorate your home for  Christmas.

This items are handmade and you can buy them from me, or ask for some tips if you want to make them yourself  :)



see you soon  :)

bless you

achoo!!! yes, I got a nasty cold and my dear husband took care of me. I stud in bed for 4 days, but yesterday I felt that I m healthy and I cooked something while Raz was working(or smth, but was not around)

I made him a surprise. I backed some muffins!!! I felt like a chef doing this CEF dessert <cheap, easy,  fast =))

But I had to do something new. Is not enough to do something normal, because it expected, I had to add some twist to it, so I had an idea. I made some printable things that I use like little labels. You will see in the pictures.

You think I don't know that is not a big thing...well...I know it, but this way my way telling my husband that I am sooo thankful that I have someone to take care of me and say nice things, make me laugh and make me feel beautiful even if I have a black circle around my eyes, and I snore and I have dry lips and...(you will forget last things that I sad about me when you will close the page :)) ).

Anyway, I am thankful about everything and this is how I know to show it!

thank you!
