My creative space - punk

The theme for the weekly EST challenge this time is PUNK! hosted by the lovely Nathalie aka Dinafragola.

Long, long time ago I was flirting a little with punk, you know, teenage years, searching for yourself try to do things your parents go crazy about, so my friends and I listened to Sex Pistols and The Clash (oh, I am not THAT old, we were more second generation fans) , a little ska, more of The Cure, tried the outfits, loved the black, no piercings and never dared the haircuts :) Well, small town girls from good houses try to be different, that's all.

So when Nathalie gave us the theme I was pretty excited, I thought of recycling one of the tons of crazy jewelry I had in those (semi) wild years, the big rings with the skulls etc., but yessss, they are all back in my old home, in Hungary...

That is the reason why on my table only the black velvety fabric is waiting for being recycled, all the other stuff, including those lovely skull charms are brand new.

My creative space - roman empire

Today I will make a fabric cuff for this week's EST challenge hosted by Ingermaaike with the theme: the Roman Empire. A little while ago I bought some Jacquard printable cotton sheets, they are pretty cool, you can put them in your inkjet printer and just put you own design on a fabric what you can use for anything you like. Because I didn't wanted to waist any inch of the fabric, I also put on some more images from my mother's paintings for future use.



I really hope I can finish my challenge piece till the deadline considering all the obstacles in the way like world cup match Netherlands against Denmark tomorrow afternoon:)

EST Weekly Challenge - Self Portrait

This weeks European Street Team challenge was hosted by the lovely Dawn from LaTouchables and although she gave us "free hand" in interpreting our self portrait: "For example, you could be your favorite stone, your favorite colours, your favorite materials, the things that are closest to your soul, what you think is the core of who you are...with a twist...make it really YOU!" I took it literally and I actually took my picture and turned it into wearable art and made a fabric cuff.

I recycled an old shirt of my son, added some Japanese glass beads and two dragonflies.

Flickr Favorites - He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not

It's Tuesday so it's time for the flick favorites, nice tradition started by Mitsy (aka Artmind).

The theme is -well - spring again, I just cannot think of anything else lately... so flowers, spring, sun and... oh yes, love is in the air! :)

Thank's Bence for the inspiration, that necklace is just stunning!!

Monday Moodboard - Green

I made a series of new necklaces from polymer clay for the upcoming joyful seasons, spring and summer. I had these wonderful hand painted silk ribbons made by Silk Studio for a time now and I always imagined doing something very girlie to enhance their beautiful cinnamon/purple/pinkish color. So I used similar colored mica clay to company the beauty of the silk and lace imprints, with a touch of cream paint to give it an antiqued look. I am pretty pleased with the results :) The necklaces are perfect for summer dresses, the long ribbon gives you the possibility to wear them in many ways and they definitely have that romantic girlie charm :)



And if we are already talk about warmer weather , I finally found some evidence of spring in my garden :)






So today's moodboard is all about green:

1. Modern Hungary earrings by vadjutka, 2. Felt flowers by IchaSupplies, 3. Olive Green Roses headband by Kirevi888, 4. Green Heart buttons by deepindigo

Flickr Favorites - Orange and More

Monday Moodboard - A Little Bit of Magic

Well, it's not the end of winter yet so I think we all need a little bit of good magic from all those ancient good forces out there, between the trees and rocks.
Maybe they are already waking up and waiting for the spring breeze to wipe away the last bit of the cold.

And off course it's already time to party, in Hungary the "farsang" has already began :)
Farsang is the time between Epiphany and Ash Wednesday full with big dinners, costume parties, yummy cakes and cookies and old folk traditions, like the Busójárás. At the last three days before the Lent like most of the catholic countries the Hungarians will celebrate carnival.

Monday Moodboard - Gold and White

The good old Sinterklaas (Saint Nicholas) left the country, he got enough of the rainy, cold Dutch weather so he is back to his vacation house in Spain, together with his loyal friends, the Zwarte Pieten :)
The Dutch truly have their funny ways when it comes to Saint Nicholas, celebrating his birthday on the 5th December (?), he lives through the year in Spain (?) and he arrives mid November in The Netherlands with a steamboat (?) with his companions the Black Peters (?), ... Well, the Dutch Sint has just as much in common with the Bishop of Myra than the Anglo-Saxon Santa Claus :)

Update: as a request from Vadjutka, here is some information about Ded Maroz, the Russian Santa and his pretty companion, Snegurochka :)

Anyway I didn't plan to write so much about the good old man I just wanted to mention that he has "left the building" so now it's really time to focus on important things like how to accessorize our Christmas outfit.

Let see, how about some gold and white?

1. Labradorite, pearl and gold earrings by Huismus, 2. Xmas earrings by vadjutka, 3. Amethyst ring with a flower and a pearl by toosis, 4. Birdcage daisy necklace by Sumikoshop

Monday Moodboard

I am a little moody this Monday morning, after two coffees still feeling and look like this:

and than I am still not being completely honest :)
So I picked some photos and object for my Monday Moodboard what really not reflecting how I feel.
I chose lightweight fiber beauty, carefully made fine handwork, what only radiates tranquility and light, really almost zen :)

Enjoy! And don't be cranky :)
