Weekend projects

I supposedly finishing my DIY spools rack today (something like Megan have in her craft room) but something came out and it's out of my circle of influence. Huhu. The kedai kayu said they haven't yet cut the wood I ordered from them last week due to problem with their machine. They promise to complete it next Monday. So my spool rack project is on hold. Instead of mourning, I move to something colourful to cheer me up! Felts, buttons and ribbons of course!

Buttons I bought from Yoonie (Studioshoppe) really makes me smile heheh! See the big green crochet flower? That's a measurement tape I bought from her too. ;). She really have a nice touch with that piece.

Ok if I may ask... is it normal to have more than 3 scissors in our craft room? There're 4 in the pic and I have another 2 not in the pic. Hoho!

1. Pink handle - To cut felts, interlining.
2. Red handle - To cut papers.
3. Blue Green handle - To cut thread etc.
4. Medium Black handle - To cut ribbons.
5. Zig Zag Scrissor - just for fun hihi (not in the pic)
6. Large size Black handle - To cut fabrics (not in the pic)

For me it's normal eheh! 6 still acceptable. I exclude the rotary cutter and snipers that I have heheheh! Still normal lah kan.

Aren't they gorgeous? I love crochet so much! But sadly my crochet basic is kaput already. Perhaps I might consider to polish up my crochet skill soon. These crocheted flowers I get from one of my best friend, nama die Ms. Ebay ehhehe. And some touch of cute button, of course buttons from Yoonie. Again I promote Yoonie.. ehhehe!

Korker Bows!

What I've been up to lately? Oklah let me tell you some grandmother storylah... hihi. I've been doing some research and experiment on doing korker bows or some people call it squiggly. Frankly speaking I have lost more than 6 yards of my grosgrain ribbon stash just to get the the bows turn out nice from the oven! Consider burns and change color due to too high temperature. So have to adjust accordingly lah. 3-4 attempts jugak ler.

I also been searching the perfect dowels size to get what you have seen in the picture. I went to hardware store non selling dowel. Batang penyapu ade la. I went to art store..only found a tiny size of dowels that usually use by art student to do architecture-model etc. Finally, i went to a store that supply kitchen stuff for restaurant then I found a perfect size of stick for this project hehe. It's a medium size of chopsticks that ppl usually use to fry "chakoi" hehhe. But the most important thing is the size work for me.

This is gonna be the next my handmade product for MoleyGarden. So lucky I have my cute-curly-hair-angel: Yasmin to be the first wearing my 1st ever handmade korker bow.

See the bow's curls and her curls....awww!

Selambak atas kepala!Kan comel tu! Heheh!

I'm planning to make few sizes and the bows to hair clips, alligator clips or hair band. So any takers? Heheh. InsyaAllah end of this month I will upload this item to Moleygarden.com.

*owh been working on few felt hair clip too. Tunggu ya heheh!

Updated 16/7: I found 1/4" dowel at Art Friend at The Garden, MidValley last night. Yep people I know. You can call me crazy hehe!. I bought 2 packets of dowel. 1 packet have around 24 sticks I guess... not so sure. RM9.50 per packet. So happy! Happie! Yippie! Owh! Swiss dot grosgrain ribbon I ordered from ebay US arrived yesterday, packets of button I ordered from Yoonie also already safe in place from Yasmin, I secretly keep in my buttons box. Yep, she already show her interest in my sewing and craft stuff.
