Blueberry time!

 

 

Here is what I’ve done recently.

 

Hand dyeing wit natural dye – Blueberry -.

 

 

 Boiling blueberries♪~(´ε` )

 

 

 Straining…

 

 

 Soaking a cotton fabric, what a cute color(*´∀`*)

 

 

 Rinse it and done!!

 

 

Well, the process was not so simple. I had to preprocess the fabric before soaking into the dye and in between the fabric was soaked in Alum.  

 

 

Made a tote bag and some corsages with the fabric ♪ ♪ ♪

 

 

It is a lot of job but this special light purple from blueberry is so beautiful!!

I tried some other natural dyes such as tee, onions, basil and so on.

The article about it comes up soon:-)

Yellow Dress and …

 

 

Simple A line dress.

The fabric is yellow gauze which is very light and comfortable.

The length is a bit short for my usual style but I feel like wearing a short skirt in this summer!

 

 

 

Accessorized with a yellow clutch by YUKULI

and yellow beads bracelet which I made ages ago.

 

Is it too matchy matchy!?

My Neighborhood!!!

My favorit place, ‘Engelbecken’, has become greener!

It is a Pond with a few turtles living inside and Cafe next to it.

It’s very nice and relaxing.

↓This photo was taken in February.

ohhhh, it looks so cold and dark. I don’t want to go back there.

Whole pond was frozen and people could walk on it or even ice skate!

 

Ummm, I can see the construction site on the back hasn’t processed much…

DIY Clock!

 

I made a wall clock.

↓     ↓     ↓

 

It makes me feel good that I have something which nobody has!!!

Today, I want to show you the process how I made this clock.

 

For the clock face, I used a canvas.

I took the hands and the movement from this ikea simple clock.

It’s very cheap, so no regret!!!

 

I used two different fabrics. So, sew the fabrics and make them to one piece.

 

 

Fold the fabric around the canvas and  attach with a staple gun.

 

Make a hole in the middle of the face and place the movement. It’s better to glue the movement a little bit onto the back of the canvas, it helps it stays properly.

 

Attach the hands on the front, and it’s done!!

yey!!!
