New Handmade accessories

These are my latest handmade accessories.

I made this hat out from scrapped fabric left over by my aunt. The white fabric has about 8 pieceses with same size of an arc shape, it's just nice nice for me to cut it out into semi circles and make it into a hat, however the white fabric is rather thin with 1 layer, so I overlay 2 pieces for each side of the hat. The pink fabric was a piece of fabric I bought years ago at the neighbourhood fabri shop, planning to make dress for my Barbie Dolls, but I didn't start it after all. My poor Barbie Dolls has no new clothes from me for years.

After making my 1st pinky Hime Gyaru style bow hair band, I made a simple black bow hair band for myself to tie my pony tail.

This is my 1st Hime Gyaru Style hair band. It goes well in sweet pinkish or white dresses.

My First Hime Gyaru accessory

Recently, I fall in love with Hime Gyaru stlye and I learnt several Hime Gyaru DIY ideas from internet.

I sourced for materials and hand made my first Hime Gyaru accessory-hand phone strap.

Hime Gyar
From Virtual Japan

Hime Gyaru is a fashion style largely depicted as a cross between Gyaru and Lolita. Combining bright colored clothing, dyed dark hair, long eyelashes, and a series of brightly colored accessories, this fashion attempts to bring out the concept of the “princess” in those who dress in it.

Most famous and started in the Harajuku shopping district of Tokyo, Hime Gyaru is best described by the goals of its prescribers, with baggy hair at the top, curls at the base, dyed blonde or brown, ribbons adorning both hair and dresses, velvet clothing from the top boutiques in Tokyo, and embroidery with lace and pearl. Accessories and jewelry along with cell phones, cameras, handbags, and anything else that might be carried is also bought from the top stores and adorned with the most expensive details.

A Gift for Eve & Mike ~ The Reveal of the Love Contract

Now it's time to reveal the Mystery Love Contract that even the bride couldn't see it until it's time for her BIG DAY!

This is a project done for Eve & Mike for thier wedding on 2 August 09.
This project took me one month to design it.

I couldn't find a nice box that fit the contract, so I decided to DIY! I 'kapok' the A4 paper carton box from office and fix it into a box that can fit the contract. It's actually an easy task but carrying the box back is a hassel, I have to dismental it without destroying the box surface and carry bulky cardboard back home and re-fix them.

PS: A small secret. The skeleton of the Contract and the stand were also DIY from the A4 paper carton box. See how useful the carton box is.

A Gift for Eve & Mike ~ Love Contract Part 1

I haven't been doing art for a long time. Now, I was assigned to do a Love Contract for Eve & Mike's wedding on 2 Aug 09.

I' ve done the project and left some final touch-up and I can only reveal after the couple receives it. By then, I'll upload the pictures of the final piece.

These two pictures were drawn by me, one painted the other with colour pencils. These two pictures will be on part of the Love Contract.
