P3 News

A lot of stuff's happened and i've attempted to blog about every one of them, but have only gone so far as uploading the photos that i now have more draft entries than posts in the past month, it's kerayzy! 
i'll try to wade through the backlog and finish posting some some, if not all, of them :)

-----*-----*-----


These days, aside from my usual daily routine of managing my online store, finishing new commissions, rehearsing, taking care of my doggy mommy duties, making tambay in the Philippine Polymer Clay Guild has crept in the middle of things.

I am a person who sticks with tried and true friends, quality taking a front seat to quantity, but there has always been the desire to connect with people who share my passion for creating. I've tried creating PC groups before, but they never really took off because of a number of reasons, lack of time to manage being one of them. So when P3 came, and eventually soared to where it is now, i was happy as a clam. i finally found people i can talk with, who understood what i was talking about, and not space out the first 5 minutes i start clay talk :)

So, to meet some of the people i usually chat with online face to face is a precious event i look forward to.






Last July 16, the P3 Guild Council met for a dinner meeting in Cubao. The meeting part being a front for the chatting and catching up part :)


The following day, the guild joined a bazaar at the University of the Philippines. i had no plans of joining AT ALL, since i had a workshop scheduled with je that day. but because of  some very convincing words from co-members, je decided to postpone, allowing me to join the event :D

Overnight, I got to finish 9 small pieces-- just enough to say i had items to sell, haha
The real reason i wanted to go though was to spend a relaxing time chatting with other guild members!

Trash to Treasure

Image
Okay. i will not start by saying i dont have enough time to do everything i want, because it feels there never ever will be enough time.  now isnt that just a obvious attempt at fake not-mentioning that i wish i had more time? confused O_o forgive me, it's 3am and i just finished the 1st blog entry on my to do list. those darned fb games are the devil's instrument, i tell you!! stupid bubble island made me lose 1 1/2hours blog time ( and here i was saying there never is enough time when there actually IS, i just dont know how to use it :P) so where was i, really? ah. the challenge. we had a challenge this week with the theme: Trash to Treasure.  It was something really close to my heart because by nature i am a pack rat. i save stuff i think i may need "in the future". sometimes i do find a use for them, sometimes i dont, but knowing they're there when i need them is an odd comfort. 2 days before the deadline, i swam deep into my treasured mountain of trash a...

purpleluggage floral headbands

Just a little info on the floral headbands I just posted. A lot of people have been asking about them saying they look so pretty and dainty but wonder why they're priced differently than most headbands out in the market, so I wanted to give you guys a little peek into what actually goes into making these pretty floral pieces :) I begin by making the petal canes I will use to make flowers. I usually make them by batches so i always have several canes with the same color scheme. my pasta machine, my trusty sidekick When I've made enough canes, i cut very thin slices from these petal canes and make the flowers by hand, building each flower petal by petal. And when I've made enough flowers I assemble them and lay them out on a brass finish headband base and bake the whole shebang in the oven. The whole process ( from making canes to baking to post-curing processes) takes about two days. yep. Two days. So although they do cost more th...
