Holy Week Projects

I've been really busy making new stuff to put on my etsy, and i have made a lot of stuff 
but i can't seem to make myself list them! haha
I did miss playing with clay, though. I had a few weeks off since i was preparing for something i've been putting off for quite a LONG time, and I've finally taken the leap!

You may ask what the heck it is I am talking about, 
weeeell, i'll start with a photo and take it from there :)
That's me, and i FINALLY had my recital. An event I've been putting off forever.
I have been meaning to write a post about it. 

Before it even took place, I already had, in my mind, 
written the post-- what i felt, what i would feel, what i would do next.. 
but after everything, I couldn't because I realized words would not be enough.

But more on this on my next post, for now, all I can say is..

Thank GOD!!! :)



So what things can you expect on my etsy these coming months?

Clips. 
Yep, found a use for all those clips i bought a while back.

Here's a photo of my brother wearing the shrek ears--

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

New Canes

I was in a caning mood today but before making more, i knew i had to sort through the mess of canes i've accumulated over the years.  i've been meaning to sort them out since a lot of them have become too hard or they just don't go  with my designs anymore.   i threw a lot onto the scrap pile, a few i kept, while the other i set aside to make into usable kaleidoscope canes Scrap heap! some canes i tried softening up by dunking them in hot water for a couple of minutes. i needed them soft so they wont break when i make them into kaleidoscope canes. quite a few went into this cane covered it with a striped sheet i had lying around from when i made the peacock feather cane. not my current palette, but it's a happy looking cane so i'm giving it away instead :) i really loved how the first cane i did using this improvised technique turned out (the black and white one)   so i decided to make more of
