really?!


why is it so hard to write? it takes so much out of me. 
if only it was not so difficult...

i'm happier when i try to create something else. 
i don't need to be forced by a deadline to do it. 


DIY: my first bracelet

finally i used the beads i bought in Wellmanson's Quiapo last Friday!
(to know more about where to buy beads, etc. click here)

Eights A Bracelet!
for this project i used:

20 (or is it 22?) gauge copper wire
no. 03 copper wire (very thin wire)
Swarovski
different beads

i have no system of doing things. i like winging it! even looking at patterns 
or reading and watching instructions on Youtube bore me after a while. 
if i rely on them, i would get bored and maybe not finish my project. 

just as it is when you're writing a script, 
if you think of what the critics will say, stop writing because otherwise
 you'll just end up staring at your computer, not able to write anything. 

in my case, the only one i think of when i write is the audience. 
will they watch it?  will it interest them?
 that's my only desire because after all, 
would you want to tell a story in an empty theater?  

anyway back to my handmade jewelry!

this is my rose rings


i plan to make more because i just love it.
but next time, i want to do it using sterling silver wire. 


my fingers hurt but i'm going to sleep happy :)

DIY: pendant

roses are red my love.


so excited i couldn't sleep last night. but i wasn't thinking of my script deadline.
i kept thinking about this business venture and the next step i need to do before i start. 
which is to test the market and earn..


but before i do that i need to make sure my products would sell. 
i'm thinking jewelry is easier to do and has more market 
but i still want to continue recycling/upcycling found objects. 

and i still want to continue making lamps!




i gotta get out of this place. if it's the last thing i'll ever do...

altering a dress

bought this dress online. when i got it, the color was different.
it's more gray than i expected and it looked boring. 


it was too long too. 
and the elastic waist was too high for me 
so i used the seam ripper to take it off.
and then i added a black cloth 
(which i cut from the hem of the black version of this dress)


here's the detail. i'm not a seamstress (not yet!) 
but i'm quite proud of what i did.
it's not easy!


so i have yet to do the back part. and fix the collar and the hems. 
it's still too big for me! and i'm still researching on how to make it a medium size.

making progress


slowly getting there!


does it look ribbed? i made mistakes all over it
but since it's my first scarf, i think i should be excused!
