Antislip foot socks

I bought foot socks yesterday. They say they were 'anti-slip'. So today, at the hospital, tried them on.
Well, so far, ang sakit sa paa! My toes were already crying about it. Plus they keep on slipping out of my feet!

So.... thought of a way to make them really anti-slip.  I attached a silk ribbon at the back then added a button to secure the ribbon on my feet.  Here are the pics


Hehe I'll test them soon.

Feathered Headband

Yesterday was one of those days, when I woke up & all I want to do is craft.  My craft soul is screaming, "if I can't get hold of a glue gun today, I'll die!!!!" hehe.  I really didn't care if my craft project would be nice or not, would be functional or not, all I care a bout is to do a project using a glue gun. =D

So I got all my materials.

& here's my Finsihed product
When worn:
til next crafting =D

One Bite Iphone Case

I've been crazy with needle felt embroidery this past few days, it started with the Matryoshka iphone case, now I've created a new one!!! With more embroidery!!

This is what I called vector-to-needle felt embroidery! Inspired by vector art of Jerrod Maruyama, turned into needle felt embroidery!

I'm not that of a fan of snow white, comparing to other disney princesses, but when I saw Jerrod's work, I just couldn't stop myself from embroidering it.

I getting crazy with this technique! I wanna do another one!!!!!

Twin Bows

I just saw these bows & I fell in love with them.  So I combined them w/ head turbans for babies


I'm giving these away as gifts to Yuna & Rian! 2 of the cutest babies I know!

I always enjoyed shopping stuffs for babies.  I don't know why hahahaha. Pero nakakatuwa siya promise. Especially if yo're imagining how the babies would look like wearing it.

Owl & Dumpling

I think I was pretty creative today.  Being in boring family med rotation, I think this rotation sucks the life out of me, although the good side, there's enough rest as an intern.

Anyways, I had nothing to do, so I thought I should do the requests by some of my co-interns.

I finished the pink owl iphone 4 case today:

Then I was able to finish MTO of Dr. Fang


I was thinking, when was the last time I needle felted??? I can't remember.  It's good to go back to old crafts hahaha. Well, Dr. Fang requested that I make a dumpling needle-felted sculpture for him.  He wanted steamed dumplings in particular. I only have limited colors of wool available here in my stash.  I tried mixing white, browns, etc trying hard to get that "steamed"effect.  My end product, hm.. I think it looked more of fried rather than steamed.  Oh well, I guess I just have to show him tomorrow if he likes it.  

I just realized I'm using lots of pink today... hm... maybe it's the effect of the valentines' day coming near.  Happy valentines's Day!!!!

Going Back to Felt Crafts

It's been a while since I've sewn. Hm... Now I'm crazy over felt again hahaha. It all started with a necessity. I have an older version of iphone. My problem was that I can't find cute case for it, all for iphone 4! Boo!

So I sew myself an iphone case. I want it to have a hard case, at the same time there's a protection for the screen. So here's my design:
Then my sister saw this one & she loved it! So she requested if I can make one for her. Though hers is ericsson phone. So I made her an owl pouch.

Sneak Peak... MTO: Bijou Watch

Everybody has been very curious of what my felt projects look like. Well here's a sneak peak.... it's Bijou Watch!

Here's a modified version of my Bijou Watch. Why modified?? Because it was modified to suit the request of the client, this design was bought & requested by my classmate.

This modified version is a little similar with my original bijou watch. 1st, they're both watches, 2nd, they're both made of felt, 3rd, Both takes me 6 hrs just to finish 1. The differences... You'll see in the future

Bijou watch is very precious to me, well because this is original, meaning... it has a dirty little secret originally thought by me, & I'm not telling it yet, not until I release it here in multiply & on Nov 28 in the UP AME bazaar.


I even thought of applying for a copyright for this product. Well because I'm a very greedy person & I don't want others replicating my product or even it's dirty little secret. But it's kind of expensive & I realized that the money I'll spend for the copyright is more than my profit in selling 10-20 bijou watches.

So as of now.... I'm praying that no one has thought of the same secret as mine. I seriously want to be the first to release this type of product. Because of financial difficulties I can't apply & pay for the copyright.

Of all my products, Bijou watch is the most precious to me & this is the one which I have the most faith in when it comes to marketing value.

But of course you'll never really know until you release this to the public right?

Anyhow, I always have a backup plan, that if ever the bijou watches will not sell, I'll keep them all for myself!




Hoping for the best.
May God guide & bless my bijou watches.

Materials for Kairi Cosplay

I just bought the materials I needed for the cosplay. Nakakadrain talaga ang divisoria because of all the people. But it was worth it. Actually i don't know if nakamura ako or hindi... The total of all was 1000+ around 1075 I think for everything, the fabrics, the wig, the shoes, the buckle, the zippers & some swarovski, too bad wala na yun size na gusto ko na swarovski so I wasn't able to buy the size I wanted. Titipirin ko nlng yun swarovski rhinestones dito sa bahay.

Actually yun wig ang nagpamahal, kc P450 yun wig, pro yun ang gs2 ni mama kc dw makapal dw, tska yun color similar sa picture, tpos sbi dw ng nagtitinda is washable nmn dw xa, yun d ko alam, well you know naman in 168, wag ka basta maniniwala sa mga seller. Meron dun mga around 100 -350 na mga wigs, but wla yun color na similar kay kairi, either black, brown, or red yun andun, e kairi is like auburn ba tawag dun bsta reddish black.When I was talking to my mom, sabi ko "ma, ok narin yun 1000 na patahi no, sakanila na yun fabric" sabi ni mama hindi no, "magandang tela yun binili natin, xempre kpag sa iba di ka naman bibigyan ng magandang tela nun."

There's a change of plan by the way. My mom told me that wala daw siya tiwala that I'll be able to make my costume right. hahahha. so... sabi niya, magpapatahi daw ako, siya na bahala sa bayad. =D But I insisted still on making one, sabi ko, I'll just make another version, purple nlng, para di madoble. That's my craft soul being stubborn talaga.

I just hope this project will work out para di nmn sayang pagod namin ng mom ko in searching for all the required materials in divisoria. Sana meron nalang 1 store dun na andun na lahat no? pero wala e, or di lang namin nakita kung meron.

Oh holy crap! I forgot to buy purple thread for the purple dress! hm... isip isip... meron kaya yun tita ko??? or meron kaya malapit dito samin???

I think I wanna cosplay Kairi

I've been searching cosplay characters that I can cosplay. Then I came across kairi from kingdom hearts 2. I soooo love her outfit! I mean it's really cute!

So I decided, if ever matuloy ako in participating sa cosplay, I wanna be kairi. I've talked to some of my friends & they agreed to join me in the cosplay too. They're just waiting for my go signal. Why? Because I have to ask permission from my parents, because I'll be spending & borrowing my mom's sewing machine. I planned on making my own costume. Hopefully I can make it & also make it in time.

My target date is on Nov 8, as suggested by vyron. I originally thought that I'll just wear the kairi on Nov 28 if ever I can help sis nuni in selling in the bazaar. But since my schedule is unpredictable, I set my deadline on Nov 8, because on Nov 8, I'm still on semestrab break, our toxic life in school starts at nov 11.

I'm really excited on making this costume. To tell you the truth, it's the process of making the costume that I'm more excited than the cosplay itself. In fact, I haven't played kingdom hearts 2. I played kingdom hearts 1 before, but didn't finish it. I don't have the patience in playing RPGs for some reason.

To tell you the truth also, I haven't tried making a costume or sewing a dress or any clothing... Never tried cosplaying also.... I'm a little nervous but excited =D

Sana pumayag parents ko... tska sana matuloy to...
