Marry Christmas

Hi all and yes, it is not a mistake or typo in the topic, because more than Christmas I am trying to find right way to celebrate... Guess what? Marriage!!

For half of girls wedding is a life-dream, for second half-a nightmare. For myself I have this two-side feelling-somedays I am just getting hysteric, but just now it is brilliant, as we found a theme for our party. 
Both of us, we love travelling and we wanted to put this theme into our big day. As I found out now, it is not really extraordinary or any original, however it has another side-I have a lot of inspiration.
Here are some great ideas, if you are a travelling type and getting married as well you might profit from it as well :)

Wedding invitations

That is really important to start with wedding invitations, because this is what your friends and parents will see first and it will give them the idea of party:how formal it will be, what to expect etc. With themathics of traveling you have plenty of possibilities-you can work with travelling symbols as maps, compasses, transports etc
For us, as our wedding is two-national (Russian and Czech) we will use symbolics of pasport with logos of our countries. When it will be finished, I will put it here, the photo here below is illustrational


Wedding decorations

For those you just have so many brilliant ideas, that I am afraid of making my wedding too decorated, because I love most of them.
However one, that I will definitelly use is symbolism of flying balloons-it gives so many possibilities and it is so easy to make it by yourself! Just choose your colors and let´s fly!

Wedding cake

Cake is a big mistery for us, as we couldn ´ t choose yet from all those great tastes. But for decoration we are thinking of something really simple, which can be for example siluets of different monuments, which are "faces" of cities and countries. It will show individuality, but will be simple enough to correspond with any colours you choose for the day-D (or better to say day-W).


For other detailes, I think I will make a report when it is all over. However I would be glad to receive any recommendations or ideas from anyone.

Thanx in advance and cross your fingers!

And the Oscar goes toooo.... Barbie!


Every girl and some boys as well have their childhood idol placed in this sweet beauty with blond hair originaly and later in her dark and red haired friends. For many many years nothing besides the haircolor and clothing changed radically in her appearence:


However Phillipinian artist Noel Cruz decided to change the concept of one-face beauty and started to create new toy world. His repainting technique is very famous in doll community. Destroying the image of common beauty, he is replacing it with faces of real people instead. Each doll is unique, as every man and every woman on Earth. Each re-created doll becomes a symbol of individual beauty. 
Some people might find it scary, some sort of woodoo:) but myself, I really love this concept and I feel it could be rather interesting as well, if the artist would turn his look to ordinary people, not only perfect movie stars.




Other images of Noel ´ s works you can find on his web: http://www.ncruz.com/

Tights-ttoo

Not really appropriate post for this time of year, but lately I noticed fashion tendency to adorn pretty legs with tights, on which you can find different, tattoo-like pictures.
Some express their inner me with ribbons, some as gun instruction on it.
It became very popular accessory, and also really simple to make.

All you need it batch of textile markers, hard paper, tape, tights, which you need to decorate.

The directions I took from designer club on Russian web vk.com:
1. Put on your tights and precise the place, where you would like to put the drawing

2. Draw the tattoo on hard paper, make a cylinder of it and fix with a tape

3. Put the paper cylinder inside the tights and start to draw directly on fabric


4. You can also make color tattoos, but make sure to use color filling, which is used in tattooing.
Mostly they contain bright basic colors likeblue, red etc

It is very important to let the marker drawing to dry perfectly, otherwise there will be blured parts and smudges.

You can invent or find all kinds of puctures, which you can put on and make your personality burst.

Creative glow

Soo, long time no see:) Hope you were missing my new article. And here you are.

Checking some creative websites I found really special idea to decorate your room and make it cosy ...at night:)
Some people put glowing stars on ceilling (like my bf did-it is just brilliant, we have night sky with all constellations. Sometimes after crazy parties I jst keep staring at it. Deffinitely will try to take a picture of it), some people buy lava-lamps. I propose to use things, which anyone can find at home-glass bottles, jam jars etc.

Looks nice,right? And simple indeed. All you need: few bottles or other glass containers, glowing paint, brush and a pair of creative hands.

The working steps are simple as well.

1) You need to wash the bottle carefully and let it dry for an hour or two. Prepare your glowing paint. I saw this type in our art-shops:


2) After it is dry completly, start to put the paint on the inside of the bottle-that will provide more secure background for it and the paint will not be damaged easily.


3) let it dry as well and your lamp is ready. 
You can put the bottle to some sunny place during the day, or if you have bad luck for weather, light bulb will work perfectly as well.


Enjoy your special space glow artefact.
