Thing a day 28

I cannot believe this is the last day of the month and brings "Thing a day" to an end. 

Congratulations to all the participants!! 

It was a fabulous experience. What I really liked about it was, for a change I was not complaining to my self, that "there's not enough time for art/creativity". 

I just tried to make something every day, and it was very satisfying. There were days I missed there were days I covered up for...and I am glad I could reach the end of it. 

My thing for today was after months and months of procrastination today I finally took out the recycling. It was a big deal...(really..!!)

And then with whatever limited time I had I made this drawing of mermaid, holding the frog. Clearly she plans to kiss him...!!!

I will color it..someday...sometime...

From a plain terracotta pot to green with polka dots pot.

I took inspiration from one of a post from "Thing a day"...

This is one of the few plants I have. I literally have a black thumb. Also there's not a lot of space around me to have plants, and definitely not enough light.

Though what I really know is I luv having plants around me, and they make me happy.

And my choice of plant is-which says, water sparingly every 8-10 days.

Thing a day 23

Bookmarks made from "scrap book paper scraps"...(how do u say it..??)
These are also laminated. Making them was pretty easy, following are the steps :

Paste snips of scrap book paper randomly on a card stock or in my case water color paper. I also colored my base water color paper.


Make an outline of the snips, I also added these stitches like lines, gives a dimensional effect.

next step is to laminate it, which will seal the surface. Use a thick transparent tape. It should be two times broader than the width of the bookmark.

Length wise wrap the tape around the book mark.



Trim any excess. Make as many as you want...!!

Threader earrings

I know this is a scary close up of my ear, but I wanted to show my threader earrings. These are awesome. I have been wanting to have one ever since I knew something like this existed. As you can see I have three piercings, which was the worst experience of my life and I refuse to talk about it. And given a choice will I go back in time and do it again...? yes. Though I will not get them any more. And hence wearing something to keep the piercing open. The best part of these ear rings is, they are sooo comfortable. Earlier I had small ring in each piercing, and it caused great discomfort specially when I wore a woolen cap. And not to mention the discomfort while sleeping(which I was almost use to).
These feel like wearing nothing at all (in my ear...lol).
So from now on, I can wear the fancy/uncomfortable one's occasionally and may be these for everyday. I can see this as a beginning of a collection of Threader earrings.
