happy everything...

I want to say that this year toscaberries has become more involved in tabloid nova. After frequent times of collaboration, still I am always thrilled to see my works in the pages.
Today I want to share my latest works with them. I was honored to have two pages in their year end issue, the first is christmas decoration for living room. This was my very first time being a stylist for room decor, I hope I do bring inspiration with the decoration I've made.

Christmas is not always red and green, maybe this year you can try on blue:)
#1 prepare your christmas gifts, wrapped them in blue, blue paper or blue ribbon, combine with silver.
#2 find some blue christmas ornaments, you dont have to buy the new ones, just turns some of the collection into blue and silver... you can spray them, diy projects are always fun!
#3 cut paper snowflakes to make garland, let them snow at your window!

the second is diy christmas gift wrap^^

I'm so happy and thankful for the chance to work towards these and to have a job I'm truly passionate about, this year was great and I hope 2014 will be even more wonderful, amenn!

This will be my last post in this year, I wish you a very merry christmas and happy new year, happy holiday and happy everything!

DAAI TV House and Living

toscaberries will be on DAAI TV again, it's been a long time since my first time^^ but this time were a bit different, they've already move to their new office, much much bigger with a lot of beautiful gardens, that's why this time the taping was taken at one of the gardens.

I had two session last week, the first was a christmas t-shirt DIY tutorial, will be on screen this 24th dec, and the other one was hanger repurpose tutorial... and regretly I have not much picture to share because I'm too busy with the preparation:p

I think next time I'll post the t-shirt diy steps here, it's very easy to make, we can make this tee occasionally, for xmas, easter, birthday or anything^^

6th birthday

my boy's birthday! my baby just grows fast^^ celebrate the birthday at home as usual, cake, present and family picture:)

the colorful giant candies were favors I made for ryu's classmates. Wrapped some toilet paper rolls with fancy paper, then filled them with candies and mini figures, tied the tags on... easy! right?

christmas light

have you prepared your christmas tree? or special home decor for the coming christmas? I've been spending seven times christmas in my own house, and till this year I still have not had a christmas tree:p
It's not because I dont want to have one... but because I always get confused which to buy *lol:p
though I don't have the tree but I've prepared the lights... they were my projects with tabloid nova tv for welcoming christmas. The inspiration are from pinterest... crafty people out there are awesome!
so here I share tutorial in video form, hope they help:)

simplified version

December! I feel like a year never make a post here at my beloved blog...
Actually I'm still making things... and I wish so much to share all of them here... buttt... baby S is so much attached to mommy and makes me have not much time to take picture of my handmades.
I love to shoot my things in the morning, because I need the lighting to support my pocket camera, and I just passed soooo many mornings:p
I want to share my latest sunvisor tissue case today, simplified a lot from the one I made before. This one is for myself, I love the fabric! both me and my hubby are pisces, now you know why, yes?
I took the pictures on my way to the market, in the morning with perfect sunshine^^ enjoy!

paper flower diy

good morning everyone, today is a very bright sunny day here as bright as my paper flower^^

recycled craft

Tabloid NOVA project again, 4 page recycle issue^^

for going metallica...

yes this is quite a weird post today... but it is my handmade, so i have to post it of course^^
a handmade metallica t-shirt! ok, try to write short, it was my husband and my bestie want me to make them t-shirt for metallica live in jakarta last 25th august. I decided to make the design and print it on t-shirt by direct to garment method. the one for my husband was well printed on the tee... but not with my friend's:( I was so upset when I saw the t-shirt... I think the machine can not read transparancy or... hmm... I just don't know...

see? it is bad... agree? I decided to make another t-shirt for my friend because wearing this one would be so embarrassing.

I hand stitched a metallica logo on canvas first before I stitched it to the tee, I thought it was the simplest I could do in one night time.

and I'm so glad she's happy with it^^
