experimenting with gold and silver leaf, as small additions to the recent paper jewelry=textile cookies...especially broken pottery pieces will get such 'real precious metal' highlights

the cover to a scrapbook I recently made for my textile design class. originally it was just going to be the image on the front, but I decided to add more muslin and cardboard and paper and convert it to a scrapbook. So fun to make!

among older pieces, a new series of pendants made with textile clay... cotton and hemp become pulp, mixed with glues become clay... I still love this material, enjoy experimenting --

Local market in Antigua, Guatemala.

 

Textiles is perhaps Guatemala's best-known and most popular artisanal activity; It is also one of the most important export products in the country. The most popular fabrics are produced by indigenous women, creating intricate designs with multiple colors; but in general, typical fabrics are produced by both, women and men, women use the traditional back-strap loom with wooden sticks, while men use a big pedal loom to produce them.

Textiles, Metal Wire

 

For this project I was inspired by the sails of the boats, large pieces of fabric that change depending on the wind.

 

I experimented with creating a pieces of textiles that would be easily malleable by hand. I explored knitting and crochet different fabric together, and then I found using metal wire it can be malleable and it would keep the shape. I then explored weaving the metal wire, and it was effective. The wire made the shapes be malleable and strong.

The textile machines looked very well oiled and greased and only showed small signs of rust, but the plastic covers had fully decayed and were decorating the floor

Hudson Holdings has purchased the historic Textile Building and plans to invest $70 million in a renovation.

  Hi friends! Can you believe how quickly this holiday season is moving along? There’s not much time left to shop so if you’re reading this and still haven’t even started, GO!! Well, first you should read this post, then go!  I have a quick question for you that I find really interesting: How many of you have a name for your car?  Be honest! You can totally admit it.  Actually, I just learned that 25% of people name their cars. Can you believe that? It is amazingly funny, I  have never heard of this! What do you guys name them…Bob, Frank, Olivia? I think this is awesome!  It seems like people really love their cars.

  Now that I know this, I wonder If I’m missing out. What would my car’s name be? Is it a boy or a girl car? So many questions and with the holidays right around the corner, I thnk I’m going to have to postpone my car naming ceremony until after the new year. 

  With my new knowledge of this fun car fact, I have a great gift idea for those people you always have trouble buying for. It’s  the perfect gift for anyone in your family who owns, loves,  names, or just drives a car. I’ve partnered up with Armor All to bring you this fun and easy tutorial. The Armor All Car Care Gift Pack really makes the perfect gift all by itself but we’re going to take it a step further and add a nice personal touch. We’re going to be making his and hers colorful tassel and birch slice keychains. Keep reading for all the details on this fun and super easy tutorial.

  

Armor All Car Care Gift Pack

1½ Inch Wood Slices

Acrylic Paint

Key Rings and Snap Hooks

Stencils

Assorted Leather 4×6 Inch Pieces 

  

Start making your tassel by cutting each 4×6 strip in half lengthwise.

 

Next, take a pencil and draw a guide line approximately 1/4″ from the top.

 

Using sharp scissors cut 1/8″ strips up to your guide point.

 

Use your other half of the leather to cut a 1/4″ strip which you’ll use to attach the Snap hooks and key rings.

 

Hot glue guns work really well for gluing leather. For a super strong bond use the high setting and press firmly for 15 seconds.

Attach the 1/4 inch piece to the end of your fringed leather strip. Next feed through the key hook or ring.

 

Form a loop and glue to secure.

 

Tightly roll the fringed strip applying extra glue in the center.

 

Finish off the end with additional glue and hold firmly for 15 seconds to form a tight bond.

 

Use a 4mm bit to drill a hole 1/8″ from the top of the wood slice.

I cut these pieces of white cedar from an old branch in my yard. If you buy your wood slices you’ll usually find birch for sale online and in craft stores. Birch has white bark and nicely defined rings.

  

Finally, paint your branch slices with coordinating colors. I love Martha Stewart Crafts paint. They come in every color imaginable and provide thick coverage.

  

  I purchased my Armor All Car Care Gift Pack as well as most of my supplies right at Walmart. One thing I really love about giving this Armor All Car Care Gift Pack with the personalized keychain is the fact that it really is a gift that everyone will love. Not only does it come in a reusable bucket – and let’s face it you can never have too many buckets! – but it also includes a Pro Secrets car care booklet with $13 in additional coupons! One of my absolute favorite products from Armor All they included in this gift pack. It’s the Quicksilver wheel and tire cleaner.  You spray it on and hose it off. That’s it! no steel wool scrubbing…love it!
