Did a spot of Christmas shopping at the weekend, and Tim pointed out the wonderfully reflective jewellery in our Matalan store! Well, I just had to snap a shot or two, didn't I?!

'kheta' was her name, my model in the village of ludia. she was in her late-teens, prompt 'n bold, a perfect one. i never needed to ask for a pose! but she will make sure for additional money with every click! this is how i found her, looking at me while clicking.
she was from a harijan family, hence their two huts were build far apart from the others, they all served us with great hospitality, despite of their poverty. it was one of the finest moment photographing and we had their own menu for dinner, very tasty.

Nijum dwip is an island located on the south of Noakhali, Bangladesh. It’s a small island with a population size of 10,670 (2001). Island has strict rules for women. They have to live in shadow. Girls from very early age are thought to be invincible. They will hide them self at any cost and will not come in front of any male person. This little girl was different. She decided to come out when I approached to take a photograph of her. She rebel out against the odd and curious to know the unknown.

L'idea era quella di fare un bracciale rigido con l'anima di fil di ferro da utilizzare come chiusura, in modo da non doverlo forare lateralmente per creare la chiusura....
18/11/07 - This is actually yesterday’s outfit but I seem to be incapable of blogging on Sundays. I did try yesterday but my computer was going SO SLOWLY that I got irritated and gave up. But anyways this is what I wore yesterday when Mr Smaggle and I went out for lunch with our friends and ate yummy gelato. Then I went home and drank champagne and ate chocolates with my parents to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary! And there was an awesome movie on T.V last night. It was such a pleasant day…

Polymer Clay Bangle, somewhat different from my "common" color palette, I like it very much, the contrast between a very dark lilac and the orange - yellow hues is really eye catching
Digital work taking a word piece by Sian Hindle and re-creating it digitally as a bangle, 3D printed in wax, ready for casting.

Seriously, it's knitted. This is the first time I've done anything like this, and I cast on way too few stitches to start with, on a very fine wire. Knitted it up, with a bead or so every few stitches. I didn't bother casting off, I threaded a long peice of wire through the stitches and then pulled tight. Then I twisted, rolling it through my fingers until I was left with a long twist of meshed wire, and chunks of beads. To make it into the bangle - and it is pretty bangle like, rather than a flexible bracelet, I wrapped the strands of beads round a fairly fat tube of rubber, with a couple of cord crimps at each end, and a big secure jump ring. Have to say I'm pretty impressed with it for a first attempt & I'm sure it'll get quicker, but it's taken me about 20 hours worth of actual work.
A Glorious Moonlit Night
~ Whitney Fong
It was upon a glorious moonlit night,
When my eyes first beheld your eyes.
Despite the latest hour of twilight,
Light from the heavens shown done to my surprise.
A fitting beam for such a divine angel,
With shining blond hair and handsome smile.
Could this prosper? Only time could tell.
You placed your hand in mine and we stayed a while.
Not a sound nor descent of sky,
Could distract me from your charming ways.
We strolled 'till the moon was no longer nigh,
If this is all but a reverie, don't wake me from this phase.
For to me love was once not conceived,
But upon this glorious moonlit night, I believe.
*********************************************************
I think that moonlit nights are so, so romantic and give us the the chance to express our desires, especially the ones which come from the bottom of our heart and soul..
So, another week theme challenge jewel - nocturnal. I wanted to create a very intricate bangle based on dark colours, apart from the central part, the moon.
I used meters of sterling silver wire in different gauges and many silver beads of different sizes.
In the middle I've put 2 white agate faceted teardrops - the moon - with a frame of silver squared beads and tiny labradorite rondelles. Immediately after the "moon" there are 2 wonderful faceted lapis lazuli round beads with a frame of tiny dark amethyst round beads.
At the end of the bangle I used two amazing peacock round button pearls.
This bangle is 7.87 inches long - clasp included - and it was made with lot, lot of love!
Hand felted bangle rolled from soft merino wool and embellished with tencel rivulets, delicate free-form beadwork, and stunning red poppies, which add a dramatic touch of color.
Formed entirely by hand, this bangle is adorned with slabs of watermelon tourmaline, placed in a mosaic pattern. It is reinforced with a thick, fine silver wire backing, and pinned down with hand-wrapped wire coils. There are numerous thai silver 5-petal flowers with centers of pink and green tourmaline gemstone beads. My most intricately designed project which took approximately 22 hours to complete

I’ve been always fascinated by art and especially by Impressionism and Art Nouveau artists, such as Klimt. I love his paintings, his choices of colours and of forms and I’ve been deeply influenced by his art in creating this bangle - inspired by Eni Oken’s tutorial (www.enioken.com) – full of warm colour beads: 4 polymer clay beads, glossy and dull crystals, silver beads and many, many meters of 925 silver wire. Handmade hooked clasp. It is 20 cm long.
Bangles are carried lie this by street-sellers through residential areas, markets and trains. A much better way of reaching customers than a fixed shop.
Also worth noting is that some plastic and glass that comes to Dharavi for recycling ends up being made into bangles – though its more the collection, sorting and cleaning that happens here with further production taking place elsewhere.

So it is eligible for the Scavenge Challenge #4 What are you preserving?.... too, I guess? Is in't it Crow? In fact this way we preserve some of our traditions too.
