Project 2

Again from company this project is to decorate ad customise shoes:

I would like to decorate my own shoes like this, but the would have to be a fairly plain shoe, that I felt needed jazzing up.

However like any other girl I buy what I like. Though I might not always make use of it, a habit I am stopping now rather than later.

The idea of reuse and recycling is very attractive to me at the moment having just emptying old and broken jewellery to be re-purposed.

I think the most likely time to make use of this project will be Halloween and any other upcoming fancy dress parties and events. Unless you want a one off item.

Gold and black is a definite winner. but I love purple if I found some wonderful shoes in a beautiful purple maybe purple velvet - with deep blue decorations could make some very unique shoes.

Tell me if you've tried this, Id love to hear the results.

Project 2

3 week easter!

Well I am at my boyfriends for two weeks out of three I have off, from University. Despite teachers saying the would not set me work I've got it, but its something interesting and worth doing. I've got to draw a collection, I have chosen jewelry because it is easy to transport and  have a lot of variety and some from over 6 years ago, despite only being 19 years old.
I have limited materials but plently of styles of drawing  and things to focus on.

I also  have some good projects from Company magazine to share. From capes to cutomising or items from scratch.


Now seeing as its just so cold here in England, I am lent towards posting this simple cape project:

I do fancy aking one myself, but the fact so few people - if any- wear a cape today. It is not something I want to wear to stand out.

But I would like to sell my own made capes, with customised details (if u have any ideas, please share). But I know unless there is a trend for them they won't sell.


I would be curious what I would make for myself.


Is this something you are interested in?
Should I keep on posting these articles?
If you have a try at any of these projects I'd love to hear what you think of them?

3 week easter!

Its been a week

..................... Well its been a little while and what have I done. Alot but not at the same, I havent done anything to my etsy and forgot to pay my rent (not good), failed to enter a competition my teacher wanted the whole 3 years of students to enter ( - as a result I couldn't get there attention for long enough to complete everything, I now have info to enter next year though), did a lot of printing and dying fabric, and I've found someone interested in my CV! I might be getting a placement.
This is really exciting I can't wait to see what I could do and see what I can really offer someone who works in the industry.

As I'm helping to organise a Youth market within a year, I have to write an article for pubilicity, something that as a result of the local maazine not getting in touch, I have very little tie, deadline wise. I am not happy with them and could have had 5 days more to do it! I thought being a magazine emails wold be checked daily. But now its down to me, wish me luck I'm gonna try to finish it today.

In relation to this blog I have prepared a few items to post, projects, and have failed to photogrph my daily clothes selection, even though I went out the other day. I also have no where to photograph these photographs either, no where nice in my home or close by. I best get thinking really.

I really didn't realise it had been a week, but I guess its quite easy to do since Ive stayed back a lot this week.

Its gonna get difficult since I have facebook, etsy blogger and now want twitter something I have never used before.
