The writer says that she loves to collect words that can help give her stories variety and depth. Show Full Text “I’ve learned that we all have different associations with color words,” Sundberg told Bored Panda. “For example the color sapphire is a light blue to me (since that’s the color of the sapphire on my engagement ring), but a sapphire can also be a very dark blue.

Day Bed is Perfect Ultra-Versatile Addition to Any Child's Room - Cube Breaker

The name references the surname of literary classic 1984, and speaks on how intimacy is often lost in our homes. With heavy quilted curtains which fold down easily insulating from sound and light, the bed makes for the perfect napping spot — or fort — when one needs to get away from it all. When privacy is not desired, the curtains easily remove, setting up quickly for a group sleepover on the floor. Source: Goula Figuera via Design Boom. Nathan Driskell. Drawing tool.

Emergency Cookies

No matter how nice the brand is, nothing compares to fresh cookies right out of the oven. Which is always a problem when cookie-craving-hour unexpectedly strikes. You know buying cookies for the moment is just going to lead to disappointment, but baking an entire batch of cookies seems like so much effort. If you manage to conjure up the energy, then you have to work out what to do with the rest once the craving is satiated.

If you live in a full household baking an entire batch of cookies mightn’t be an issue. Lately I’ve spent so much time making fancy stuff that it had been months since having anything simple, like cookies. “What are emergency cookies?” LEMMETWEETTHATFORYOU. SVG, PSD, PNG & Icon Font. BYO Kaleidoscope. Eye Sharpening - Photoshop Tutorial. With this tutorial you can create amazing, bright eyes within minutes.

Eye Sharpening - Photoshop Tutorial

First retouch, adjust levels and do all necessary colour corrections on your image. With a Lasso Tool (L) select the eyes (hold Shift key to add to selection). Hit Ctrl+J to copy selection to a new layer. You can copy the whole layer instead of selecting eyes but applying the filter to the large area like this may take a while on slower computers.

Use Smart Sharpen filter on the eyes, the choice of right settings will depend on the size of your file. Add a layer mask to the sharpened layer, then using a white soft brush on 50% bring back paint only iris’ and pupils to expose the sharpened eyes. Using levels brighten the whole picture and then copy mask from previous layer to select only eyes by holding Alt while dragging the sharpened mask (“layer 1” in the pic) onto the “levels 2” layer. Reduce opacity of the colour layer to make the eyes look more natural. And voilà, the image is ready. Elie Saab.

Using fiber-optic lights his aim was to create the effect of the ceiling having hundreds of stars, all slowly fading in-and-out in a soothing way. Here is the whole process he went through to create this amazing effect, in his own words: I used 1.8 inch painters tape to mark off where the beams in the ceiling were so I didn’t drill the holes for the stars in to a beam. Then I used a staple gun and some kind of landscaping string to make a 1 ft x 1ft grid on the ceiling. I figured this way, the room is 12 x 10, which is 120 sqft, and there are 600 strands, that gives me 5 stars per sqft. Finished grid. Wang.
