Kelli Murray's Blog » Blog Archive » DIY FLOWER CROWN
I recently did a mini “spring-inspired” shoot with Taryn and Shelby of Joielala (which mean a handful of fun lookbook posts will be coming to the blog over the next few weeks!) This is just a sneak peak of one of the looks because I wanted to do a quick tutorial on how I created this pastel flower crown. They make such a statement and are great for weddings, special occasions, or…just because! Below are the steps on how to create one for yourself. I created a large, full crown, but if you want to make one a bit more delicate, just buy smaller flowers and space them out more. STEP 1: Get your supplies! STEP 2: Take your rustic floral wire and shape it into a circle that fits comfortably on your head. STEP 3: Begin arranging your flowers on the base and decide the general placement of the flowers prior to attaching them. STEP 5: Continue the process moving around to the front of the crown and to the opposite side.

Years – Bartholomäus Traubeck A record player that plays slices of wood. Year ring data is translated into music, 2011. Modified turntable, computer, vvvv, camera, acrylic glass, veneer, approx. 90x50x50 cm. A tree’s year rings are analysed for their strength, thickness and rate of growth. This data serves as basis for a generative process that outputs piano music. It is mapped to a scale which is again defined by the overall appearance of the wood (ranging from dark to light and from strong texture to light texture). Years at Schmiede Hallein, 2011 A limited edition recording of ‘Years’ can be found here. Motor controls + engineering for Years v0.2 (not visible in the video) done by Christoph Freidhöfer.

DIY Gold Tube Bracelets I have very vivid memories of walking into a bead store for the first time, almost 15 years ago, and being overwhelmed by the million and ten ideas that filled my mind. I was immediately hooked on the concept of transforming simple and unexpected elements into something beautiful and wearable. That moment was the catalyst for my eventual path into jewelry design and craft – my higher calling, if you will. Today’s tutorial takes me back to my first foray into jewelry making, where I’ll show you how to make two delightful bracelets using the same basic component. Get inspired and have fun! For single, adjustable gold tube bracelets, you’ll need: Start by cutting the knotting cord into 2 12 inch pieces. And now, all that’s left is the sliding closure! . . . and bring the top cord under both the bottom and middle overlapping strands through the loop, into a knot. Repeat the same step on the right side. Continue to make 5-6 more knots. Trim away any excess cord. Layer and enjoy.

Personality Junkie | INFJ By Dr. A.J. Drenth INFJs are “old souls.” Many grow up feeling wiser than would be predicted by their chronological age. Because of their strength of intuition (and commensurate detachment from physical reality), many INFJs report feeling like aliens in the world. INFJs see two people in everyone. To fully understand INFJs, it is necessary to recognize the full implications of their dominant function, Ni, being a Perceiving function. INFJs also enjoy listening to music, watching movies and television, and engaging with people. A signature feature of INFJs (and INTJs) is a deep concern for quality. While Se attends the appearance of things, Ni is concerned with their deeper qualities and substantiveness…While INJs are to some extent concerned with appearances, they are more attuned to the underlying quality and craftsmanship of things…ensuring that things are substantive, thoughtfully-crafted, and otherwise amenable to their Ni-Se tastes.

Photo 37- How To DIY 3 Extra-Cute Pairs Of Cut-Off Shorts We'll put down some serious cash for a quality, plain, white T-shirt, and we'll definitely spend more than the average person on a sweatshirt (especially if they're as elaborate as these). For items we have no chance of creating ourselves, we'll happily save up to shell out. But if there's one item that pains us to pay retail for, it's a pair of cutoff shorts. Don't get us wrong — in our eyes, the combination of that perfect fray, that just-right angled hemline, and that perfectly long rise is like a sartorial symphony. But as seasoned crafters, we know that all that wonderfulness can be achieved with a sharp pair of scissors and a run through the spin cycle. Want even more R29? Begin Slideshow
