I Need Cherries! Posted on 2 May 2012 and filed under Miscellaneous. This post is also available in: Croatian Cherries should have the main role in some things I am making these days. Search in nearby craft shops haven’t brought any fruit, neither cherries nor large red beads that I could use as cherries. But my eyes got stuck on the polymer clay, and I reminded myself that I often state that everything you need you can make yourself. I haven’t done any clay or similar craft since the kindergarten or maybe primary school, therefore it is the time I try it. Super-simple little project: cherries. I used polymer clay, wire-stems with ready-made fabric leaves, narrow satin ribbon and nail polish. I cut the clay into pieces, warmed it in my hands and made balls circling the clay between my palms. Toothpick seemed just right to make a deep hole, the place where stems will be inserted. After baking and cooling, cherries were ready to be painted. I used dark red nail polish – exactly the colour and shine of ripe cherries. Toothpicks again – inserted into stem holes so the cherries could be painted and let to dry. Once the nail polish has dried, I put a drop of hot glue at the top of the cherry hole, put end of the satin ribbon on top of that and pushed it inside using the wire. That glued both the ribbon and the wire with the leaf to the cherry. I will know for the next time to make the holes a bit wider, that would make the whole thing tidier. I smeared a bit of the glue over the wire and wrapped the satin ribbon around it. The other end of the ribbon got glued to the back of the fabric leaf. And here I have just the cherries I wanted! What I am going to do with them? Stay tuned! Mare VCXFCJ7RNMSB

Trebam trešnje! Posted on 2 svibnja 2012 and filed under Razno. This post is also available in: English Trešnje bi trebale biti u glavnoj ulozi na nekim stvarima koje radim. Potraga po hobi trgovinama nije urodila plodom, nisam našla niti trešnji niti velikih perli koje bi glumile trešnje. No vidjela sam polimernu masu, i prisjetila se da sama kažem kako si čovjek sam može napraviti sve što mu treba. Oblikovala glinu ili bilo što slično nisam od vrtića ili možda osnovne škole, dakle vrijeme je da probam. Super-jednostavan projektić: trešnje. Koristila sam polimernu masu, žicu-peteljke s već gotovim listićima od tkanine, usku satensku traku i lak za nokte. Masu sam izrezala na komadiće, zagrijala u rukama i vrteći ju među dlanovima oblikovala kuglice. Mjesta za peteljke duboko sam izdubila čačkalicom i stavila peći u pećnicu. Nakon pečenja i hlađenja, trešnje su bile spremne za bojanje. Koristila sam lak za nokte tamno crvene boje – baš boje i sjaja zrelih trešnji. Opet čačkalice – nataknula sam ih u rupice, obojala trešnje i ostavila da se lak osuši. Kad se lak osušio, na rupicu sam stavila kap vrućeg ljepila, na to kraj satenske trake i ugurala ga žicom unutra. To je istovremeno zalijepilo i traku i žicu s listom za trešnju. Možda bi bilo bolje da sam rupice napravila malo šire, bilo bi manje petljanja ljepilom po samoj trešnji. Satensku traku omotala sam oko žice na koju sam razmazala malo ljepila i njen drugi kraj zalijepila na poleđinu lista. I imam upravo trešnje kakve želim! Što ću s njima napraviti? Pratite me!
