NO HARD THINKING
Nič kaj posebej oh-in-sploh ustvarjalna ni bila zadnja runda. Samo za roke zaposlit, ko se je glava od dela malo obrnila proti Marsu in drugim prijetnim razmišljanjem...
/ Nothing very creative and fabulous in my recent crafting sessions. Just to keep my hands busy while my head was turned away from all the work towards Mars and other pleasant thoughts...
Posrečilo se mi je, da sem našla nekaj zelo uporabnih verižic za minimalno ceno. Samo nekaj kičastih obeskov je bilo treba odstraniti in verižico razdeliti na krajše dele - iz ene verižice sem dobila osnovo za sedem zapestnic.
/ I got lucky and found some quite useful necklaces for a minimum price. I only had to remove a few kitschy pendants and I could make seven bracelet chains out of it.
In ko so bile že klešče v roki, tudi kamenčki in školjkice niso bili daleč. Pa sem malo poskusila. Rezultat sicer ni tako fensi kot so Marnine lepotičke, ampak mi je zaradi morskega modro-rjavo-školjkastega pridiha všeč.
/ When I had pliers in my hand, chips and shell beads weren't very far. So I gave it a little try. The result is not as fancy as these beauties made by Marna, but I like it because it's blue and brown and has shells and reminds me of the seaside.
In potem še nekaj uhančkov. Iz vsake škatlice nekaj kamenčkov, na približno enako dolžino, nanizat, zavihat, obesit.
/ And a few pairs of earrings. A few chips from each box, approximately the same length, string, make a loop, hang up.
Drugi posrečen nakup so bili vzorčasti papirčki. Razrezani in zaenkrat samo barvno skombinirani z ozadjem. In približno skombinirani z motivi. Ostali okraski, trakci, razcepke, gumbki, napisi... bodo pa postopoma, kakor bo potreba.
/ The other great purchase were patterned papers. Cut up and only matched to backgrounds for now. And only remotely with suitable motives. But other embellishments, ribbons, brads, buttons, sentiments, etc., will be added later, when necessary.
Kvadratni niso niti še tako daleč kot pravokotni. Ampak kombinacije kar skačejo ven iz te "gasilske", kajne?
/ I haven't made even that far with the square ones yet. But combinations just keep popping out themselves, aren't they?
