Em's Christmas presents 2011

I painted my nails in Christmas colours using water marbling. Dropping the nail-polish on the water and swirling a design before dipping the nail in! Was cool once I had a few goes but didn't last in time for Christmas.. Em's Felt Coasters/Drink identifiers: I cut out the shapes in different colours of felt once I had the size and design and glued the edges.

Em's Scarp Fabric Coasters and pot holder: I wrapped scrap fabric around rope and then zigzag stitched it together in a circle. I also made a bowl using the same technique.

 

Custom cushion: I made this rectangle cushion made to measure and fit this space ion my Dad's place, to cover a piece of foam. I made the buttons using a self button coverer, edged the cushion with rope and added a zipper.

Minimal Movie Posters

Minimal Movie Posters, a blog where people submit there own minimalist version of a movie poster. Some are really clever. You could use them for a guessing game, the type you would see on Talkin' About Your Generation. I love the graphic feel of most of them. I am a fan of this minimal technique, silhouette style..
