fulare-esarfe faine







tablouri-rame, frames

Am incercat sa fac niste rame. Nu pot spune ca sunt multumita, dar incerc.
Imi place hartia pentru ca e versatila si usor de gasit.
In cazul asta am folosit carton gros pe care am lipit hartie alba, hartie corugata neagra si un trandafir alb din hartie. Si lumanarile albe le-am legat cu fonta neagra ca sa fie in ton.

I tried to make some frames. I can't say I'm happy, but I'm trying.
I like paper becauseit is versatile and easy to find. In this case I used cardstock on which I glued some white paper. On it I glued black corrugated paper and in the middle a white paper rose. And I tied the white candles with black satin ribbon.
In cazul asta rama e din carton pe care am lipit pipirig. Imi place pipirigul pentru ca poti face multe cu el. Se usuca si ramane tare si drept, iar culoarea e tare frumoasa. Aici am folosit feriga pe fata si dos. Imi place mult cum arata.

In this case the frame is cardstock on which I have glued some rush plant. I like the rush plant because one can use it in many ways. It dries and stays hard and straight, and the colour is very beautiful. Here I used fern front and back. I like it very much.




Aici am facut ramele din ramuri pe care am legat flori si plante uscate.

Here I have made the frames out of twigs and I tied up dried plants and flowers.






















Aici pur si simplu am gasit o bucata de lemn pe care am lipit niste pietre pe care le aveam deja din calatorii. Pietrele in forma de inima le-a gasit sotul. Are darul de a gasi pietre in forma interesanta.

What I did here is just take a piece of wood and glue some stones that I had from our travellings. The heart shaped stones were found by my husband. He's got the gift of finding interesting stones.

Buna / Hi

Buna,
Am descoperit domeniul 'lucratului de mana' din intamplare, sa zicem. Acum ma gandesc la asta tot timpul: cum sa fac, ce sa fac. Sunt doar la faza de inceput si pentru mine, si cred ca pentru toata lumea, nu e deloc usor ; dar e asa de fain cand iti reuseste si cand reusesti sa vinzi obiectul, ceea ce inseamna ca si la altcineva i-a placut! Super! Si sunt atatea chestii de incercat!!

Hi,
I have discovered Art and Crafts by mistakes, if I can say so. Now I think about it all the time: what to do, how to do it. I am just at the beginning and for me, and I'm sure it's the same for everybody, it's no that easy; but it is so cool when you do something well and somebody buys that thing, which means that somebody else liked it! Cool! And there are so many beautiful things you got to have a go to!
