I've been bit by the crafters' bug.
I spent the whole day today looking at tutorials for polymer clay patterns and designs, and trying to understand the coded language of knitting design tutorials.
The day before I spent searching for headbands to buy (didn't buy any because found most of them ridiculously expensive for what they were).
And there're 50 sheets of shrinky dinks collecting dust on my "artsy shelf".
My head is so full of ideas and my hands are itching. I need to channel this energy !!
I want to knit.
I want to mold.
I want to make something with Shrinky Dinks.
I want headbands.
.

.

I shall combine all of that.
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!
And I want it to be something with...
NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS!
I was thinking of making a headband with a knitted (?) Oogie Boogie and Lock, Shock and Barrel Shrinky Dink charms !Yaaaay!
I already finished my Shrinky Dinks ! CHECK
I was so happy with how they turned out.
I was a bit scared to put them in the oven since I had spent a fair amount of time on them. But fortunately the sheets are of good quality and they turned out fantastic !
I loved watching them do their magic in the heat. I even called Olivier to come see the transformation !
There we were, both of us, sitting on the floor of our kitchen, staring at our oven, going "I'm scared", "that don't look too good..", "ooh" "aah" "sweeeeet...". :D
Aah fun times.
So next step, Oogie !
I have no green wool. DAMNIT
I have no plain headband to decorate. FAIL.
I need to go buy stuff and get back to this project....
Fudge.
I want to buy polymer clay.
But I don't know the color or quantity to choose.
Oh the choices of life...
I'd like to make a candy themed headpiece..
And with flowers.
And something with wings...
HMMMM.
And I'd like to make fairy sculptures with polymer clay and their wings with Shrinky Dinks....GAAA.
