Making a Covered Button


Lovely Buttons everywhere! When it comes to crafts, we always look for something de novo and unique that will add shimmers in our handmade. I've found this covered buttons making kit at Daiso so I decided to bought it and give it a try. And since I am making a handmade bags that needs a lock button, and instead buying an already made buttons, why not making my own covered buttons that will definitely suitable match for my bags. 

The kits includes button parts a & b, pusher, mold, template and the instructions as well. The size is 22mm and you can make a 15 pieces covered buttons. The buttons part a are the front and the b part will be the back of your button; the red circle one is the pusher; the transparent color is the mold and the template will be your pattern for cutting a fabric or remnant. Oh by the way, the button kits have different sizes available to buy but I choose this 22mm, and I guess these one are the medium button size among the others. 

Once you started making a covered button, all you need to prepare are scissors and fabric (avoid thick fabric such as denim and corduroy, etc.). 

Here's the instructions for the covered buttons making kit: (also see the image below)                                                                     -Place a piece of a round cut cloth using the template, with part A button on the mold.                                                                           -Then push it with your thumb or using the pusher.                                                                                                                                     -Place part B button  and firmly push it down with the pusher.                                                                                                                    -Lastly, push the back of the mold to release your button.                                                                                                                               -And voila~ you already made your own covered button.

LP: Invites project

1240319_625293230855498_1494563093_nAnother late project to posts. Aarrgh! there’s a lot of post that I’ve been missed but anyways here’s the snap paper craft works I made before. I’ve been hired to make a wedding invites and a 5oth birthday for a masquerade party theme. It’s a long way challenge to me especially the wedding invites that my dear friend requests by having a bride and groom that made out of clay kissing in front or while opening their wedding invitation. Oh it’s a big gulp but I’m very happy with the outcome and of course not just me including my dear friend, the bride and groom reminds me how sweet to be in-love and be loved for the rest of our lives.Ayeeeh! love-love-love <3IMG_6210
My lovely cousin hired me as well to do the masquerade invites for her mom and dad, it was a surprise masquerade party for their 50th birthday. She wanted a royal blue, black and gold color blend for their invites. It’s quite hard because it’s too many to make it but thanks to my Silhoutte Cameo for helping my works faster. I also made a message sign book for their beloved guests, a thousand thanks. How I wish I was there to celebrate and wear a masks too hihi! but sadly I really can’t because I don’t have a ticket to fly to Manila, Philippines and I’m busy working too. IMG_6217IMG_6219IMG_6220

Little Miss.

Hello again bloggie! Well this is not a so new craft works I’ve been working but I’d still like to share my cute little girls or they also known as “chibi” in japanese and so I started to call them Little Miss. I always used Fimo brand polymer clay on my clay works plus using a resin for the pendant base  and so I needed to wait for one-day to let the resin dried securely.
So here’s what it looks like. I firstly pour the resin color mix that I made for the bottom base of the pendant and then I made and baked my darlings, Little Miss after that I pour the clear resin again for their finished detail. Look how tiny they are, so cutie-patootie, and oh by the way I gave them a name too, Little Miss Lovi (the pink one) and Little Miss Bubbly (baby blue). And voila I’ve made a shiny bubbly necklace to wear.

Jingle Ornament Challenge

(I know this post are so-so..sooo.. late! Haha! But please pardon me; hopefully this post 
will inspire each people who loves handmade ornaments especially Christmas.)

This is my humble handmade entry for Jingle Ornaments challenge at Art Nouveau Philippines. I used styro-ball and a plastic christmas ball to make my jingle ornament. My thoughts and imaginations wanted to explode cos I don't have great ideas on making my ornament though I have my materials I just really don't know what would be the finale designs. 

So I just get my thingy on my working desks, and start creating the ornaments, then my first ornament turns into a shades of yellow with the green grass effects on the top with some red flowers; Second turns into a simple crusty ornament with red ribbon; the Third one becomes a See-through reddish galaxy with golden wire; Fourth one turns into a sweetie-licious ornament filled of chocolate icing, biscuits and ice cream; and the last one turns into Vines of love.

And I guess that's the spirit of Christmas that your handmade turns into a wonderful and merry one.

I'd also like to share and introduce the other ornaments entries of my co-artist in Art Nouveau Ph with their very lovely handmade ornaments with their own description.

Merry Christmas! "

"I decided to make something that is not a round shape for them to stand out once it's situate on a Christmas tree. I just use some scrap clays and varnish it with an antiquing technique. I also made a wish-list Ornament and a Mr & Mrs. Santa Clause.. Merry Christmas everyone! "

" I used crumpled tin foil to make it light weight... All made of polymer clay... My favorite is the Christmas scene... I enjoyed making the very small details..."

" I wanted to make something that will make my kids love it. And wah lah! They loved it. And wanted me to do more.



The idea came from my youngest who loves to eat cakes and likes watching Word Wold at Disney Junior. And the green one is my own idea. The color symbolizes self-respect and well being. It also means learning, growth and harmony which I think reflects my personality :)



Seeing these ornaments hanging in the living room makes me smile knowing that despite of our situation, with my own hands, I can make our Christmas as joyful as ever. Feliz Navidad mi amigas! "
