TOPI MINI

Pagiiii ... selamat pagi semuanya ! 
Jumpa lagi , dengan irma disini , ya disini ... *dibaca dengan nada lagu maisy hehehe
Maksud hati mau bangun siang karena hari ini anakku liburr ,, horeee ,,
Tapi ternyata gk bisa tetap aja matanya kesetel bangun pagi , udah berubah jadi mata ayam kayanya yaaa .

Ada salah satu group di facebook khusus mewadahi crafter se - Indonesia 
namanya " INDONESIAN CRAFTER " . Di group itu ada yang namanya Crafty Days jadi dari hari senin - minggu ada nama-namanya :
  • Senin Rekomendasi + Tanya jawab
  • Selasa Peduli
  • Rabu Serbu
  • Kamis Manis
  • Jumat Hangat
  • Sabtu Seru
  • Pasar Minggu
Berhubung hari ini hari kamis dan hari kamis itu harinya para crafter boleh narsis - narsis-an memajang hasil karya terbarunya. Saya sepertinya mau ikutan hari ini acchh pajang karya handmade terbaru .
Handmade terbarunya saya kasih nama TOPI MINI SALLY , kenapa pake nama Sally ? karena menurut saya bunyinya berirama dengan 2 kata didepannya.

Berawal dari melihat lihat sepertinya topi - topi mini banyak sekali dijual di online shop craft ya .
Dan banyak juga para crafter yang mengkreasikan topi mini ini , termasuk anakku juga pernah minta dibelikan jepit rambut topi mini.
Jadi penasaran pengen juga kreasikan topi mini ... akhirnya beli juga topi mini nya di salah satu olshop *kepo banget yaa . Begitu paketnya sampai langsung saja di eksekusi topi mininya !

Seperti biasa .. bagi saya tidak lengkap sepertinya kalau bikin handmade tanpa hiasan bunga hihihiii , soalnya saya suka banget pakai bunga . Jadi terlihat manis dan feminim sekali .. maklum inspirasinya juga selalu bertema flower shabby chic .
Belakangan ini saya lebih sering membuat handmade berupa bros , aplikasi , kenapa ? mau tau alasannya ?
karena " CEPAT JADI ". Lagi mengalami kebosanan tingkat tinggi dengan yang membutuhkan jahit menjahit.

Mau bikin dompet , pouch , dan tas. Pola - polanya sudah jadi , kain sudah digunting , tapi masih nangkring di atas meja jahit tuhh hehehehee *sabar ya kain-kain
Yup tinggal dirangkai bunga - bunganya tempel sana - sini pake glue gun ... VOILAAA :









Speaking of  INDONESIAN CRAFTER , saya merasa senang sekali bisa gabung di group tersebut .
Walaupun saya jarang comment di setiap post group , tetapi saya menyimak looohh ^_^
Senang rasanya bisa tau bahwa crafter banyak sekali tersebar di seluruh indonesia , bisa saling sharing.
Dan dengan adanya Crafty Days khusunya hari kamis bagi saya pribadi , menjadi dorongan semangat untuk selalu bisa membuat handmade setiap minggunya. 
Terus maju semangat untuk para INDONESIAN CRAFTER !!

Something Sweet Made From Fabric Scrap

Selamat siang , selamat ber - weekend ria !
Wohhooo ,, setelah sekian lama akhirnya bisa nge-blog lagi ,
setelah menyelesaikan pesanan cupcake pincushion yang lumayan bikin keteteran .

Begitu lihat kamar jahit , stress seketika melanda
pengen pingsan duluan padahal belum juga bersih-bersih dimulai heheheee .
Entah kenapa kok kayanya saya susah banget ya untuk merapihkan barang-barang
ke tempatnya semula ?? *semoga bukan saya saja yang mengidap penyakit malas seperti ini

Padahal sudah dengan berbagai cara termasuk beli wadah-wadah lucu
alih - alih supaya semangat balikin ke tempatnya semula *tetap ya gak ngaruh juga
Dari kemarin saya lagi bersih - bersih kamar jahit ,
dan problem yang paling utama yaitu banyaknya potongan kain sisa.
Dibuang sayang tapi kalau ditumpuk juga lama - lama menuh-menuhin kamar aja !?

Jadi solusinya harus dibikin jadi sesuatu kain sisa ini.
Sapu dan kemoceng nya ditaruh dulu ya ,, dan akhirnya beres-beresnya ditunda
karena saya dapat ide sederhana untuk menjadikan sisa kain ini menjadi sesuatu produk
dan akhirnya saya memutuskan untuk menjahitnya menjadi bros saja.

Sempat terpikir mau dijahit patchwork ,, tapiii nanti jadinya lama dan beres-beresnya
gak akan selesai hehehee . Gunting sana sini  , jahit sana sini , tempel sana sini ,, dan akhirnya
jadilah bros " PEACE SCRAP BROOCH " ^_^

Ini beberapa fotonya :










Jahitnya baru satu nampan aja ,,, sisa kainnya masih banyak
ide - ide sudah mulai datang bermunculan , tinggal direalisasikan deh.
Jadi intinya beres - beres ditunda lagi ya sepertinya sampai batas waktu yang tidak dapat ditentukan
wakaakakaaa (*_*) (^_ ^)

bedanya yang 2.0 ini pakai half pearl di tengah yoyo-nya
susunan dan lainnya masih sama seperti yang dulu.
Masih mengkombinasikan kain katun dan pita twill , warna - warna yang aku pilih ada 7 warna yaitu :
PINK BIRU HIJAU COKLAT UNGU MERAH ORANGE
