More than 80 hairstyles to wear a fascinator

One of the questions that I hear more when showing my fascinators is; how can I wear it? That's how I end up creating a Pinterest board of more than 80 hair styles and tutorials showing diferent ways to dress your hair for a party. It doesn't matter if you have short hair, long hair, blonde, black, curly or straight there is a way for you to break the mold. 

And why not create a fascinator for women that for different circumstances has few hair right now? I'm working in a couple of models to give the chance to every woman to feel great no matter the circumstances you are in, I hope to be able to show them in a couple of weeks. 

Meanwhile, if you want to see my latest hat and fascinators you are welcome to visit my website here.

Try a different hair style every week; make them to your friend, sister or mom.

Let's get fun with the hair! 

DIY easy stamps with Foamy

There is a material that I discovered some days ago, it's called Foamy (goma EVA in spanish). Its perfect to make crafts with children, it can be used in several ways; you can cut it, paint it, glue it... I thought it could be nice and easy to make stamps with it, here you have some examples but I'm sure that you can do it better! If you want more stamp tutorials here you have another one I made.

Materials:

Foam

Glue

Scissors

Ink

Some support; bottle top, small box, candy box, piece of wood, nail polish...

Let's get fun

This autumn I started integrating wool in my work: using it to make pom poms, wrapping some wire and creating organic forms... This time I use two little pom pom makers that someone give them to me but you can also make pom poms without tem, Domestifluff shows how in this great tutorial.  I use three of them in each comb, all of them full of color. My favourite; purple, turquoise and pink one. It looks great with bun or ponytail, it just adds color to your day. You can already find them in OSLO (torrent de l'olla 164, Barcelona)

DIY dry flower brooch

 

 Materials:

- gardening tape 

- dry flower 

- thick thread

- glue

- brooch

- scissors

 To protect the bunch of dry flowers you can spray them with hairspray and... tara! Your dry flower brooch it's finished. 

Use it to decor a dress, curtains or your bedrooms window. Put it in a "good morning" tray between the coffe and the orange juice or sign with it a "have a nice day" note. It will be a nice complement of a present and a great way to remember that hike to the mountain where you collect those flowers. The flowers I used to make all this brooches are from Maresme, a great place at the edge of the mediterranean sea.

DIY renew your old roller skates

Last year I rescued my old roller skates; they still fit well but they needed a new wheels for the city and the leather was a bit damaged. I bought 4 pairs of soft wheels and 7 permanent pens in warm colors. 

The process to pains the skates or any other shoe is simple; clean it well, draw your design first and paint it then. When you get tired of the design, just repeat the operation ;)

DIY - Spring tutorial

The knowledge is to be shared and tutorials are a great way to do that. Some weeks ago I found a project at Christine Christis blog that is so apropiate for the spring; pretty pots. You just need terracotta or plastic pots, mod podge, brush and fabric. In less than an hour your terrace will have a nice new appearance. With the spring here I picked some bright fabrics with flower motives, red and white vichy fabric and I also dare with a sequin fabric, the result; a mixt of boho - gypsy style terrace.

DIY fabric bowl

After seeing Jessica Christman's tutorial I tried to make this fabric bowl. I also added  a bit of wire all around the top of the bowl in order to make it more resistant. I use it now to keep dry fruits and it's more resistant than I thought it would be.
