Fabric Bracelets

1) Cut the cord long enough to fit around your wrist with enough slack to slip over your hand (like a bangle bracelet).
2) With your favorite fabric glue (one that's really sticky like fabri-tac) or hot glue, glue the ends of your rope to create a circle.

3) You can chose to tear the fabric strip so that it gave a bit of a tattered edge,
4) You will need a long strip about an inch wide.
5) Gluing as your wrap, go around your bracelet a couple of times.
6)  This will help hold everything together as well as give it a nice look.
7) When you get to the end, tuck and glue on the inside.

Fabric Hair Clips

An awesome inspiration from PinkLittleLadies

 

-Scrap Fabric

-A cup to trace, choose one that is the size you would like your flower to be.

-Fabric cover buttons

-Barrette or alligator clip

-hot glue gun

-Stapler

 

1) Cut 8 circles out using a pattern created using your cup and some paper. Fold the circles in fourths and Staple at the point

 

2) Cut a small circle of felt or fabric and glue the pieces onto it. I glue four on, making sure the tips are a little overlapping, then glue the next four on top of the cracks ( meaning not right on top of another but between two of them)

 

3) Cover a button following the directions on the package. Glue the button in the center, use lots of glue. Then glue the clip onto the back.

 

 

 

Fabric Flower

1) Cut out 8- 2 1/2" squares from each color

2) Fold a square in half, then fold it again to make a smaller square
3) Cut the outer edges(not the folded edges). It will almost look like a heart shape

4) Pinch in the middle and stitch 2-3 times. Keep adding the rest of the pieces to it

5) End result of her beautiful fabric flower. Check out her blog for more inspiring ideas.

Fabric Covered Bracelet

Yet another talented lady....

1) Fold the right sides of the fabric together, sew the fabric end to end using 1/4" seam allowance. Turn the tube inside out. Press the seam with an iron.

2) Slide a bead into the tube, then stick a needle through the tube above the bead and wrap it around the tube several times then tie it off. Remeber to hide the knot. Repeat until all the beads are in the tube. I used DMC floss and picked the color that I wanted to bring out of the fabric. I could have chosen red or light brown too

Love Rain

"Love Rain" depicts a 1970's pure love and a love from the present day at the same time. It shows how the children of a previous ill-fated couple, who met in the 1970s, managed to meet and fall in love. Seo In Ha and Kim Yoon Hee, an art student and a shy beauty, met and fell in love with each other during college in the 1970s but unfortunately their love was fated to never be. Now in the present 21st century Korea, Seo In Ha's son, Seo Joon (a liberal photographer) meets and falls in with the daughter of Kim Yoon Hee, Jung Ha Na, a cheerful and energetic girl who's personality is different from her mother's. Will their love for each other keep them together or will they have to face the same fate as their parents?

A new show. It looks so promising at the start, with all the sad songs, rhythms, melodies. The occurence of rain every time the couple met is so teary and nostalgic. The scenery is romantic and cinematic. A refreshing plot of the old and new couples.

The drama reunites director Yoon Suk Ho and screenwriter Oh Soo Yun of "Autumn in My Heart" and "Winter Sonata" for the first time in 10 years. And I watched both shows, liking Winter Sonata much more than Autumn in My Heart.

I skipped the first few episodes of the 1970s pure love because I am more interested in the present day romance by Jang Geun Suk and Im Yoon Ah. I can't help liking Jang Geun Suk in his previous 2 dramas, namely "You're Beautiful" and "Mary Stayed Out All Night" and now in "Love Rain" He just has this rocker chic appeal. And he looks good in some of his dressing in this show.

I couldn't bring myself to watch it when its nearer the end of the drama, because its just so draggy and deadly boring. And besides, the ending plot is kind of predictable.

Yoon Ah, from Girl Generation is very sweet and pretty, when she let down her hair.

Baby-Faced Beauty

The story of Lee So Young, a 34-year-old woman who's saddled with family debt and only has a high school qualifications, but dreams of becoming a fashion designer. Her youthful appearance is her only advantage; she is mistaken for a 25-year-old university graduate and subsequently lands her dream job when she's hired by a fashion design company, where she meets Choi Jin Wook, a man who looks more mature than his young age.

I know. This is an old show. Well, cable TV was doing a re-run of this show recently. I missed it the previous time, thinking it was not appealing. As always, I have been proven wrong.

Its just so funny. After a long day at work, sometimes you just need a comedy to make you laugh away all the blues and stress. I don't like silly acts or people trying too hard to be funny. But this show is really hilarious.

I have watched Jang Nara in My Love Patzzi many years ago and its refreshingly to see her yet again, after so many years. The male lead, Choi Daniel is endearingly sweet towards her and is always helping her when she's in trouble in the company. He's also funny and cute in the show.

I like the maturity level and cool demeanour appeal from Ryu Jin, I thought he's hot. :)
His wooing of Jang Nara in the show, is nothing worth to mention because its nothing much. I actually hope that more can be developed in this area, it would be so interesting but nevertheless, its still a fine show of its own. I like it very much!
The kind that leaves a smile on your face and made you feel that there is a sense of emptiness after you watched the last episode.
