Handmade Bow Tie 3

This time I spent more efforts on  detailing the bow tie and still remain to my passion on using recyclable, used materials. I chose garbage bag cut into stripes and weave them. I used the beverage card packaging material like from the fruit juice product card container/soy bean card container to make the triangular shapes and form the bow tie shape.


 




For the packaging box of the bow tie I made as a present box for my birthday friend, I reuse a used car box and mounted/stick one layer of newspaper as it is what I picture for the box. I added doodles and my logo. I drew the triangle with an eye on the box is not only matching the bow tie details and also is a symbol  of unambiguity


Handmade Glasses

My third time making a glasses where this time I have put much more effort and improvement on the glass than my previous ones. I added a simple touch on design by having little 3 stripes at side to gives a sporty kind of feel and this glasses is much bigger than the previous ones which is bigger size like a goggle just for experimenting and fun. Added a plastic shade as lens. The whole glasses frame is made by newspaper with PVA glue, metal strings and little bit of polystyrene I got it from the take away food container.

The image above was my first time handmade spectacles without plastic/lens on it and its fragile.It's only polystyrene and newspapers with PVA glue made. Then painted with mural paint.

Big Birthday Cake Card



This is an old birthday card i made for my partner's birthday, I eventually spent almost RM70 (kind of expensive to me but its worth for making someone happy) for printing this in A2 size paper and paste on a card board if I didn't remember wrong. When the card opens up, it forms a chocolate 3 storey cake with his friends printed on card standing on the cake.
