bento for Ay...!!!

this is the first bento that i made for Ay, haha, little absurd, don't have any theme, just put put and voila ;p since i found blog of my new friend Liza from Bento Si Ayah, she share all the bento that she made for her hubby, and wow, i amaze for her creativity not just for her cooking skill but her crafty foody skill :) lucky hubby :)

and this morning i have no plane to make a bento, just like ordinary early morning, hush rush to do the routins like making breakfast for Ay and take that breakfast on Ay lunch box ;p but this morning is little special. i try to make bento in a hurry time, what i put is a rice with they're smiley face, fried brokoli blanket shrimp, egg, pinapple and grape. yes, the combination is so absurd, and in the middle of my creation i lost my mood, haha...

thanks Ay for getting little late for waiting the absurd bento,haha... love ya... enjoy ur lunch latter :)

i love needle felting...!!!

not know much about this but my curiosity makes me wanna googling it and share it to ya, this crafty story is about needle felting. needle felting is the process of felting wool with the use of specialized barbed needles and without the use of water. moisture is generally not well tolerated because the needles are barbed, unlike smooth sewing needles, and will rust. You can use applique's of wool to decorate your wet felting, crocheted, or knitted project and other fabrics. *source from here*

and wooow... i'm like shock when i found this blog, full of celebrity needle felt, goooshhh...so awesome :) this is my fav: beatles, janis joplin, bono and elton john, kewl :) check her galery in HERE !

i love origami craft...!!!

i was shocked about the huge earthquake in Japan that caused tsunami, my prayers are with everyone in Japan :''') so today craft story i will share you about the traditional japanese art of folding paper, origami.
*pic found here

origami is from the words ori meaning "folding", and kami meaning "paper". it's started in the 17th century AD and was popularized in the mid-1900s. The goal of this art is to transform a flat sheet of material into a finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques, and as such the use of cuts or glue are not considered to be origami.

to be honest i'm not realy good in this craft, as i remember i just can make a ship, bird, camera, box and mmmm...that's all :) and when i try to googling it this morning here are a lotta origami that i never thinking that human being can make it, gosh...it's so fantastic, u should now about this:
*pic found here

pic found here here here here


there's a lotta more awesome origami that u should know, if u wanna try to make just visit this site: HERE !!! or HERE !!! have a fun day to learn origami :)
