  1. Bunga Pahar Daun Getah Pink Hitam

    August 27, 2011 by admin

    A prospective client contacted me asking whether I could make a sample of bunga pahar daun getah with pink and black as the wedding color theme.

    It has been a while since I got supply of daun getah. After looking high and low, I finally found a supplier who was willing to do raw bunga daun getah. It was a smooth transaction and I really hope she will be able to continue making such flowers.

    Since I have never done anything black, it was quite tedious for me to scout for materials. I went to the nearest SSF and bought quite a lot of ribbons and organza in dark pink and black.

    So here is the first sample I made. I think I will do a few more samples with different color combination like silver and pink, cream and pink and white and pink just to see how they look like.

  4. Bunga Songket For Centerpiece

    July 30, 2011 by admin

    For the past 2 weeks I have been working on this bunga songket flower for cocktail table centerpiece. An event management person contacted me and asking whether I could make bunga songket arrangement for the proposed event.

    Since I have never made floral arrangement with custom made bunga songket before, I was interested to try my hand on that.

    The only songket I have in stock is this red one which I bought intentionally for my son’s majlis akikah and cukur jambul (which we haven’t had the chance to do).

    I have learned a lot from making this centerpiece arrangement. Even though in the end I didn’t get the order for the event, at least now I know something new about floral arrangement. Next thing I want to try making hand bouquet using bunga songket.

  5. Lollipop On The Headband

    July 21, 2011 by admin

    Remember my previous few posts about these fabric rosettes which look more like lollipop?

    My friend Mai of Okinokiyo Shop has managed to use the fabric lollipop as embellishment on fabric wrapped headbands. This is how each unique headband looks like.

    Luckily she has a lot of fabrics that could be matched with the rosettes I made because when I made them, I have no idea what the end product will be like.

    I just notice that I didn’t make more in green varieties. Well, I just bought more fabrics last weekend and I have made sure there’s green based cotton (both plain and printed) among the stack.

    My personal favorite is this yellow and black combination. Unfortunately I have no daughter and my two grand nieces are still too young to enjoy being pretty..huhu!

    For those who would like to have this one of a kind headband for Hari Raya, kindly visit the Okinokiyo Shop on Facebook. I’m not sure whether she has advertised this on their official blog.

    Oh, for those who are brave and stylish enough, you can even wear this headband on top of your hijab/tudung..especially if you are wearing those shawl like Hana Tajima or Yuna..just some idea to style up your clothing.

  6. Fabric Rosettes That Look Like Lollipop

    July 18, 2011 by admin

    I have been working on these colorful fabric rosettes diligently last week to the extend of falling sick..huhu! Actually I have not been feeling very well the week before but I thought I won’t succumb to the flu and fever season as many have fell into.

    Anyway, the fabric rosettes which look more like a lollipop were actually made for Okinokiyo.com. She used them to embellish the headbands and fabric yoyo brooch for Urbanscape 2011 held yesterday.

    I was not able to go to Urbanscape this year as I have craft class in the afternoon and as usual I won’t be having enough sleep the night before due to anxiety of oversleeping thus lack of energy to continue doing anything else after the class has finished.

    Well, maybe next year I could go and see in person what’s the city’s all-day creative arts festival is all about.

    Coming back to the subject of these fabric rosettes, I am planning to make them into hair clip.

    From previous year’s post Hari Raya feedback, most of my friends with daughters told me that their kids prefer to wear hair clip than crocheted headband.

    OK, friends’ daughters..let see how many fabric rosette hair clips this Aunty could make to be given away during the coming Hari Raya open house..haha!

  8. Assorted Color of Fabric Rosette

    June 15, 2011 by admin

    After a few more trial and error attempt with glue gun and improving the technique on how to roll and turn the fabric strips, I managed to make better rosette as shown in these two pictures. The printed one are made from designers cotton, scraps I bought from Okinokiyo.com.

    Next I will incorporate these rosettes in cardmaking and scrapbook layout. These rosettes are quite flat and not as bulky as some flowers available in the market. I don’t really mind having a textured embellishment on layout but the problem will come later when I want to store it.

    If only we have greater choice in Malaysia when it comes to shadow box, and cheaper one as well.

    If you are using this on cards, I think you will need to custom made the envelope to fit the bulky part of the fabric rosette. And of course you need to pay extra for the postage.

    Oh, these rosettes are available for sale since I don’t think I will use all of them on my creations as much as I get addicted making them. Those interested to buy kindly leave comment and your valid email address and I will get back to you.

  9. Better Fabric Rosette

    June 8, 2011 by admin

    After watching a few more videos on how to make fabric rosette, I think I finally get the concept of rolling and turning the fabric into rosette. After the third attempt, I can see the different it makes in the correct technique. Check out the one in white. Compare that with my first attempt of rosette (in previous post), the one in purple is more like folded rose than rolled rosette.

    I still couldn’t get Fabri-tac anywhere. The only option is to buy online on ebay, which will cost me almost RM80 for 8oz after currency conversion and postage from US to Malaysia..huhu!

    For the one in mauve, I used glue gun to adhere the fabric. As usual with glue gun, I burnt my fingers and it got me really pissed off..huhu! Oh, I tried putting small pearls on 2 of the fabric rosette just to see how it will look like. I also use felt on the bottom of the rosette, in case I want to use these handmade flowers for my cardmaking or scrapbook layout later.

    Maybe I should just make these fabric rosettes and sell them as craft supply for those who need to embellish their handmade products like hat, headband, tote bag or even cards and scrapbook layout. What about 3 pieces for RM5? haha..(that if I can get Fabri-tac anytime soon)

  10. More Fabric Flowers

    June 3, 2011 by admin

    Mai of Okinokiyo.com forwarded a URL on how to make fabric rosette last week. The problem is I don’t really have much choice when it comes to fabric. My craft work for the past few years consists of tulle, organza and ribbons, but hardly fabric.

    It is also hard to get fabric glue where I live. Yes, there are many multi purpose glue in the market that could be used to attach two pieces of fabric, but after years of crafting I learned that using the right tools will usually make your task easier and the outcome is more satisfying.

    In the end I just use some cheap fabric I bought earlier in Kamdar and Glossy Accent as substitute for fabric glue. Since I was so lazy to go to the messy craft room to find a suitable size of bead or pearl to be sewn in the middle of the rosette, I just used one of the Czech glass beads I have in the room. I bought those beads to be used as part of my crochet bookmark (which has not been used so far, guilty as charged for being a hoarder..haha!)

    Anyway, my personal favourite for fabric flower is still this sewn 5 petals flower, which I have shared the tutorial earlier. This time since I don’t have a big button that is suitable to be put in the centre, I decided to stack a crochet flower on top of the fabric flower. Err..why do I think I need to get more choice of colors for crochet threads?
