Fashioning Felt.

I finally made it home last night after a long struggle with customs and borders that I was not permitted to cross. Lesson learned: never, ever leave your passport on the plane(at least if you want to keep your sanity in check). I will make it out to Switzerland soon though. This spring break just wasn't the time I suppose. Oh well, I got a couple of extra days in with the family in London so I can't complain much.
We made a quick trip up to the Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum today to see the Fashioning Felt exhibition. Overall, I very much enjoyed it and was particularly mesmerised by this room draped with felt fibres. Too bad we weren't allowed to take pictures, so I had to steal these off google. You can view more photos on the museum website. 
It's meant to be 18ºC tomorrow. Time for bare legs! Hooray!

Crafties.

So last weekend I went to my favourite little antique market on 25th street to collect some materials for my mood board for my 2D project. I picked up a few little trinkets for a total of 20 dollars and left feeling like a happy camper. Here are a few photos of my discoveries. 
On another note, my best pal, Hillary, is landing - oh wait - right now (!) into JFK. I am waiting for her to call me and get her cute little butt over here and give me a hug. It has been a long 7 months without you!
Bisosus!

Head, wear.






3D class always generates some fun creations. My pal Blair made the beautiful head piece I am sporting out of copper wire and a great amount of time and patience. I put her in my head piece made from some straws I bought at the dollar store and some gold wire. 
Wine calls! Happy weekend everyone. 
kiss, D.
