Today I'll share with you a little story about the person behind... 🌿
A friend of mine gave me some pieces of leather, knowing that this will be a challenge for me, trying to make something wearable of them... It was an odd package with pieces of material of the same shape and texture, looking not very promising and stylish :)) And also, a plastic little bottle with metal studs an different metal objects that should have been turned into jewelry 💍
He was making at that time knives and wooden handles and he was very happy for me that I started to 'play' too with materials and colors... I wondered then if he was kidding me or something, I had no clue what to do with those things...
My experience and habit of gathering things is maybe not very stylish and well seen but it helped me a lot to develop my creativity and let me play with everything I had to hand...
When I need something, my first question is:
- How can I do/built that:))
- Second... what do I need for doing that, something that I already have around...
- Third one... where are my car keys? I have to go to buy some things I need:))
But I'm very happy that it has been a while since I started pursuing my dream and 'make stuff' and I have a lot of things to use/transform every time I get an idea! It was a little bit funny the other days when I suddenly grabbed a coat and went out looking for an open furniture shop, to buy a closet, because my house was full of things in every corner I found empthy. And that was the moment when I realized that I need to make a change! now:)) I'm a pretty NOW person:))
So, I'm very happy to possess a lot of useless things that will become very useful someday! 😅
Think of the cat lady, sometimes I'm the stuff lady:)) Like:
What's that interesting piece of wood/metal/plastic/whatever?
May I have it:))? Thank you! 😊
Today's post is an example of turning nothing into something, and I encourage you, like always, to seek the beauty in everything!
I would so like to talk also about recycling and waste but maybe some other time, because only hearing these words I get strong feelings of disappointment..
But I don't want to make you sad.. Let's just be happy and loving with everything and everyone surrounds us! This is the answer and the solution!
Going back to the beginning of my story, this post is about a clue about what I managed to do with those leather pieces... following that I'll show you the entire process! Here it is! 😍
Stay tuned, I have a little collection of these and more to come:)
Thank you for reading, I'm glad that I have the chance to tell you more about me and I feel like we get to know each other day by day☺! Be love and happiness 💌
