DIY Two Tutorials for the Bina Brianca Wrap. Have you see this? It can be worn as a scarf, cardigan, poncho, blouse, shrug, stole, turtleneck, shoulder scarf, back wrap, tunic and headscarf. You can download the PDF “how-to” manual for all these styles from Bina Brianca here.

*If you are even thinking of ever making this I’d download the Bina Brianca how-to PDF now because in my experience these things get pulled off the internet frequently (because people decide to charge for previously free patterns or in this case they may decide to have it just as an insert when you buy the wrap).
Sleeves, Necklines, Collars, and Dress Types
Khalil Chishtee created a series of life size figures using trash bags, un-used grocery bags and plastic sheets. Each figure is packed full of emotion, and act as a metaphor for human instinct to continuously recycle our identities.
This one is for Tali who loves owls …

MADEMOISELLE MAURICE – ORIGAMI STREET ART
The latest creations of the French artist Mademoiselle Maurice, ephemeral installations and non-degrading poetic street art performed with hundreds of colorful origami glued on the walls of Paris. A daunting task to achieve thousands of origami using mostly recycled paper, in a spirit of friendly temporary installation, for the environment and the street. A cloud of origami that fly just like the human network and natural elements, with particular reference to the little Japanese girl Sadako Sasaki.

Frame Collage Headboard | Shrimp Salad Circus
Usually when people tell you how to do a wall mural, it involves a ton of measuring, cutting out pieces of paper the same size as your picture frames, sticking and unsticking, swearing and pencil marks all over the wall. This one is different! Shrimp Salad Circus instead uses the bed as a ‘layout’. This makes total sense- the bed is going to be as wide as the headboard will need to be. If you have a mish mash of frames, the best thing to do is take them and spray paint them all the same colour - it doesn’t matter if they are different styles. Buy some art from etsy, use pictures from magazines and of course, print out all those pictures from your camera!

I haven’t ever, and I don’t think I ever will, find a more beautiful dress.
“To create a sculptural fabric, I am experimenting with the printing technique of marbling; combining embroidery, bonding and pleating. Applying these fabrics into fashion creates unusual and intricate fashion garments.”
