Bright autumn

Here's a different interpretation of Autumn :-)
For Emma. Inspired by her picture.

Gooood, I LOVE to play with colors! But you probably know that already... :P

Strawberry flavored bubble gum ♥

Juicy juicy! I used here all the pinks and reds (+ some purples) from ikickshins.net. And for around a month you'll see all the purples from there in the one set :) Now... feel the awesomeness

How to make a "natural" dreads

I've been always deeply in love with natural style dreads but my drama was consisting in the PURE HATE for the crochet hook. I made only those: [link] but well... I had to! Can you imagine that color scheme as an usual dreads?! No way. But those were JUST crocheted - now I tried some new method and it was a successful attempt! I was so in shock so I made the tutorial immediately :D Check it out!

Hello again, Rainbow!

Do you remember that epicness [link]?
The black base this time + fewer but brighter colors. I would LOVE TO make also an inverted version someday... a rainbow top with black or blonde tips! Is anybody inclined? ;-)

WANTED: wooden beads

I need some beads!!! Fimo? Too easy. Wood? Why not! No matter that I've never used it before, no matter I almost lost my fingers, no matter they're ugly as hell... Here they come :D 30 minutes work. I'm gonna try to make some more... spectacular.. soon. I promise! Just ordered a smaller drill for my bro's milling machine (no idea if that's the eng name of that, in polish it's "frezarka" lolz) soooo there's still a HOPE ;-)




So: wood + milling device + paint =
SUPER EPIC VOLCANIC AWESOMNESS

Mossy forest

Here's the 2nd prize in my Dread Contest: II Edition!

The winner wanted to get a misty mossy forest as a dreads so... here it is :-) My very first (and I'm afraid very LAST) crocheted natural style ones. It was sooo hard (and long...) to make them but the effect's worth it.

Base color is olive from Diversity Hair (UK) + dark golden brown, dark autumn from ikickshins.net

++ If you like the last picture you can vote on it (by clicking "like") here: [Olive Dreads Competition]
