I'm Back /neon bracelet's

Hi Guys, 

After a long time I'm back on blog mode. The last few months where very long and busy. I had no time for this blog. Today I'm back with a lot of new things. From now on I keep posting a lot of cute stuff and cute  new creations. My page www.facebook.com/lotscollection is growing very well. Today I have already 1.431 likers. I love there support. So I would ask everybody to surf to www.facebook.com/lotscollection and like my page. You would make me really happy.

But now back to business. My exams are finished and now I have a lot of time to think about new creations. This summer is the summer of neon colors. I love them so much. My favorites are neon pink and yellow. I bought a few neon peals online for my new collection. They are like really flashy but so lovely. Here you have some photo's of my peals and the new neon bracelet's I made for the new collection.

 

I also bought a few new shamballa beads. I think everybody know them. They are like little beads with rhinestones. This are small bling bling stones. I bought them in a lot of colors like blue , pink , yellow and white. I really love glittering peals. In the same shop I found a few connectors to made neon bracelets. I really wanna share them with you so here you have a picture of all my glittering stuff 

 So now it's time to finish because I have to created a lot of new stuff for the new collection.

summer colors

DIY : bracelet holder

Hi ,

Today I made a few new bracelets and I was thinking that I didn't have enough space to store them. So I thought that maybe I could make a bracelet holder. I'm happy with the result and that's why I show you how to make one.

First you have to look for some material. You can find a lot of material in your house.You need one big role and a small one. I used the inside role of the towel in the kitchen and the inside role of the toilet paper. You also need some drapery to put over the roles. The pictures below show you the material.

let's start 

step 1 :  Take the small role and the drapery. Put the drapery under the role. Then you put some glue on the drapery and put it around the small role.

 If you do that really slow and carefully you will have the best result. After that the result must be like this 

step 2 : make a hole in the big role as big as the diameter of small role. ( see the picture below ) Use the same method to put the drapery around the role as in step 1 . Don't glue the drapery around the hole because it has to be open so that you can put the small role in it.

step 3 : put the small role in the hole of the big role . Now you have your own bracelet holder. As you can see the holder is really light. If you put a lot of bracelets around it , it will lose his balance. To solve this problem you need to put some weight in the small role. I used a empty perfume bottle en filled it with water. 

This is mine result. Hope you like it ! 

Love & kisses

Amigurumi

Hi ,

A few weeks ago I started to try something new : amigurmi .
what's that ? well here you have a definition I found on wikipedia :

Amigurumi (編みぐるみ^?, lit. crocheted or knitted stuffed toy) is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures. The word is derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll.^[1] Amigurumi are typically animals, but can include artistic renderings or inanimate objects endowed with anthropomorphic features,^[2] as is typical in Japanese culture.

So I thought that it would be easy , but it isn't. You have to be really focused so that you don't make any mistake. My first ami wasn't really good because of that I didn't made a picture of it. My second one was much better. I made miffy ( In belgium know a nijntje). It's a small ami of 10 cm high. I didn't found a pattern for this so I made one by myself. My last ami was also miffy , but a bigger one of 28 cm high and with a skirt. 

I you wanna know how you have to make this ami's I can show you some tips and tricks but I can't give you my pattern for free. 
Here you have the pictures of my amigurumi creations ( the orange one is the small one )

Hope you like them as mush as I do

snow time

hi,

The winter arrived  in Belgium. There is like 10 cm snow. Because of that I took my camera to make some pictures. The models today were my dog stitch and my lovely horses. I really love this cold winter. Everything is white and the sun is shining all day. I made some new earrings and they fit really well in the snow theme. They are like little shinny snowballs. It are earrings with a lot of glitter.

my after exam creations

Hi ,

Today is another day . I had an exam this morning and after that I really like relaxing. Then plan was to go shopping with my best friend , but he went to the dentist and wasn't able to talk a lot. Because of that  I decided to make some new creations. It took me the whole afternoon. I made two bracelets and one necklace.

Maybe you remember the skull earrings I made this weekend , well the skulls of this bracelet match with the earrings . I think that the skulls and the golden theme work perfect together.
The second bracelet is just a simple one , but simple can be really cute. The green stone in the middle in combination with the vintage rose peals is totally in right now.

after all that I made a simple necklace by using a strass pendant.

Now I'm going to sleep because I'm really tired after all this work

Love & kisses

weekend creations

Hi

Today I have to study a lot so I don't have a lot of time to make jewels. This weekend I made 2 pair of earrings.

I really love my first pair. They are made of swarovski peals. I really like swarovski peals because the quality is very good and they look so natural . They are really shiny. I love them ! It looks like the earrings are really heavy but actually they aren't. They are perfect and thanks to there black colour you can match them with almost every outfit.

My second pair is totally different , it's bigger but at the same time simple. They are gold so they are totally fashionable. I like the skull theme because it's something different and it can rock your outfit. I made them 10 cm long , because if they where smaller they will not have the same effect.

Hope you like my new creations and tomorrow I'm trying to make earrings with shamballa pearls 

I curious to see the result 

Love & kisses

DIY : making a cabochon necklace with picture

hi ,

Today I do my first DIY.
I decided to show how to make a cabochon necklace with any picture you want. For this tutorial you don't have to be good at making jewels and all that stuff, you just have to be good with glue. the picture below show you with material I used for making the necklace.

Here you have a list of all the material :
- cabochon setting ( round , oval ...,)
- cabochon cab or cabochon glass ( oval are 18 mm at 25 mm) ( round are 15 mm)
- necklace ( same color as your cabochon setting)
- glue ( I used nexus glue from bison ) , but you can use any superglue.
- picture ( you can buy standard pictures online , but you can make them by yourself.
- circles ( to put the cabochon setting and the necklace together)

let's start !

step 1
You take one cabochon setting ( I used the oval one ) and a picture in the same format as the inside space of the setting. You can buy the pictures online , but you can make them to. If you want to make them at home you just need some photo paper and a scissor. You chose your picture and print it out ( be sure that you picture is small enough to fit in the setting. then you take the cabochon glass and put it above the picture . after all that you cut the picture in the format of the glass. This is what the result has to look like.

step 2 :
You put the picture in the setting

step 3 :
you take the cabochon setting with picture and glue it together. ( You put the glue on the picture and then you place the glass above it. Wait a few minutes to be sure that it's dry. If you have some glue residues, you can remove them with nail varnish remover.

step 4 :
When your setting is dry and clean you take a necklace and put a circle on it. ( you can do that with pliers). If you don't have a professional one , just borrow one of your dad's tool box.

If you did all those things the result has to look like this :

 extra :

You can use the same technique for making earrings.

I hope you like this DIY . If you have any suggestions for another DIY feel free to ask .

Have a nice day !
