Teaser: bra-tagged!

I spent time I really didn't have on thursday to make something very cute, girly and completely insane.
Well, at least it should be useful on the weekend.

I'll show you more pics and a little bit of meaning behind this insanity later this week ;), now I'm off to a very important meeting *mysterious face*

Latex isn't evil anymore.

Wohooo, my first necklace made of latex!

A friend of mine, a very talented artist btw, promised to show me how to work with latex. So last week we had a nice afternoon with tea and sweets and I treated myself with a cute latex necklace with a bow :)

It's very simple, it was my first piece and I think most of the work did my friend K. anyway - but I had a hard work with "looking and learning" anyway.

She left some of the latex and the glue and polishing stuff, so I can make some matching wristbands or another necklace.

It's a very new experience for me, usually I do sew everything and I'm not used to glueing stuff, but it looks very cute I think!

Black Latex Necklace with a black and white Latex Bow:

Recycling, Military, Nerd, Cliché - I like!

First of all: No more braces for Denocte ;) Yay!




All the years I'm in the subculture now there are a few things I've never worn.
e.g. torn tights with holes and stuff on my arms. Or hotpants with some kind of stockings.
And I've never put some functional stuff, like gears or components on clothing, just because it looks good (which, to be honest, it just doesn't in most cases.)

Until this weekend ;)
This weekend I thought I could embrace cliché for once and celebrate that I finally got rid of my braces.
Because, to be honest, a military end of the world outfit just works a lot better without teenagerbraces in your mouth.

All started with this ring.
It's really simple, I just glued a CPU onto a ring. But I just love it! It's cute, and cool, and you can wear it in everyday live as well as in the evenings when going out.

But, then, problem: I didn't have any outfit to go with the ring. So the whole "doing stuff I've never done before" thing started.
I upcycled an old corset of mine. I've sewn it 5 yrs ago, worn it once. It's too small now around the hips, but we can fix that ;)
Originally it was just plain satin camouflage fabric, half bust. When I was done with it it looked like this:

I added some leather clasps in the front, a lot of studs, tulle and straps. left and right I just cut the corset open with zig-zag scissors and added a "lining" made from tulle. Hips-problem solved.

The colours of the rest of my components are in perfect harmony with my corset, don't you think ;)

An some of the straps I strapped on the, perfectly ruined, cut off jeans pants.

 

The upper part of the Jeans was my handbag for the night, which can be worn over your shoulder as well as around your hips to ensure maximum comfort while dancing.
And I added some stuff too. Simply black is not enough for this night ;)

I hope you like it, it was a totally new experience for me to actually destroy something I've sewn. But I liked wearing it, so I think it was worth it.

drumrrrroll - new clock for our livingroom

We've got a new clock!
Finally!
After two years it was about time.

We saw a really amazing clock in the "Drumhouse" Shop and decided to make one for our livingroom.

We (so to say: My BF and me, I think my BF actually did all the work, I just sat there and was nice to look at XD ) bought a clock unit and a 8" drumhead and *rrrr* <- drumroll Here it is! Our new clock :)



And of course, Isaac had to help us taking the pics:
