Mending matters🪡 You don’t have to throw something away just because it has holes. Mend it, don’t follow a pattern, but do follow your creativity. Throw rules out the door and just do what you want. Don’t sew? Hire a sewist and mender( hi, it’s me) to create a piece of custom art for you, their creative heart will thank you and their small businesses needs and deserves to be hired for custom work 💕🪡 This is a custom mend job I did for a customer on a sweater they loved with many holes that the moths chomped on ♻���🧵

A while back I posted about the overabundance of mid-2oth century costume jewelry I have inherited. One response to that post was a suggestion that I make it into hangable wall art with a frame and pieces fastened to an attractive background (such as black velvet).
I am definitely going to do that, as soon as I can get my hands on some shadow boxes. The other issue, though was a few nicer pieces, such as the matched set of jade earrings and cufflinks that my parents gave each other for their wedding.
Tumblr media
They're too nice to mix in with costume jewelry, so I'm going to get the earrings remade into pendants, and then keep one for myself and send the other to my sil. It can be a memento of my mother. The cufflinks could go to my brother and my son - if I can figure out a way to repurpose them that they would actually like.

Restauro e pintura para as fofetes vintage que chegaram recentemente.
Um pouco desgastadas, algumas marcas vão ficar e outras que eu alterei, acho que ficaram ótimas.
Tumblr media
Depois do banho demorou alguns dias para secar completamente, eu deixei na varanda tomando sol.
Tumblr media
A Kewpie estava com os olhos rachados, depois que eu removi a pintura original vi que o defeito estava mesmo era no plástico.
Fui lixando com lixa esponja da 3M e com broca de polir.
A coelha que estava com a ponta da orelha mordida também foi lixada e polida.
Com as superfícies bem polidas passei uma camada de verniz para começar a pintura.
Tumblr media
Primeiro passo é umas boa base de tinta que parece branca mas não é, coloquei um pouco de cinza e amarelo.
Tumblr media
Quando removi a tinta original deixei um pouco da pintura anterior, assim serve de guia. Dá para ver que a original não era muito simétrica mas mesmo assim usei como base a foto antes do restauro para me ajudar a localizar os cílios, que na minha opinião é o mais difícil de pintar.
Dessa vez eu apliquei a tinta azul, só a base e decidi traçar os cílios com lápis pastel e depois passar a tinta acrílica. Foi umas boa começar pelo centro do olho, assim todos os fios ficaram harmônicos.
Tumblr media
Fiz também as sobrancelhas e umas marcações para a tinta azul escura.
Tumblr media
Para aproveitar bem as tintas usei as mesmas cores na coelhinha.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pintar lábios e bochechas acho mais fácil, e nesse caso as duas bonecas têm traços bem marcados que ajuda a definir o contorno. Também usei acrílica e pastels.
Tumblr media
Meu marido se preparando para passar o verniz, que sim, é bem tóxico e precisa se proteger.
Ficaram prontas pro Natal.
Muito fofas, faz muito tempo que eu queria uma Kewpie grande, essa é fofa, macia e com a cabeça do tamanho da Blythe.
A coelhinha é igual a um re-ment que eu tenho que também é uma graça, adorei ter restaurado essas duas preciosas.
Um cuidado e carinho com que já existe, a curadoria de material plástico sempre com essa coisa de fofura e um pouco de melancolia, a infância que se transforma mas também se perde dentro da gente.
Eu gosto de plástico, vendo ele dessa forma de brinquedo eleva a condição para um material que tá longe de ser nobre mas aqui pode representar resgate, atenção, cuidado, memória de infância.
Não é nobre mas é versátil. Se cuidar, dura. Se não cuidar, vira lixo que demora para desintegrar. É esse caráter antagônico que fica mais evidente em brinquedos antigos, que já foram descartados, talvez mais de um vez.
O resgate que me atrai, a atenção de melhorar os detalhes, preservar o que existe e guardar memórias passadas.

Hey so does anyone have an idea what to do with like. A shitton of denim fabric
I have a lot of jeans that I wanna upcycle. Problems: they're all blue, and I don't wear anything but black jeans. I have two denim jackets already so I don't want to make another one. I also have enough bags already.
What the hell do I do man
