me and my friends : a tiny mask party

Last Friday me and Miss Dindie helped out a girlfriend
in her painting class by come up with a mask making
idea. We bring along all of our craft supplies and run
that one hour class with 15 kids! That's pretty overwhelming
I must confess since that would be my first art making
with children class.

I would love to do more of these classes though,
because I love to surround myself with children and
learning things from them. Aren't we all?

me and stamps : my own!

yes, i make a batch of indonesian stamps with my
own photo. it only takes me like 15 minutes
to make and they have so many choices of
stamps to pick! I couldn't use this one to
send mails because of th value, but i will
sure make others that I can send a postcard
with. Yay!

me and my etsy: some framed originals

 

I have framed some of my originals on this
beautiful wooden frame handmade in Bali.
Some of them already at the shop ready
to be hang at your favorite corner or send
as a gift for your favorite person.

I will keep adding these batch so please
do come by often at htpp://www.vantiani.etsy.com
Enjoy!

me and mecca : their fancy camels

These camels are mostly hang around at the mountain
areas where mostly visited by people about to pay
respect to a cave, cemetery or statue around it.
I feel sad actually seeing how heavy these camels
being accessorized(?) by their owners just to look
fun and pretty to attract those people to ride them.

I mean look at all those carpets and other dangling
things they put on them! Imagined walking up and
down the mountain with those things PLUS someone
riding on your back? There.

me and ubud : their handmade plushies

These are just some fabric plushies made of scraps
that I often see at my regular seamstress or at the
market. There is one more creature that I forgot
to take picture of it but these four I hope it's pretty
clear to show creative and fun those local Ubud
crafters are:)

Oh the third picture is actually a sling bag too!
And my favorite is the second picture while I
bought one of those clowns a long time ago
and just loving it!
