Small crafts

Greetings followers!
I did some crafts before my trip to Tampere. I wanted something unique to wear :)
So, I decided to make a new headdress, which would match with my outfit.

It was very easy to make, I needed a bit of supplies: carton, pvc, satin, thread, comb, spiders, roses, latex and mourning veil. Most of this stuff can be found stores like Suomalainen kirjakauppa, or Tiger's shop, or shops like Tiimari was.( Any kind of crafting store ) Halloween stuff can be found even in food store.

I had a lot of fun while making this, I watched movies at the same time :) craft1 craft2
I made matching latex bracelets. It took me almost two hours to prepare these! Bracelets are easy to wear because of pressing studs.

New tableware

Greetings traveler!
My old candlestick broke, so I bought a new one. This new one is much higher than I realized, or maybe our table is too small :P
I liked the old candlestick, I bought it when I was still a student. It has served me well for many years, but now one of the branches broke. Five-branched candelabra looks stupid with four candle.

We decided with my boyfriend to buy a new set of dishes. Our old tableware were made in china-quality. However, it may be Iittala is made in china as well :P Because it is a Finnish design, I think it might be better quality ^^
We chose red and black, which is very suitable with other appliances. ( Link )

We found a new Moccamaster, which color is matching with everything now. We got it cheaper because the store was closing down, Moccamasters are pricey. I like a lot of metallic red <3

Schatten reunion - Look

Greetings !
I made a quick trip to Tampere.
I went to an event called Schatten reunion.
I had a pretty long drive ( 640 km in total back and forth) the return trip was absolutely horrible :D
The trip was worth it!
So, my look for evening was Atsuko Kudos latex dress, handmade black latex bolero, and handmade latex wristbands. I made myself also a "hat" with latex roses, plastic spiders, and mourning veil.
Few pictures from evening:
