Finds: Disney Princess Headbands

Clicking away on the laptop and I find these pretty headbands. 

Incredibly creative, I was wowed at ribbons formed into animals, but even more with these Disney Princesses! 

All adorable!

Hey, dats me.

I absolutely  love the colours going on with each headband!

Finds: DIY Plarn fish

I've always heard of people knitting with the good ol' fashion yarn but never plastic! 

'Plarn' is made from strips of plastic bags. 

I've seen images of finished products made out of plarn and always thought it was a bit odd looking... But this fish is beautiful!

Genuine Mudpie has provided a tutorial on how to make this pretty fella! 

Check it out here.

Finds: Orange Candle

I've been subscribed to Instructable's mailing list for a couple of years now and the ideas that come from that site is amazing! Here's one.

A candle from an orange.........................!

Not only is it the cutest thing but it has a pleasant citrus aroma and lasts up to a day!

I need to try this out. 

How to here.

Finds: Mr.Button

I saw these the other day and thought that they were quite odd and wondered why there were so many holes in odd places!

John Caswell says:

'Mr Button' adds a little character to an object that often goes unnoticed.'

After seeing the next image I realised that they were buttons! 

I thought this idea was absolutely adorable! 
Just by adding a little colour when threading the buttons, moustaches and eyebrows can be created!

These buttons can be purchased here

Finds: Custom Toys from Children's Drawings

I was linked this article from my big sister the other day.

Child Own's Studio creates plushies based on childrens drawings.

Once sent an image of the child's drawing a quote of how much the plush will be will be sent which would vary around $60~130 AUD depending on the level of detail.

Child Own's Studio will create the toy based on what material, the slouch and stuffing of the toy that the customer would prefer. 

This one is my favourite!

Finds: Realistic Japanese Food iPhone Cases

My sister's friend had gone on a trip to Japan and she was in awe seeing pictures of fake food being displayed outside restaurants in Japan....

iMeshi cases produced by Strapya uses these plastic foods as a decoration on iPhone covers.

Each month Strapya releases an iPhone case decorated with traditional Japanese food.

These cases are unbelievably realistic and (even though I don't like Japanese food..) mouth watering!!!

Look at that tempura case! Mmm!

But the downside is that, the camera will be covered on some cases so you'll have to remove the case before you take a picture!

They're $50.63 AUD (3990 JPY) each!

You can check out these cases here:

They even have business card cases with these realistic plastic foods on it!

 Yummy!

Don't you want to be just like this flashy guy!

Well I think these cases are adorable ☺

Finds: Ribbonesia

Hi!

I thought this was incredible, I had to share it.

Inspired by the wildlife since 2008, Baku Maeda had come up with an idea to wind papers and ribbons without folding it.

These are a few of my favourite sculptures the Ribbonesia Project Team had created since they had started...

Amazing, right?

Finds: Weave Silk

While browsing the internet I found this site via How About Orange.

http://weavesilk.com/

Make any click+drag movement of your mouse and you can watch the magic of silk forming before your eyes.

Here's my art work in action:

I tried to create the same movements as the ones the creators had produced... But it was too hard :(

Pretty none the less! I wish they had a wallpaper feature though where you can download your own artwork as a wallpaper :(
