Things I do when I should be studying

Hey guys!

It's been way too long since I've posted something on here. I've been really busy with school and I also don't really like the stuff I've made lately.

Today I'm not going to show you drawings and stuff, but just some DIY's I did today because I really felt like doing that instead of studying for my economics test.

I hope you'll enjoy it!

The first thing I made was the cutie. I just tied the ribbon around a bobbypin and that's it! I think it's super duper cute and I love the romantic look!

For the second DIY I used this beautiful ribbon I bought last summer, but forgot about. This is also something for my hair. I use it to wrap around my bun.

 Last thing for my hair: a fillet!

 Last but not least, a necklace! I already post something about scarab beetles before, but I found this beetle today and I thought it was to pretty to be in a random drawer, so I used it for this necklace.

I hope you enjoyed reading this and that my English wasn't too bad...

Until next time (hopefully there will be a smaller gap between my post than between this one and the one before).

Exposition

Hi guys!
Today I had an exposition with school. Where? Well, in a retirement. And that caused some problems...

We needed to paint ourselves. Not like how we're looking now, but how we thought we'd look when we're 80.
You know, that was a bit scary. I know I'm getting older every day, but 80... That's pretty old!
I worked on it for weeks and this is the result!

I know, I'm scary! Those staring eyes, brr!

But there was another assigment. To make everything a little less old, we needed to draw or paint a big sillhouette. ''A young, strong and powerful person''. I don't know why, but I thought of an angel. And here comes the problem.

When I think of an angel, I don't think about those cute blonde girls (the mainstream angels). I think about black. And that's something eldery don't like.

Okay, I'll admit it, she's a bit scary. But I'm still mad my angel isn't allowed to be with her friends in the retirement. She's still in our art class :(

But there will be another exposition and there you can all see my angel in real life :)

If you want to see my and other's paintings, they're in retirment Croonematen in Doetinchem at the moment.
