~ crown for the princess ~

12 September 2009
when the little princess wants a crown,
the little princess gets a crown.

…made out of corrugated cardboard.

it’s been weeks since aina talk about crowns everyday. since there is no real crown, she’s been wearing an imaginary pretend crown. one time, she made a crown out of left-over paper from a papercut doll i made for her. it only lasts a few hours before it ripped to pieces.

so, two days ago, we visited Art Friend and bought the supplies:

  • a silver corrugated cardboard, for easy bending. $6, but i think we can make 5 crowns out of this…
  • a pack of cellphone decoration jewels for blingbling effect. easier to use, because it comes with sticking backs. and for 2.5 bucks, it’s cheaper, too!

today, while waiting for the soup to cook, we all gathered in the craft room, cutting the cardboard and pasting the jewels. aina enjoys sticking those little jewels. she even got an extra bracelet!

this stuff probably not going to last long, but it sure fun to make! and cheap, too!

umur segini pas lagi enak nih, yas! waktu lebih kecil sih, ga ada waktu dan dia juga ga appreciate barang yang kita bikin. but now, she’s like our needy (but fun) little client who keeps us thinking and making stuff to keep her happy. and so far, she looooves what we make for her… happy client = happy designer :)
