Mosaic CD mirror



While cleaning the house I stumbled upon quite a stack of CD's that were not working anymore or that I didn't use. And having a cheap mirror frame lying around for a while, for which I did not have a use yet, I combined the two and made a mosaic mirror frame. Make one yourself, and recycle, save money and have fun!

 Start out with a plain frame.


Cut a load of CD's in pieces. First you can paint the frame any color you want, as a base.


With Elmer glue, or any other strong glue, start sticking the pieces in your desired pattern.


Add more...


...and more


And you're done!

How to turn old credit cards into pendants

 Cut an old credit card or gift card in four, pierce a small hole in one of the corners, sand it, and paint on it whatever you want with acrylic paint. When you're done painting, give them a coat of varnish or white glue. You can put a jump ring through the small hole and use them either as a keyring, earrings, pendants for necklaces etc. Mine are from left to right on the top picture: England, Ukraine, Germany and Finland. You can paint flags on them or make small artworks from them.

Peanut butter cups!

I have tried peanut butter cups for the first time this weekend. After I smeared the chocolate into the cupcake shapes I did not think they would actually harden, but they did! And so I have been eating too much chocolate lately. They taste like some sort of ice cream I used to have as a little kid, but I cannot remember which one! Actually I made some variations as well, with chocolate sprinkles and chocolate easter eggs in them. Some pictures of my 'artwork':

Day Zero

I have decided to take part in the Day Zero project. So at the moment I am still busy with making my list of 101 goals I want to have achieved in 1001 days. Right now I am at goal number 61. 40 goals to add to my list, and then I plan to start officially. Maybe I will post my progress in between, and update some of the goals in my blog here.

Lauri Ylönen - Heavy

This is the new single of The Rasmus' singer Lauri Ylönen. I have been looking forward to it for months, and he did not dissappoint me, I love the song, and I love the video. It's very creative and something new alltogether.
