decoupage

holaaa mari mari melihat hasil karyaku di workshop arisan crafter bandung. ciamik yaaah hehehe minjem kata2 sherly temenku :p

udah lama pengen belajar decoupage, tapi ko kursusnya mahal2 yah.. eee ternyata pas arisan kmaren harganya sangatlah terjangkau. langsung daftar !

 ini alat2 yg dibutuhkan :
- kuas
- lem. bisa pake lem putih + air
- barang yang mau dihias : talenan, tas, meja, kursi, you name it! intinya, ketika kita tempelin kertas di atas bidang barang, jangan sampai ada udara terjebak di kertas. kita sapu pake kuas.
- kertas yang mau ditempel. sebenernya kmaren tuh istilahnya kalo ga salah servietten, karena kertasnya dari kertas tissue yg ada gambarnya.
- kertas koran untuk alas
- gunting untuk menggunting kertas
- lem furnish. bisa dibeli di toko cat atau toko kayu, cari yang water base.


dan inilah hasilnyaa ^^ mayan lah buat pemula hehehe

buat yang mau belajar decoupage, hati2 yaaa bikin ketagihan :D

sang sayur

look what i made :

this is a garlic plushie, ordered by Sherly. so cute right? this garlic is a character from Sang Sayur comic.

have you heard about Sang Sayur? its the title of a comic made by Sherly, one of a few talented Indonesian comic artist.

I'm not really into comic or manga (last time i read it was Conan or Kungfu Boy when i was in college haha) but I think Sang Sayur offers something different from others. it contains local content but still manage to be highly appreciated by global audience. Sang Sayur is the only Indonesian manga who was nominated for International Manga Award in 2007. Furthermore, recently The US Library of Congress (the oldest federal cultural institution in the United States which also the largest library in the world) has invite Sang Sayur to be their collection. what an honour..

no more talk. just read. and if you want to have it, you can buy it here. Let's support our local product!!
