Amantra Revamps Her Powder-Room

1/9/14


So I  began planning to re-decorate the bathroom for my apartment at which I resign, around Novemeber/ December of 2013. Here's an illustration, prototype of what I envisioned the bathroom to look like before beginning this "ASSIGNMENT" :

 I got the idea about splitting the shower curtain from the way my boyfriend's mom bathroom decor is  presented. One day while  we were going over to her home for a visit, during the time I started to take applied arts seriously. I noticed in her bathroom, her shower curtains were opened and parted, and I though It that was such an awesome idea to replicate.  At the last minuet I decided to add the black organza material (NOT PICTURED ABOVE) o cover the transparent part.

The color scheme for the overall bathroom is baby blue and black.






I embellished the Dixie cup holder first, a week before Christmas of last year. I used Baby blue soft woven fabric-ribbon, then I  overlapped it with the black lace to give the entire piece an expensive appeal.


Before I began my project I was grateful to use my new pattern cutting cardboard that I recently acquired. I love it so much because I can now make PRECISER cutting with the cool measurements guide on top.


 For the shower curtain I wanted to do something glamorous and gorgeous, so I decided to embellish the baby-blue shower curtains I purchased from the dollar store. The supplies used were:
⦁    4 1/2 yards of Black Organza fabric
⦁    3 yards of black lace
⦁    1 spool of 100% black polyester thread
⦁    1 spool of 100%  Baby-Blue polyester thread
 

I then took some  photos of the conceptual process:




So let's take a look at the whole appearance of the bathroom

you can see I decorated the three glass  vases (that I purchased from V.O.A for 90 cent each) on the counter top with black curling ribbon, glamorous $3-4 buttons from Joanne's Fabrics, and hot glued into place. Then for the flower arrangement part you see white, red, pink, baby-blue, blue-violet, black flowers. I put the spray painted black flowers towards the back, and threw in  glittery blue accents in each.  I  filled the vase  with clear oval marbles, and it turned out wonderfully.





































Here are pictures of the my final result, Thanks for viewing!!

1950's vintage style pink apron

 12/23/13

Have you ever wanted to dress like a housewife would, well I have. June Cleaver may have not been a favorite feminine inspiration of mines but i sure did admire her fashion sense,  and  poise. I have always had an appreciation for vintage, traditional fashion design, and pop culture that why I couldn't wait to present to you my creation  with haste!  


So I used this photo as a guide of what style apron i wanted to achieve. With good quality fabric purchased recently from the thrift store, me and Big Bertha (my sewing machine) began our journey to 3-D land with just a illustration and a theme ----PINK!

I worked on this project for about 9 days
I love the color pink so that was the main theme for the apron.






this apron is embellished with dark and light pink polyester ribbons, white medium trim. the back neckline is embellished with a medium jewel in the middle.This apron means a lot to me because it shows that my seamstress skills have drastically improved  with practice. Sewing does make me happy and it's where i feel the most comfortable
thanks for sharing my dream!!!!
