College life...

Hey!

I'm currently in college, learning new things, meeting new people, trying new things, having my up's and down's, etc.

And I probably won't have a lot of time from now on to write this blog, which is a shame, but I'll try my best to find the time to maybe create or watch a movie..

I'm studying Art history and Greek language, literature and culture...so I'm quite a busy woman these days.

I hope to see you in the following months..years..who knows..

Wish me luck, I'm gonna need it!

Bye,

Tesa

Movie Thursday: Make room for tomorrow

TRAILER

An elderly couple are forced to separate when they lose their house and none of their five children will take both parents in.









A must see movie. If you are human, you will cry.

Earring Holder DIY

Hey everyone!

I wanted to post this project for a long time, because I made my holder a long time ago, but I messed it up, so I didn't want to post my one, so I made another one for my friend, who has like a million earrings.

To make this holder you just need wire (the thicker, the better) and clay. 

I had a thinner wire, so I had to wrap it together that it became strong enough to hold the weight of the whole structure.

I think the process of making it is clear. 
The three vertical wires are crossed and joined with a clay disc with a horizontal wire. 

The lower part is made from a strong wire structure that holds all the wires up. And because you really want it secure and prettier just cover it with clay.
And because there is a lot of free space I decided to make a cup like end, where you can store smaller earrings or use it for more dangling earrings.

And for the final touch sand and paint :)

I came up with the design because I wanted something not so big, but big enough for all my earrings. So here it is :) It does take quite some of your time, but after you see the final product it's very nice and useful :)

Hope you like it! And if you make one for yourself, contact me! I'm curious what colors and ideas you'll come up with :)

I hope I will, because I want to keep going with this blogging thing :)

Movie Thursday: The Lego Movie

TRAILER

An ordinary Lego construction worker, thought to be the prophesied 'Special', is recruited to join a quest to stop an evil tyrant from gluing the Lego universe into eternal stasis.

 

 

This is one of the best animated movies I have seen so far! :D The animation, the story, the feelings... They really did a fantastic job! 

Everyone should see it, because it has a much greater message than just playing with the best toy ever made - Lego. It will make you laugh, but it will also make you cry.

Movie Thursday: 12 Years a Slave

TRAILER

In the antebellum United States, Solomon Northup, a free black man from upstate New York, is abducted and sold into slavery.

A true story that should make you feel all miserable inside. This movie is a reminder that slavery happened, but it never should.
