Plant creations by Elsita

One of my favorite blogs is Elita's, her voice is a small and delicate one, yet powerfully wondrous. She walks a delicate line between make believe and reality with a rare honesty and sincerity. I just discovered her "plant creations" but whatever she posts I love and wanted to share it with you.

DIY Earrings made from recycled household plastics

Kiwi Hoop Earrings
DIY jewelry - made out of discarded empty plastic containers pulled from the re-cycle bin - are fulfilling my winter fashion blues. The characteristics of this material lends itself to my hip fashionable whims, due to the -- colorful graphics and textures of the containers -- the lightness, which allows you to pile it on in bulk for a super over sized proportion -- and the freedom to cut and experiment with no waste - just toss your discards back in the bin and enjoy your successes. Also, part of the camp look is that the mix of household products is so tongue in cheek and makes it especially interesting to style up or down. With a bold flourish of dramatic proportions, and the hope to brighten up your wardrobe in the middle of the winter, here are photos and the How-Tos of my current two favorite earrings of the moment -- The Candy Striped Rubber Drop Earrings and The Kiwi Hoop Earrings! Candy Striped Rubber Drop Earrings
Materials:
Selection of empty plastic containers;
2 x 6" long orange rubber band
2 x silver, pierced earring loops
Scissors
How-Tos:
Cut oval shapes out of empty plastic containers: 5 x 2" long ovals cut from a red and white striped yogurt container ; 3 x 1 1/2" long ovals cut from a transparent plastic shampoo container; 7 x 2 1/2" ovals cut from transparent, light blue water bottle container (follow my lead or use it as a guide and do your own thing.)
Punch a hole at one end of all the ovals.
Pass a 6" long orange rubber band through all the ovals, gathered into an assorted, mumble jumble order.
Slip a silver pierced earring hook through the rubber bands to hold them together.
Now make the other earring.
They dangle and feel very 60s modish.Kiwi Hoop Earrings
Materials:
For these earrings, I used 4 different items, a silver clip-on earring gadget; one of those iridescent mesh bags used for fruit that my kiwi came wrapped in; an empty cottage cheese container with green graphics printed all over it; and 2 pieces of 1 1/2" x 5" long organza ribbon with lots of beads and sequins sewn on it that I found in my stash of ribbons. I wouldn't expect everyone to have all the exact same elements, so use my version as a guide and put it together with your favorite colors and with what you have or find (hunting is part of the design adventure.)
You also need some scissors, needle and sewing thread to match the organza and glue for plastic.
How-To:
Sew the organza ribbon together to form a soft loop with a 5/8" overlap.
Cut the iridescent mesh bag in half. Take one half and slip it through the organza ribbon, knot it twice on top, and tuck loose ends inside the organza ribbon. Sew the ends together snugly.
Cut the empty plastic container round and round, 1/4" thick, so that you have a long continuous piece. Slip it into the other end of the organza, wrapping it around several times (mine wraps around 5 times) and then glue ends together with about a 1/2" overlap.
Securely attach your clip earring gadget on the back side of the net knot.
Make the other earring.

Pretty Scarf with a Crocheted Edging

I am crazy about scarves and shawls and rarely leave the house without (at least) one in tow. I collect them, make them and re-design them. They are a way to enjoy patterns and textures with individual style ... and on this cold winter day, I’m huddled inside and inspired to add some newness into my wardrobe so I’m making scarves with lavish edgings. I've lined up a row of scarf projects along the carpet to plow through and fortunately I have finished the first one and have an event tonight, so I will wear it out -- instant gratification!
"Pretty Scarf with a Crocheted Edging" was actually in my fabric pile and started as an unfinished piece of printed vintage organza from either the 50s or the 60s. The flowers and colors are romantic, so I choose a yarn for the crocheted edging in that spirit - a multi colored sock yarn in a softly blending shade. Here are the How-To-Steps:
Materials:
Printed silk organza yardage (about a 30” (76 cm) square)
Silk thread in a shade that blends with silk organza
A ball of stocking weight yarn that looks wonderful with your material (I used “Regia”, color 5264, 50g, 125 m from Schachenmayr, 75/25 wool/poly)
A small crochet hook of suitable size for the yarn you choose
Basic sewing supplies

How to:
Machine zig-zag all around the outer edge of the silk organza fabric with silk thread (or even better, hand roll the edges).
Establish a working edge by hand sewing a row of blanket stitches all around the edge with the silk thread.
Press.
Make a row of single crochet stitch, working one stitch into each blanket stitch.
(Here is a photo of the work in progress, plopped onto another one of my friends' whimsical Memphis platters.)
Then ...just add a lush crocheted edge until you have used up your ball of yarn. Choose an edging that suits your experience and timeline. I would have loved to have created something very elaborate but time and ability led me to what I did, which is to create little arches by chaining a length of 5 (the next row 6 stitches, followed by 7 stitches) of length, that I caught in place by inserting into the next loop.
Finish loose threads with a few extra stitches, clip and steam edging as needed.

Memphis vase with the sunburst charm

I adore the whimsical, contemporary boldness of the Memphis vases. My friend's collection always continues to dazzle me. Here are some photos of my favorite "trinket" the re-cycled bottle necklace -- and one of their vases!
