.:Bbast:.Okies, well I'm hyped on coke (coka-cola nimrods XP) and DDR and Kareoke (sp?) (like DDR but singing)! I just went to friends house and we hung out and stuff, and it was fun! Plus I had a mondo cup of coke, so I have lots and lots of caffiene in my system!
Well, the second semester is starting out okay, but I'm already sick of it. Except for 2nd period! I finally get to take my ceramics class, and I absolutely LOVE it! we're on our first project, making pinch pot apothecary bottles (little medicine bottles) and I have soooo many good designs that I can't choose the one I want to do! here, I'll scan them in. . . while that's scanning, I'll just ramble on! I really want to take Tae Kwon Do, but I'm worried about expenses. Oh, and about ceramics, we have these journals that we have to fill up completely by the end of the semster, and I have such good ideas for it too! anyway, here's the pic!
Anyway, explanation time! Apothecary bottles are little medicinal jars that have removable stoppers in the top.
1)K, first pic in top left is a skull and crossbones. The pirates hat would be the stopper, based off of Capt'n Jack Sparrows hat!
2)Top right is a delicate bottle. The base is a flower and the stopper is a flower. In the flower sits a fairy, and there are 2 delicate handles on each side as well.
3)Bottom left is a Japanese Carry-out box. It will have japanese symbols all over it, and the handle is at the top, with the stopper being a pair of chopsticks!
4)bottom right is a wolf. It is howling at the moon, with the feet as the base of the bottle, and tail as the handle, and the head as the stopper.
5)Not pictured but in mind: I think it would be also cool if (anyone seen Memoirs of a Geisha?) I made a bottle that looked like the special Geisha hair ornaments/pins, and had some doo-dad or bauble as the stopper (see pics below)*points to hair pins*
Sorry for the long post, just had sooo much to say! And those were the best pics I could find of any hair pieces! Now vote for your favorite bottle idea please please oh please (reason I gave you numbers)! I can make any or all of them, so don't choose based on difficulty! I truly need help deciding! Please and thank you!.
