Home to Mamlö

Just had a trip back to Malmö. I had my new camera with me so I took lots of pictures. My family and two other families were making candles together. Its an tradition that we had for a few years. We arrived on the Thursday night. On Friday did my bf and I go to Emporia to have lunch with my mother. I took some dumplings and spring rolls. with noodles. I also got to meet my sister and one of her friends that I also know very well.

After the food my sister and I went on a small shopping tour and believe it or not. My bf didn't wanna join first but he was the one that spent most money of us all! But he bought new super expensive new knives. I bought some new make up brushes and a new super cozy Christmas shirt with Darth Vader on it. I also visited my grandparents on the evening. But it was a very short visit because i we was suppose to eat dinner at home. I also colored my hair! it turned out super nice and I really like it.

Find some funny pictures on my camera so i decided to put them all together.
On the Saturday we made lots of candles. It took the whole day to make. We made them the old fashion way. I also eat so much food so I started to feel pretty ill when I was going to sleep. I'm not used to eat that much and especially not all that lactose. But I can tell that it was worth it!

Steampunk hat Tutorial

For a few days I made a steampunk hat and I decided to make a tutorial of the progress. I normally don't dress up as a steampunk and sorry if i break any specific rules. But I really like how it turned out.

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

1. Materials

The materials I decided do use is foam, contact glue (decided to use a glue gun instead because I was in a hurry), black and gold paint (think I used acrylic paint), a chain, a black ribbon and some LED lights.

I was suppose to use the green thing to make some decor but then I change my mind.

2. Cut out the parts

Use a part of thick foam (mine was 1cm) and cut out the parts for the base of your hat.

It can be a bit tricky to take out the perfect size of the part. I had 56 cm around my head and made a square 59*12cm  and two different circles one withe a hole in the middle. Make sure that the square fits around the smaller circle and inside the whole of the bigger one. Don't really know how to describe it but take a look at the photo and you will understand. (the square is much higher than 12 cm! made it smaller after the photo!)

If you are not sure what size you wanna make your hat I recommend to try make one in paper first.

3. Make a base of the hat

Glue everything together with hot glue or contact glue so it looks like this. 

Make sure that it fits your head.

4. Prepare lights

Make a hole in the hat and put the lights through it.

5. More foam!

Take the fin foam (2mm) and cut it in different square. 

Glue it on the hat base until it is totally covered with the thin foam

Remember to keep a hole for the light so you can put them on later.

6. Painting

You can pain the hat in what color you like but i started with a black base. remember to also paint the inside. 

Then I use a gold color and use a big brush (I actually use an old make up brush but use what you have at home) and then just very little color and put all over the hat. The messier the better so don't be to pedantic about it.

I also did the same to the black ribbon and there you can also se the brush that I was using.

7. Decoration

You can decor your hat however you want. I attach the ribbon around the hat and the LED around. I also decided to put on a chain on the front to make it look more awesome.

8. Battery

To keep the battery in place I just made a little box with some leftover foam and a ribon that I glued in the top of the hat.

9. Finish!

Try your new hat and be proud of what you have created. ;)

Exams over... or not

Exams should be over now but my teacher decided to move one of them to next week so I'm not done yet sadly. But I have take a few days break from my studding because I start to get head ache every time I try to study.  Yesterday was the CSN-sittning (Celeber spritnatt or something like that). It was really fun but I bite my tongue pretty hard so it still hurts a lot... But we won so it's ok.

I have also bought some new games that I have start playing. I wasn't introduced to gaming when I was younger so I have to play all the old good games now instead.
Lots of gaming hours are waiting fore me!
