Anniversaries, arts, and holidays

May 10, 2022. | No. 71

Hello, dear friends of Read!

I've been busy these days, in class, with thousands of homework assignments and helping my mom around the house a bit, as well as doing arts and crafts. Which is what I will show you today.

I love making crafts, painting, cutting, gluing, drawing, using all my creativity to make things beautiful. And to be honest I would be happy working on it, I love creation, writing, drawing, designing and creating new things with my hands. It makes me feel happy, and so free that I love it.

The crafts I have been making are due to two events. Mother's Day, and the 110th anniversary of the school where my mom works. And coincidentally I also went to elementary and high school there, so helping her is important to me.

Butterflies made in foami, for Mother's Day.

For Mother's Day we made butterflies with magnets to stick on the refrigerator, they are made in foami. The process is somewhat simple to do, although it takes some time because you have to hold the pieces until they dry. Otherwise, they move, and look bad. So you have to make them with patience and love.

My little pots of foami for my refrigerator.

Using some of the material that my mom used, there were some scraps left over. So I made some little pots of foami for my refrigerator at home. They turned out beautiful, so I also made a set of 4 pots for a friend. As you can see they are cactus inside them, and some abstract shaped bushes that I invented. They look more like seaweed than bushes, but I love them.

Here are my pots already stuck on my refrigerator.

One thing that is important about foami in my personal opinion, is to use different types. I used frosted and unfrosted foami. Also giving them details with markers or paints gives them a nice finish. As well as using a hot iron to make that bulging effect that looks great.

Other things I've been doing with my mom and sister are 80's ornaments. As decorations for the school, because of their anniversary.

The Pacman game made of cardboard and paper.

-We made the Pacman game, and other things. We used recycled paper, recycled cardboard, paints, and glue.

Working with this type of material is simple, the secret is in the details so that it has a good finish.

And well, that's what I've been doing these days, I hope you like it as much as I do.
