Anastassia Elias is a painter, illustrator and collage artist and her Rouleaux dioramas showcase just one of her many talents. She creates tiny scenes inside the tubes by attaching paper cutouts to the side walls with glue and tweezers. The placement of her characters and objects creates a 3D scene and light travels through the tubes to create motion and shadow. “I cut the small paper shapes that I stick inside the toilet paper rolls,” explains Elias. ”I use tweezers to manipulate the paper shapes.

The party plane is about to take off. Yes my latest novelty cake creation is an airplane birthday cake that I made on the weekend for my little nephew, Dash's, first birthday. In addition to all the usual festive celebrations, my sister Chris has visited from Ireland with her husband Fergal and little son Dash. On the weekend I went to stay at my parents' place for lots of family fun. Dash not has only come half way across the world in an airplane but also has travelled around Europe quite a bit for a little baby. Fergal festooned the house with balloons and happy birthday signs. Dash had his aunts, uncles, cousins and extended family present. My mum has just got her first rooster in the backyard. Mum had prepared lots of good food. Airplane Birthday Cake « Andrea Meyers.

Mommy, you make the cake, and Daddy, you decorate it.” A crashed airplane? Huh? Parking Garage from a Box. In case you didn’t know, we love cardboard boxes around here. Quite often when the UPS man delivers a box, K starts spouting off all the things he wants me to make out of our new box. K keeps asking me for a blacktop (aka road), but we’ve already made one, so I wanted to try something new. In the two days we’ve had this, K has spent several hours driving his cars up and down the ramp and parking them on the upper level. Crafts are always more rewarding when the one you make it for enjoys it :) School Bus from a Box. Shopping for car seats stresses me out beyond reason. It took hours of research to decide on a booster for K because of all the variables, and when I did finally find one I was ok with, the next day, a similar one came out on sale for half the price.
Being cheap as I am, I took the first one back (unused) and bought the second one. As an added bonus, the second one came in a huge box! We’ve already made a cardboard boat, and a car, so I was thinking rocket, but as soon as K saw the box he exclaimed that he had to have a school bus. How To Make Colored Rice - Dose of Happy.

Birthday Crafts. וואו! באיזו מהירות חלפה עוד שנה! בלי שהרגשתי, הפעוט הפך לבן 3. ממש לא שמתי לב. פשוט הייתי כל כך עסוקה בהכנות לחגיגה... אפילו דרישות מיוחדות לא היו לו (לא שבאמת טרחתי לבדוק...) לא פיראטים, לא פיטר-פן, לא דייגו, ומזל שלא יובל המבולבל. כל שהטריד את מנוחתו היה מתי הנר בצורת הספרה 3 שהוא קיבל מהגננת יהיה דולק על עוגה. ובכל זאת, הילד כבר בוגר, ו(כשנוח לנו) הוא גם שותף להחלטות שקשורות אליו, אז שאלתי אותו: "בא לך סוסים ביומולדת? " והוא הסתכל עלי בעיניים מלאות בהבנה וענה: "אמא, אני חושב שסוסים זה רעיון מצויין" אחחחח, כמה נחת! הגבר מיד קיבל משימה שעד היום הוא עדיין מספר לכל מי שמוכן לשמוע כיצד עמד בה בגבורה: נסע לדרום תל-אביב. קנה 35 מקלות של מטאטא.
במחיר פשוט מציאה. בתוספת מחיר קטנטנה הסכימו לנסר לו אותם לאורך שאשתו פקדה. העמיס את כל 35 המקלות באוטו. נסע את כל הדרך חזרה לצפון העיר והעלה אותם הביתה. אני, לעומת זאת, כל מה שעשיתי במשך כמה ימים היה: גזרתי, תפרתי, מילאתי, הדבקתי והפכתי 35 מקלות מטאטא לסוסים.
