DIY Star Wars Snowflakes With winter upon us, we thought it would be fun to share a fun project of ours with you: snowflake designs with a Star Wars twist. We created the original set of designs in 2010 and now have the largest collection of designs and templates on the internet. With The Force Awakens opening in December, the latest installment of the Star Wars film series inspired us to create new designs such as the BB-8 and Kylo Ren. We had so much fun in fact that there are 33 designs altogether. Please share these on your networks using the hashtag #starwarssnowflakes and our handle @mattersofgrey. If you like Star Wars stuff, you might enjoy our Star Wars ringtones as well.

Core77 / industrial design magazine + resource / home Scroll Down for Colors Color is the most important part of interior decorating and as we are constantly finding color ideas everywhere we look, we need to be able to select color and make decisions to enhance the interior space we want to decorate. That entails choosing multiple colors, and can become overwhelming. That is why we have broken down the colors to show their color meanings, we profile, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white, gray and brown to help you understand how color makes us feel. We also show how to combine these colors using the color wheel, this is a simple formula to enable you to make informed color scheme decisions, red schemes, orange schemes, yellow schemes, green schemes, blue schemes and purple schemes. An easy way to learn about color is by video, we now have a small series of color videos, available to watch online. Are you looking for color inspiration, see how we get inspired by color.
Robert J. Lang Origami Scherenschnitte Lola Dupre Interview No computer used in the making of her collage; pure scissors, glue and a lot of patience. Intense work from this Glasgow based artist. We love it, and Jessica emailed her a few questions to get some insight into this talent whose works takes on avergage 25 hours to produce... She's also available for commissions. Wink wink. Tell us a little bit about yourself, Age? Name: Lola Dupre, Age : 28, Location, between several locations in Scotland, my main studio is in Glasgow and I also work and live in two remote studios in the far north of the country. Have you always created collage-based works? I have always created collage, since I was 9 or 10. I’m so curious about your process - it looks like you must use multiple prints of the same image. Indeed, I use multiple prints of the same image, printed on (typically) A4 and A3 paper. Using the right glue, brushes and scissors you can get pretty quick, and with a bit of practice you dont smudge any glue. Where/how to you source your images?
