Nayara

This was the gift for Nayara’s second birthday.

Nayara is my friend’s daughter. Her mother, Ms. Ika, is my workmate. We've known each other since we were working at the same school in Central Jakarta.

Nayara is so adorable. She has these big eyes which make her looks so cute.

And for her birthday, I would draw a portrait picture of her.

I started it by drawing her face on an A3 paper

Then, I thickened it by using charcoals. And tadaaaa!! This was the result. 

Her mother said that she really loved it. They put it in their living room. Happy birthday, Nayara :)

Pinata for Kimmie's Birthday

It was in February 2012. I was invited to my friend’s daughter’s birthday party in their house. Her name is Kimmie. Kimmie was turning into 5 years old. She really loved watching Angelina Balerina. So, I decided to make an Angelina Balerina piñata for her party.

First, I searched on the internet how Angelina looked like. 

(thanks for the picture http://angelinadancestudio.com)

The materials that I used are pink carton, pink shiny paper, glue and tape

I made and cut the pattern for Angelina’s body and face. I also made the cone for her nose to give a 3D look. Then, I filled the nose with sweets before I pasted it on the face.

For the dress, I divided it into two: the upper part or the tank top and the skirt.

I cut the tank top and pasted it on the body.

I joined the front and back patterns by using the tape. But I keep some parts open for putting in the sweets and used papers later.

I cut a long rectangle for her skirt and made it into rimple skirt.

I put the sweets and used papers in the piñata. Then, I closed the open parts by using the tape.

Then, I cut the ballerina shoes with pink shiny papers and paste them on her feet

For the final touch, I cut a long rectangle for her belt and put the flower in the middle.

And tadaaaaaa! The piñata was ready….

Since I didn't come to her party, I decided to give her an extra gift

Happy Birthday, Kimmie!
