Get the LOOK for Less!

Ok, this post has nothing to do arts & crafts. But I found this amazing site and I thought I'd share it with you.

The site is www.wholesale-dress.net and they sell clothes, shoes, bags, and accessories. Their items are all up to date in terms of style. And they are in super low prices. I plan to buy a pair of shoes from them (perhaps in a couple of days...just waiting for my paycheck. hihi!).

Fish Mouth Leather Boots [item#: U10081610] ONLY $10.27

They are also having a video contest right now. You may submit a video about their product/s, if you have already purchased from them. If not, you can make a video about their website.

Here is one entry. Please view and feel free to comment and share it! :)

Get the LOOK for Less!

The contest runs from June 18- Aug. 18th 2011. And the best video will awarded $1500.00.

If you're interested in joining, please visit the site for the contest rules and details.

Fake of the Day: Ice Cream

...Actually it's still a work in progress. I've been experimenting on materials and in creating the ice cream texture. I remember back in art school (circa 19-kopong-kopong), they use mashed potatoes as ice cream for food photography (not sure if they still use the same trick these days!). Well, I can't use mash potatoes or anything soft because I plan to use the fake ice cream for a different purpose ....like making a super cute bag chain out of it! :D

I'm miss messy Bessy! :p

Dang! I broke my ice cream scooper!

Still looks dry!!!

....looking good, yay!!! :D

Kinda looks like a melting yummy vanilla ice cream, don't ya think?
