Coffee Project (II)

Finally I am done with this project. I am so happy to see the results. I hope my handmade will make the Maharaja's booth the most attractive booth in the exhibition. That's the whole purpose of the decorations. Catch attention and huge business deal.

Rings and Earrings of Coffee flowers

And thank you so much to my husband for helping me to finish this project. Big hug and kiss from me ^,^ You are always the best!

Glossy finishing



Coffee Project

Tonight my working table is full of coffee flowers and coffee fruits, still lots more to make. Hope I could make it on time for the exhibition. Below is the picture of the coffee fruits before I apply glossy finishing on them. Real coffee fruits are shiny. I use Japanese Padico Gloss Sealer for the finishing. It is easy to use, quick-dry and doesn't smell. They are also available in my shop :)

coffee fruits almost the real size

The coffee flowers are for rings and earrings. Today I uploaded the picture of the rings. I will upload the picture of the earrings as soon as I am done with them.

Coffee Flowers as rings

Flowers on frame

Traditional arrangement

Suddenly I just had this idea of making our Indonesian traditional flower arrangement on a postcard-size frame. I love the fragrance of Jasmine flower and the exotic look of Plumeria, so I decided to combine them together. Obviously you can't smell any fragrance from clay flower, but you can apply aromatherapy oil on them. I applied my favourite Teddy's Dream (from Lovely Lace) aromatherapy oil on most of my clay flower arrangements, and my customers just love it.

 



 

 

Orchid, Roses and Tuberoses arrangements

 

I apply my favourite aromatherapy oil on this arrangements. The soothing fragrance of the aromatherapy oil fill the whole room in my little shop. It helps to release your bad mood :D

This is arrangement of Phalaenopsis, Yellow roses and Tuberoses.

 

 

 

Hydrangea, Roses and Lilac

 

I love this sweet soft color combination. I also apply drops of aromatherapy oil on this one. Love it ^^

 

 

 

All of these clay flowers are made without using mould and cutter.

Materials : Hearty soft clay (white and colored pack)

 



Welcome Signboard

This is one of my favourite Welcome Signboard. I hang this at one of the corner in my little shop.
Yes! the welcome sign is made of clay, too ^^ . I painted it to get the real woody effect.

Coffee

I am working on this "coffee" project ordered by one of Indonesia famous coffee trader Maharaja. They will use the fruits as decorations for their exhibition in this coming April 2013. The flowers will be applied as rings and earrings.

"Not many people aware of how does coffee flowers look like, we want to share the knowledge with them", said the owner of Maharaja. I really think this is a very good idea, because it's also my first time seeing coffee fruits and flowers!!!!! This is a very challenging project. I love it ^o^

 

 

Greetings from Indonesia!
