starting collections

here another idea for a collection:

OLD TRAVEL BAGS!

I love this idea!
I only own a very small one in red and I wouldn't sell it for the world. That is how much I am attached to it.
I know it belonged to my mother and it is the cutest suitcase I have ever seen.
The idea of collecting "luggage" came to me exactly because of the love I have towards that suitcase. I like it too much so that I never use it. It is just sitting in my closet - because I never want to loose it.

Displaying the objects you like, sounds a lot more fun to me!

I collect... Keys!

and these are my two new babies!!! ;)


actually a great idea to display my collection came from a movie called "mirror mask"
in one of the scenes the main character is desperately looking for a key that opens a specific "crate" where a token is hidden. There is a sort of tower of cast or some other type of material and every piece has a small keyhole
hmm

I guess you have to see it to understand it
but it looked quite impressive and not very hard to do!

if you are an excentric person, capable of building such a piece with keyholes
I bet that it would look rather interesting =)

If I'd known you were cheating me,
I would have saved myself and set you free
If I learned you weren't the loving kind,
I would have saved some peace of mind

My friends told me you would break my heart,
And never last, we would surely part

There's no smoke without fire,
Baby, baby you're a liar

People talk in this little town,
Rumours keep spreading all around
And now word has it you've been foolin' me,
I'm so blind that I cannot see

My friends told me never to believe in you,
You never loved me you were never true

There's no smoke without fire,
Baby, baby you're a liar

No there's no smoke without fire
Baby, baby you're a liar
You're a liar
You're a liar
You're a liar
Baby you're a liar

There's no light without a flame,
There's no use in having you to blame

No
There's no smoke without fire
Baby, baby you're a liar
You're a liar

displaying collections

I have been wondering what is the best way to display my collection... have not found the best way yet. But after searching I need the urge to start collecting even more items.
walter benjamin has an essay about collectors, which is just the right think piece on this topic!

I like that the clocks are not displaying time. They are purely aesthetical.

A friend of mine collects vintage & romantic looking tea cups. I think she does not display them though.

here a pict. of the nicest collections one could start:

I can also see myself collecting antique lamps!!!

and last but not least you can mix different objects and collect by size, age, color etc.

making the Machinarium figurine ^^

Making Josef the Robot from Machinarium =)

TOOLS:

You will need Sculpy/ Fimo:

I had a bit of yellow fimo, which I did not need. The color is up to you, because you will dye it silver in the end!


The following tools come in handy

STEP 1:

kneed the Fimo and mold it to necessary shapes:

1st the head
(size determines the rest of the bodysize)

you can make a sausage type of shape and then cut it off

then another "sausage" cut at both ends so you get a cylinder


Step 2:

connect both head and body with a pin and leave the "antenna" sticking out!

with another pin, which you cut in two, add the legs

it should look like this:

you can also add shoulders with fimo
and the arms I also made by cutting and beding 2 pins.

Step 3:
The eyes can done by indenting the shape with a pen.
After that you should mold two smaller pieces of fimo in a cup size form which you also indent with a pen.

You can add feet if you like!

Step 4:
Now the only thing missing is the antenna and the stripes/mouth, buttons screws and bolts!
this is my result:

Step 5:

Bake it in the oven, while following the instructions of your sculpy/fimo material and voilà!

On the next day I sprayed the little Josef with a chrome colored spray:
