Ikat Spatula Beginnings

 The weather was deceptive this past weekend. 

It tricked me into thinking that the lovely Spring-like temperatures would continue into this week. 

Nope, not at all. Not even slightly. I was freezing today. Silly ol' me!

A few alterations will have to be made before my 4:30pm class this evening.

High-waisted jeans, Savers//Oxfords, Goodwill//Floral Swimsuit, Savers//
Cardigan, Savers//Beanie, Burlington Coat Factory

 My jeans are covered in sawdust and I probably reek of burnt wood. 

And what do I have to show for it? A spatula. Yes, a spatula. I made it!

Actually, it's still a work in process...but I figured I'd show it off instead of changing out my jeans.

 I decided not to get creative with the spatula's form, seeking to focus more on its embellishments.

I kind of wish I had decided to get creative with the form. I forget that I'm no good at drawing.

Anyways, I was inspired by a diamond Ikat design, which I then burned into the wood.

Next class, I'll probably paint it and try not to ruin the burnt aspect.

 Oh hey, this spatula also doubles as a prop!

A prop for making funny faces.

Looking up towards the Spatula gods, hoping for a successful finished product!

Until next time, ♥.
