A few days ago I saw a lady wearing a cartoon character necklace in the station and I thought it was kinda cute. But hey, why not make it funnier and more fun by using a real image of a person instead? I have 2 sisters that are very fond of doing jumping shots and I thought those shots could work well for this accessory. Of course you can use a standing (still) photo of yours but I think a shot with two hands up or any other gestures would make cuter necklaces. Let’s jump to the easy how-to!
Beberapa hari lalu, saya melihat seseorang memakai kalung dengan karakter kartun di stasiun dan saya rasa lucuuu banget. Tapi, supaya lebih lucu (atau konyol mungkin?), kenapa tidak menggunakan foto orang nyata saja? Saya punya 2 saudara perempuan yang punya hobi melakukan foto “melompat” di mana-mana dan saya pikir foto-foto itu cocok untuk tema aksesoris ini. Tentu saja anda dapat menggunakan foto berdiri biasa tapi saya rasa foto dengan kedua tangan diangkat atau gaya lain akan terkesan lebih lucu. Ayo dicoba!
What you need | Yang anda butuhkan:
- Photograph | Foto;
- Cardboard | Karton;
- Jump rings | Ring;
- Necklace chain | Rantai kalung;
- Marker or pen | Spidol atau bolpoin;
- Scissors or pen knife | Gunting atau cutter;
- Glue | Lem.
Step 1:
Draw the outline of the person in the photo with a pen for easier cutting.
Langkah 1:
Buat garis luar dari orang yang akan anda gunakan pada foto dengan bolpoin untuk memudahkan guntingan.
Step 2:
Cut out according to the line.
Langkah 2:
Gunting sesuai garis tadi.
Step 3:
Stick it on a piece of cardboard or corrugated board if you prefer a thicker one.
Langkah 3:
Rekatkan pada karton. Tebal karton disesuaikan dengan preferensi anda.
Step 4:
Draw an outline and cut it out again. Now you can do some design to the photo, adding stickers, marker doodles, ribbons, stamps, anything you like! (just like scrapbooking).
Langkah 4:
Gambar garis luar dan gunting lagi. Sekarang anda bisa mendesain aksesoris tambahan pada foto; anda bisa menambahkan stiker, coretan spidol, pita, stamp, atau apapun yang anda suka! (seperti melakukan scrapbooking).
Step 5:
Poke a hole at somewhere near the hands (one for each) with a needle, compass, safety pin or anything sharp enough and chain it!
Langkah 5:
Beri lubang di sekitar tangan (satu lubang untuk satu tangan) dengan jarum, jangka atau peniti dan pasangkan rantai kalung anda!
Wear it! Oh, now it looks like my sister is playing on a jump rope. A little request: if you ever make this, by all means, please do share an image of your snapshot necklace, I would totally love to see your fun shot!
Lingkarkan pada leher anda dan selesailah kalung foto ini :D Dengan rantai kalung rantainya, kakak saya seperti sedang bermain lompat tali. Sedikit catatan: Jika anda mencoba craft ini, jangan ragu-ragu untuk mengirimkan foto kreasi anda, saya akan benar-benar senang melihat kekreatifan foto-foto anda!
