Description
EDIT: Sorry, guys. My computer was being a butt and not showing this anywhere in my gallery that I could see, so I had to delete and resubmit. I don't mean to spam. D:It's a lame title, I know, but I can't really think of a good one right now. xD
I didn't have much internet access two days ago, so this little bottle is the product of it all! It's a total of 5 hours of work: hand-cutting and folding all these little stars. There's about 110 of them or so in here.
Yes, that is a Starbucks Frappucino bottle. xD I really like the way they look.
I'm VERY proud of this jar. I really adore the way it came out.
The stars are puffier than I have ever made them, and they look so adorable! I really love this end product. 
The patterns and colors really go well together, I think, so this bottle won't be for sale. I don't think I could bear to part with it. XD(However, if you'd like a similar one, I'd be happy to make it for you. Just note me. ;D )
I actually didn't realize this was a bottle of "cool" colors in the spectrum until I got done and stepped back to look at it. O: I have another bottle, so I'm thinking of making one with "warm" colors as well to compliment it. ^^
I hope you all enjoy!
And yes, it's still a crappy photo. XD;;;

You take a latin class?! That's so cool. D:
And ha! Your mom doesn't need it. It looks better filled with stars anyway. u_u You should take pictures of them!

yeah i know haha one of my friends, she always folds them and since we take lots of the same classes we can fold together haha always lotsa fun!!
and yeah latin is only tough for the first three years then you have most of the grammar down and its just practicing translation.. i have had it for 4 years now and its not so tough anymore ^^ Aeneas trojanus est means Aeneas is a trojan, for example and that is the very first sentance you're told ^^
And you right my mom doesn't need them i wil take them all bwahahaha!

oh You are totally my kind!
I ALWAYS cut up my own magazine strips and colore paper stirps.

Starbucks bottles are the BEST! XD

I've been thinking of trying to cut up magazines to use as star strips, but I think my mother would end up killing me.
Awww. D: I live in the US, but the only star strips sold here are pretty far from where I live, so I either order online (too expensive!) or make my own as often as possible. You should try scrapbook paper. It works really well! And the stars tend to hold up a little better in my opinion.
Hell yes they are! XD I love the milk bottle shape.

Awww.
Well I'll look for scrapbook paper later on.
My little town is too far from normal citiesXD
and yes,, online orders are too expensive!
I buy little girl magazine's cuz they have LOTS of color!
ANd they end up pretty nice
Just in case you haven't seen my art, it's mostly that!
