MAASAI MARKET (part 1)

Hi...

The past weekend i went home and on Saturday i spent the better part of my day at the Maasai market. the last time i was there i was probably in high school which is like seven years back and you know that's way back. The market has not changed a lot but i assure you it was worth the visit. I am particularly very proud of how diverse it has become with all sorta people being seen. it was previously the Jua Kali sorta environment but i got to meet artists that were there not to just sell and go home but meet their customers, hand over business cards and also get orders from their customers. the market/ industry has improved people :)

I actually will share more pictures on the same Day with more details. questions for any one interested are welcomed (just leave a comment or email me)

My favorite necklaces
Ksh. 3000 ( 35$)

steel, brass and copper Earrings.

Key Holders

 I almost bought this paintings but my cash in hand wasn't enough to even bargain, plus who bargains paintings?

maa' women were not left behind, i expected to find many of this cultured women but i only spotted a few.

Key rings, necklaces, hair clips, bangles and necklaces.
key rings (key holders) are my favorite.
price range Ksh. 250 ( 3$ )

This resemble the ones awarded to Kenya Blog Awards Winners right?

PS. i want to be nominated in  2015 (short term Dream)

EASIEST ELASTIC BANGLE TUTORIAL

Hae loves...

Today i share with you one of the easiest way to make a bangle.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

1. ELASTIC BANDS

2. BEADS

3. SCISSORS

 Above are two different types of elastic bands that you will come across, both are effective but the black one is the most durable but costly.

STEPS

1. Measure a strand of the elastic band longer than your wrist size.

2. Hold one end of the strand with one of your hair clips (optional step). This is to hold your beads as in step 3.

3. Insert the beads until u sure they will cover your wrist.

4. Tie a knot (like two, one over the other) with the two end sides of the elastic band. 

5. Cut the left over strands.

And you are done.

Was it your easiest bangle DIY?

For more DIY, follow me on instagram @Shee_Art and i will take DIY requests in accordance to how i view them in terms of their ease and cost.

I hope this tutorial was helpful. 

:-) 

Thank you so much for stopping by.

XOXO

DRUM ROLLS please...

favorite piece i wear it all the time, the brass bead is soon multipurpose it works with like all my outfit. Bliss!!! :))

 and before i forget, they are adjustable, you wear it to your preferred length and i have a pic to elaborate more for y'all.
