type='text'>Si eres fotogénica...</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="left"&gt;It kills me that in Brazil there are actual fashion shows devoted to pop top creations. I love it. Some of them absolutely go way too far, but most of them are a beautiful example of creativity and talent. Here are some of what I think are the best concepts, stuff I’d like to try to make (the wide belt is going to be first). All photos are from &lt;a href="http://www.finissimo.com.br/"&gt;http://www.finissimo.com.br/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt;Me fascina, pero me faciiina, la cosa que hay en Brasil de pasarelas de verdad dedicados a las creaciones hechas con fichas. Me encanta. Por supuesto hay unas que pasan de lanza, pero la mayoría son un bello ejemplo de la creatividad y el talento. Aquí están unos ejemplos que en mi opinión son las mejores ideas, cosas que me gustaría intentar hacer. El cinturón ancho va a ser el primero de estos. Todas las fotos son de&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.finissimo.com.br/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.finissimo.com.br/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Fascina-me muito que em Brasil há desfiles dedicados ás criações com lacres de latinha. O adoro. Há umas que “pasan de lanza” (não sei traduzir-o em português), mas a maioria são exemplos bonitos da criatividade e do talento. Aqui estan uns exemplos que em minha opinião são as melhores ideias e são coisas que gostaria de tentar fazer. O cinto ancho (?) vai ser o primeiro. Todas os imagens são de&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.finissimo.com.br/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.finissimo.com.br/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300568099524066706" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SY9mmlfmPZI/AAAAAAAAAGg/uPNQeqAPuZU/s400/07.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300568102334000418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SY9mmv9ibSI/AAAAAAAAAGY/xP5wiK08xNo/s400/11.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300568092676203490" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 265px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SY9mmL-8I-I/AAAAAAAAAGI/_VzeAcHzn0g/s400/hbb.jpg" border="0" /&gt;(The purse/la bolsa/a bolsa)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300568094081680834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 265px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SY9mmROCBcI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/4Gf92GR_AvA/s400/kkkkkkk.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ok, now this one (below) goes too far.

By the weekend I had gone back to the rancho and never got the chance to look for one. Well, here’s the market anyway:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;Mi cuñada Gela me habló sobre ellas cuando la fui a visitor el verano pasado, pero era entre semana y el centro de abastos donde ella los vió era casi completemente vacío porque solamente se abra los fines de semana. Cuándo llegó el fin de semana ya había regresado al rancho y nunca tenia la oportunidad a buscar una. Bueno, aquí está el mercado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Minha cunhada Gela me falou sobre elas quando fui visitar-lhe o verão passado, mas era entre semana e o mercado era quasi completamente vazio porque somente esta aberto os fins de semana. Quando chegou o fim de semana, já tinha retornado ao rancho e nunca tinha a oportunidade a procurar uma. Bem, aqui esta o mercado:&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300560689858065298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SY9f3SVjs5I/AAAAAAAAAGA/PsBsb3u2r8c/s400/mexico+2008+145.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I guess it’s really a &lt;em&gt;centro de abastos.&lt;/em&gt; Anyway, Gela said she’d ask around as to how to make them, but she never got the chance before I left. I saw one on the street in Metztitlán, though, and it immediately made me think of gum-wrapper chains and sure enough, when I got back and looked it up on the internet, they are made of several chains sewn together. That cleared up a lot of confusion, because I couldn’t for the life of me think of how to weave them together vertically as well as horizontally. There’s a nice tutorial here: &lt;a href="http://candywrapperpurse.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://candywrapperpurse.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt; I’ve been collecting chip bags from my kids but I’ve been lazy to wash all the grease off before I start.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt;Gela me dijo que iba preguntar por allí como hacerlas, pero no tuvo la oportunidad antes de que me fui. Después, vi una en la calle en Metztitlán, y de inmediato pensé en las cadenas hechas de papelitos de chicle. Cuándo regresé, las busqué en el internet y van a creer que si son hechos de varias cadenas cosidas con hilo. Me liberé de la confusion porque ni siquiera podía pensar en como tejerlas por lo vertical tal como lo horizontal. Hay unas buenas instrucciones aquí: : &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://candywrapperpurse.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://candywrapperpurse.blogspot.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt; Yo he sido coleccionando las bolsas de sabritas de mis estudiantes pero tengo una flojera de lavarlas antes de empezar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Gela disse-me que ia (?) pedir a gente como fazer-las, mas não teve a oportunidade antes de que foi-me. Eu vi uma depois na rua em Metztitlán e imediatamente pensei nas correntes feitas dos papelinhos de goma. Quando retornei, as procurei no internet e sim são feitas de varias correntes cosidas com linha. Me liberei do confusão porque não tinha pensado em como tecer-las por o horizontal tal como o vertical. Há umas boas instruções aqui: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://candywrapperpurse.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://candywrapperpurse.blogspot.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; Eu tenho coletado muitas bolsas de batatas fritas de meus estudantes, mas estou bastante preguiçosa pra lavar-las antes de começar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Evidently there’s a lot of money in it, though. Look here: &lt;a href="http://www.nahuiollin.com/"&gt;http://www.nahuiollin.com/&lt;/a&gt; I can only hope the artisans who actually make this stuff get most of that money. Anyway, here’s a few other examples that I like (I didn’t make them): &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;Evidentamente hay bastante dinero en esto. Miren aquí: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nahuiollin.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.nahuiollin.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt; Solamente espero que los artisanos que hacen estas bolsas reciban la mayoría de este dinero. De todos modos, aquí hay unos ejemplos más que me gusta (no las hice yo): &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Evidente há bastande dinheiro nesto. Olhem aqui: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nahuiollin.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.nahuiollin.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; Somente espero que os artesanos que fazem estas bolsas recebam a maioria do dinheiro.

Seriously. I can’t believe that these dresses are done with crochet! With one exception, they all come from a Russian magazine called Журнал мод. I have no idea what that means, Russian not being one of my languages, but if the Cyrillic alphabet is anything like the Greek, then the delta-looking thing at the end of the second word might be a “d” which would make the second word “mod” which is similar to “moda,” which means fashion. But I could be totally wrong. The magazines have excellent diagrams, but I know that my crochet skills are not good enough, at least not yet, to make any of these things. I can tell you someone who can, though, check this out:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/02/andamento-do-vestido-de-croche-azul.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/02/andamento-do-vestido-de-croche-azul.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-azul-reta-final.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-azul-reta-final.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-maravilhoso-projeto-concludo.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-maravilhoso-projeto-concludo.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This woman has skills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;Este es increible, de veras. No puedo creer que estes vestidos son hechos de tejido. Todas las fotos menos una vienen de una revista rusa que se llama Журнал мод. No tengo ningún idea qué significa esto, como el ruso no es uno de mis idiomas, pero si el alfabeto cirílico es algo como el griego, la letra que parece un “delta” al fin de la segunda palabra sería una “d”, que haría la segunda palabra “mod” que es muy parecida a “moda.” Pero por supuesto puedo estar equivocada. Las revistas tienen dibujos excelentes, pero yo sé que mi abilidad para el tejido todavía no es suficiente para hacer estas cosas. Les puedo decir alguien que sí puede, miren esto:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/02/andamento-do-vestido-de-croche-azul.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/02/andamento-do-vestido-de-croche-azul.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-azul-reta-final.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-azul-reta-final.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-maravilhoso-projeto-concludo.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-maravilhoso-projeto-concludo.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;Esta señora sí tiene abilidad.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Este é incrível, de verdade. Não posso acreditar que estes vestidos são feitos de crochê. Todas as fotos menos uma vêm de uma revista russa que se chama Журнал мод. Não tenho nenhuma ideia o que significa isso, como o russo não é uma de minhas linguas, mais, se o alfabeto russo é parecido do grego, a letra parecida ao “delta” ao fim da segunda palavra seja (?) uma “d,” então a palavra seja parecida a “moda.” Mais certamente posso estar errada. As revistas têm desenhos muito bens, mais eu sei que ainda não tenho a ablidade para fazer estas coisas. Posso dizer-los (?) quem sim pode, olhem isso:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/02/andamento-do-vestido-de-croche-azul.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/02/andamento-do-vestido-de-croche-azul.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-azul-reta-final.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-azul-reta-final.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-maravilhoso-projeto-concludo.html"&gt;http://agulhasfashion.blogspot.com/2008/03/vestido-maravilhoso-projeto-concludo.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Esta senhora sim tem abilidade.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SV-UDzpn9eI/AAAAAAAAACw/GMk3dWJ3ccI/s1600-h/mod484+3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287107280681563618" style="FLOAT: left;

So I found this post on craftster, pretty randomly, since I had never been to the site before and I decided to see what would happen if I put “pop tabs” in the search engine. &lt;a href="http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=247149.0"&gt;http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=247149.0&lt;/a&gt; This girl is a fantastic artist and designer, and as a high school teacher myself I really admire her for the creativity and individuality she is exhibiting at her age. In five years of teaching, I can only think of one student (who’s actually one of my current students) who would be into something like this. Maybe I should bring it up to her, actually. My kids all think I’m crazy anyway for bumming pop tops and chip bags off them all the time, even though I’ve shown them pictures of what can be done with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, here is the link to the picture of the prom dress cause I think I’m not supposed to post pics of other people (well, who knows, but I feel funny about it): &lt;a href="http://www.craftster.org/pictures/showphoto.php?photo=142297&amp;amp;size=big&amp;amp;cat=&amp;amp;ppuser=100126"&gt;http://www.craftster.org/pictures/showphoto.php?photo=142297&amp;amp;size=big&amp;amp;cat=&amp;amp;ppuser=100126&lt;/a&gt; I wish I had known about this in high school so I could’ve done something like this for my prom. Then again, I go to the prom every year now for my job…hmmm…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt;Entonces, encontré este tema en el sitio “craftster.” Nunca habia ido al sitio y decidí ver que pasaría si pusiera “fichas” en el buscador. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=247149.0"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=247149.0&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Esta chica es una artista y diseñadora fantástica, y como maestra de secundaria yo la admiro para su creatividad y individualidad ella muestra a su edad. En mis cinco años como maestra solamente puedo pensar en una estudiante (que por casualidad es una de mis estudiantes ahora) que tendría interés en algo así. Tal vez debo hablar con ella sobre eso… De todos modos, mis estudiantes piensan que estoy loca porque siempre les estoy pidiendo fichas y bolsas de sabritas, aunque les he mostrado fotos de lo que se puede hacer uno con ellos…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aquí está el link para la foto del vestido de prom porque siento rara poniendo fotos de personas desconocidas aquí (pues, quien sabe, pero de todos modos me siento rara): &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.craftster.org/pictures/showphoto.php?photo=142297&amp;amp;size=big&amp;amp;cat=&amp;amp;ppuser=100126"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.craftster.org/pictures/showphoto.php?photo=142297&amp;amp;size=big&amp;amp;cat=&amp;amp;ppuser=100126&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt; Me gustaria haber sabido de esta cuándo estaba yo en la secundaria, podría haber hecho algo así para mi prom. Aunque voy al prom cada año ahora para mi trabajo…&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Então, encontrei este tema no sitio “craftster.” Nunca tinha ido ao local e decidi ver que aconteceria se eu pusesse (?) “lacres” no pesquisador. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=247149.0"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=247149.0&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; Esta menina é uma artista e disenhadora fantástica, e como professora da secundaria eu lhe (?) admiro para sua criatividade e individualidade que mostra ela a seu idade. No meus cinco anos como professora somente posso pensar em uma estudante (que é estudante minha agora) que teria interesse numa coisa como esta. Talvez vou falar com ela sobre esta. Todos meus estudantes pensam que sou louca porque sempre os peço para seus lacres e suas bolsas de batatas, mesmo que os tenho mostrado fotos disso que pode ser feito com eles…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui esta o link para a foto do vestido de prom porque sinto estranha se ponho as fotos de pessoas desconhecidas aqui (bem, quem sabe, mas ainda sinto estranha): &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.craftster.org/pictures/showphoto.php?photo=142297&amp;amp;size=big&amp;amp;cat=&amp;amp;ppuser=100126"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;http://www.craftster.org/pictures/showphoto.php?photo=142297&amp;amp;size=big&amp;amp;cat=&amp;amp;ppuser=100126&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; Gostaria de ter sabido deste quando eu estava na secundaria, eu poderia ter feito algo como este para meu prom. Embora vou ao prom cada ano agora para meu trabalho…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a sketch I made of a dress that would be cool, inspired by the one above. I’m not good at sketching, so I’m also including a photo of what I want the skirt that extends beyond the pop tops to look like, you know, a real mermaid skirt. &lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;Aquí está un dibujo de un vestido que sera chido, inspirado por lo de arriba. No soy muy buena para dibujar, entonces voy a incluir una foto de como quiero que se mira la falda debajo de las fichas, una verdadera falda de sirena.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I’m too tired to do this one in Portuguese, I’m sorry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SV64aHNeCsI/AAAAAAAAABo/xm28HrYEHOs/s1600-h/nov-dec+08+small.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286865771331193538" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SV64aHNeCsI/AAAAAAAAABo/xm28HrYEHOs/s320/nov-dec+08+small.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SV64hdU6pYI/AAAAAAAAABw/06pGkK8N5A8/s1600-h/mermaid.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286865897527092610" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 339px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 344px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SV64hdU6pYI/AAAAAAAAABw/06pGkK8N5A8/s320/mermaid.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1748785891541085731-5780547137720417071?l=artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com/feeds/5780547137720417071/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com/2009/01/1209.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1748785891541085731/posts/default/5780547137720417071'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1748785891541085731/posts/default/5780547137720417071'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com/2009/01/1209.html' title='Pop Top Prom'/><author><name>jsierra1982</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00244698871582168698</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVu25dewKfI/AAAAAAAAAAw/QBECIwTSyAc/S220/small+avatar.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SV64aHNeCsI/AAAAAAAAABo/xm28HrYEHOs/s72-c/nov-dec+08+small.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1748785891541085731.post-8349451728599500354</id><published>2008-12-30T14:42:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-27T14:18:01.808-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pull tabs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='purse'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pop tabs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='latinha'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lacres'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pop tops'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bolsa'/><title type='text'>My first purse</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="left"&gt;I've spent the last few weeks reading recycled art blogs from Brazil and I finally decided to start my own. This recycled art thing is becoming an obsession, particularly the concept of crocheting with pop tops from soda cans. I learned how to do it in Mexico with my mother-in-law, but it seems to be more popular in Brazil. While I was in Mexico I also came across an interesting purse made out of potato chip bags folded up and woven like the gum wrapper chains my dad showed me how to make when I was a kid. Between those two things, I was hooked. I finally finished my first purse today, so I figured it was time to start my blog. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My other passion in life is languages. I am fluent in English and Spanish and I am learning Portuguese. It seems logical to write my blog in three languages: English, my first language; Spanish, in honor of my mother-in-law who got me started on this stuff; and Portuguese, so I can practice it and also because so many people doing this type of art are from Brazil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;******&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;He pasado las semanas pasadas leyendo varios blogs sobre el tema de arte reciclado de Brasil y por fin decidí empezar lo mio. Esta cosa de arte reciclado está empezando a ser una obseción conmigo, especialmente la idea del tejido con las fichas de latas. Aprendí hacerlo en México con mi suegra, pero me parece que es más popular en Brasil. Cuándo estaba en México también vi una bolsa pero bien interesante hecho de las bolsas de sabritas dobladas y tejidas como las cadenas hecho de los papelitos de los chicles que me enseñó hacer mi pa cuándo era yo niña. Entre estas dos cosas, me hizo adicta. Por fin terminé mi primera bolsa hoy, entonces pienso que ya llegó el tiempo de empezar mi blog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;Mi otra pasión en esta vida es de aprender los idiomas. Hablo inglés y español y estoy estudiando el portugués. Me parece lógico escribir mi blog en tres idiomas: en inglés, mi primer idioma; en español, por mi suegra que fue la primera que me enseñó hacer estas cosas; y en portugués, para praticar el idioma y también porque hay tantas brasileñas haciendo este tipo de arte.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;******&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;*Desculpem, que sou estudante de português, façam favor de perdonar os meus erroes*&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Eu tenho passado as semanas passadas lendo vários blogs sobre o tema de arte reciclado do Brasil e por fim decidi começar o meu. Esta coisa de arte reciclado está começando a ser uma obsessão comigo, especial a ideia do croché com lacres da latinha. Aprendi fazê-lo em Mexico com minha sogra, mais parece-me que é mas popular em Brasil. Quando estava em Mexico também vi uma bolsa interesantíssima feito das bolsas de batatas (como se diz “potato chips????”) dobradas e tecidas como as correntes feito dos papelinhos da goma de mascar que ensinou-me fazer meu pai quando era menina. Entre estas duas coisas, fiz-me viciada. Por fim terminei minha primeira bolsa hoje, então penso que já chegou o tempo de começar o meu blog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Minha outra paixão nesta vida é de aprender as linguas. Falo inglês e espanhol, e estou estudante de português. Parece-me lógico escrivir meu blog nas três linguas: em inglês, minha primeira lingua; em espanhol, pra minha sogra que fue a primeira que me ensinou fazer estas coisas; e em português, pra praticar a lingua e também porque há tão muitas brasileiras que fazem este tipo de arte.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sooo...here is my first pop-top purse (yes, I saw the pattern online, I did not come up with it myself):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqkfhCnlHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/ltKhXN80IjA/s1600-h/nov-dec+08+051+small.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285717974024950898" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqkfhCnlHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/ltKhXN80IjA/s320/nov-dec+08+051+small.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqk0WLIbfI/AAAAAAAAAAc/N35TGNico0g/s1600-h/nov-dec+08+054+small.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqkktKh1NI/AAAAAAAAAAU/TXO5QhdPZr0/s1600-h/nov-dec+08+052+small.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285718063178699986" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqkktKh1NI/AAAAAAAAAAU/TXO5QhdPZr0/s320/nov-dec+08+052+small.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqk0WLIbfI/AAAAAAAAAAc/N35TGNico0g/s1600-h/nov-dec+08+054+small.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285718331885121010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqk0WLIbfI/AAAAAAAAAAc/N35TGNico0g/s320/nov-dec+08+054+small.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqk4mF-zqI/AAAAAAAAAAk/PhawMGgphRQ/s1600-h/nov-dec+08+057+edited.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285718404877962914" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 219px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqk4mF-zqI/AAAAAAAAAAk/PhawMGgphRQ/s320/nov-dec+08+057+edited.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1748785891541085731-8349451728599500354?l=artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com/feeds/8349451728599500354/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com/2008/12/ive-spent-last-few-weeks-reading.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1748785891541085731/posts/default/8349451728599500354'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1748785891541085731/posts/default/8349451728599500354'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artinthreelanguages.blogspot.com/2008/12/ive-spent-last-few-weeks-reading.html' title='My first purse'/><author><name>jsierra1982</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00244698871582168698</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVu25dewKfI/AAAAAAAAAAw/QBECIwTSyAc/S220/small+avatar.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XfxOBQQZoyQ/SVqkfhCnlHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/ltKhXN80IjA/s72-c/nov-dec+08+051+small.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
