Qui a déjà essayé ??? Ce sont des hexagones allongés. POTC = Patchwork of the Crosses = Patchwork de la croix (car le centre représente une croix) Je vais tenter avec des tissus "à bandes décoratives" et quelques tissus assortis pour voir tous les effets...

Here be a fine necklace based on the Pirate of the Caribbean Movie Logo of a skull wearing a bandana infront of cross cutlasses.• Come in two colors: antique brass or antique nickel• adjustable 21 inch metal chain necklace

The best templates for POTC (Lucy Boston Patchwork of the Crosses) are freezer paper templates—better than acrylic. Let me show you why.

"You best start believing in ghost stories Miss Turner. You're in one!" Hey chaps. Been wanting to make Pirates of the Caribbean figs for a really long time and i finally got around to it. There are plenty more in the pipeline cos its probably one of my favourite movie franchises ever. This version of Barbossa is based of Curse of the Black Pearl. I modified a cmf hat to have chunks ripped out and plumage sculpted on the top. It is washed in black. The the Aragorn hair has the top chopped off and it was cut to fit the hat seamlessly. The head is completely painted to get likeness to Geoffrey Rush, and the beard is sculpted. The straps, cuffs, white shirt and orange belt are made from e-tape. The jacket is card, painted grey and washed with black. The rest of the details are painted. There is a pretty intricate design on his brown undercoat but it is hard to see int he photo. I cut the leaf of the apple and painted it light green. Sword is painted silver and washed black. Hope you guys like this grotty fella. I'll make Jack the monkey eventually too. I just lost my monkey piece. Thx for reading :)

So, I indeed managed to find Mermaid's Tears the day after I picked up the first three. It was at Ulta, and I stupidly didn't realize the B2G1 sale was still active on Sunday! Now I'm a little sad that I a) bought the first 3 on Saturday for a premium of $8 and b) that I missed out on getting Skull and Glossbones for *free* on Sunday. Oh well :/ This collection rocks, anyway. I need to get S&G somehow! ANYWAY, here's Sparrow Me the Drama and Mermaid's Tears. If you missed the other three (Steady As she Rose, Stranger Tides, Planks a Lot), I swatched them here. OPI Sparrow Me the Drama - A great midtone pink! Nice formula, but I still used 3 coats here. Comparison: OPI Sparrow Me the Drama and OPI Japanese Rose Garden - At the store, I thought it might be similar to OPI Japanese Rose Garden, but they are not really *that close*. I'm liking both of these shades now; I'm not sure why I was so anti-pink before! OPI Mermaid's Tears - Yay! Finally got this super lovely polish! I love it as much as I thought I would! Lovely formula on this one as well; 3 coats in the picture, but I think 2 coats was enough for real life. I don't have Orly Ancient Jade, which I've seen comparisons (and they are VERY close!), so you'll have to live with what I've got LOL: Comparison: OPI Mermaid's Tears and Essie Turquoise and Caicos - See, the OPI is *much* dustier! I don't even think I want a full size of T&C now... O_O Comparison: OPI Mermaid's Tears, Essie Turquoise and Caicos, Milani Dress Maker and Illamasqua Milf Anyway, I wore MT as a full mani yesterday, and tried CND Jade Sparkle over top before I took it off. Great combo! Hope you guys found these swatches useful! I knew I wanted the whole collection when the promo came out because I *love* dusty/greyed out polishes! :D
