👍 [Pro Tips] Collage idea ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ

Someone on the forum once asked, “How do you use the empty Roboitime product boxes?” and back then I replied that I just store leftover building parts and other little things in them. But now I’ve come up with an idea for what to do with the boxes from the figurines! Since they have such a beautiful design, I thought why not cut out the images and use them to make a collage?

This way, the boxes can serve not only as packaging for the figurine but also as a piece of art.

I made my collage on a page in my sketchbook. I wanted to give it a warm, autumn-inspired look with shades of brown and nostalgic feelings. To create it, I used old photos I had printed five years ago but never used, pieces of wrapping paper, stickers, clothing tags, and of course, the cut-out Nanci.

In the photo, it’s me with my longtime friend. We were inseparable back when I lived in Kazakhstan. We haven’t seen each other for six years now, and I miss her a lot. :broken_heart:

And now a question for you!
Do you keep journals or make collages? Did you have this hobby as a child?

These are beautiful :heart: such a lovely way to keep memories and also remember Rolife builds. How I wish I can make journals, I have bought several stickers and washi tapes already but never had the time to start.

Oh yeah! It’s quite a time-consuming activity, but once you start arranging the composition and gluing the elements, time just flies by!

Wish boards sound interesting!!

I totally agree with you. My chaos shows on the walls in the form of paintings, and on the shelves as various figurines, puzzles, and candles. But in all other spaces, I try to keep things minimal and tidy.

Have many of the wishes from your board already come true? @Alpine

so nice

That is a very smart idea and I quite like it. It brings back a lot of childhood memories. I used to do a lot of collage with all different pictures from my excursions when I was still in school. :heart_eyes:

That’s lovely. I used to like making collages and did a bit of scrapbooking many years ago but I don’t make the time to much of that anymore.

These are gorgeous! Very talented!

It was me that asked that about the boxes, i still havent used any but i have kept them for when i will need them one day! :blush:

Im sorry to hear about you and your friend being seperated, that must be really hard. I hope you get to see her again soon!

I havent done much journalling or collages. My hobbies as a child were violin and im not sure what else. I really loved music a lot.

That’s so cool! In my childhood, I used to make collages only from my little sketches that I drew in my school notebooks. I also remember how my dad and I used to glue dried leaves into an album and write down the names of the plants.

If you’d like, you can share your collages here too. I’d be happy to admire them!:smiling_face:

Wow!! Can you show something from your scrapbook? Of course only if you wish :heart_eyes:

That’s so wonderful that you were into music in your childhood!

Actually, I’m connected to it a little too. Of course, I didn’t play the violin like you (it seems like such a challenging and impressive instrument!), but I used to sing a bit. My mom is a vocal teacher and arranger, and when I was little, we used to record covers of children’s songs with my voice. Such warm memories… But now I’m a bit shy to use my voice.
