Letter Dice Updates

After months of experimentation, I decided the criteria for the making of the dice.


30 dice in all. On one side of the dice they'll have the Maltese Alphabet and on the other they will have the English Alphabet -  to trigger peoples curiosity when coming across the unusual letters. 


Every dice is unique as they have different techniques, materials and fonts. 


Some images from the work-in-progress:

Table Top Fun - The making

The Table Top Fun Concept has been developing for months. All I needed was the table to upcycle. Having spoken to a family friend she kindly gave me a neglected table she had out on the roof terrace which was vulnerable to different temperatures. I started by dismantling the table to reconstruct the surface.

I started by Sanding down the table legs.

Then I fixed the external frame which will be holding all the components of the table.

Preparing the interactive part of the table where the inserts will be placed. 

 Glueing the pieces together.

The frame which will hold the glass. The glass will protect the table from getting damaged but also making the table practical and easy to clean.

Assembling the table top.
