oh, Ciggy!

Today's title is Ciggy!
Yeah, I'm gonna show you how cool am I holding a stick and walking around :D

LOL just kidding, actually it's the other way round.



Cigarettes are like.. SO ADDICTIVE! You just can't leave without it once you know how nice is it. But you and I know, Cigarettes kill (: Kill you and me!

I was so so so bored on Monday during work I couldn't think what to do so I went out and grabbed a stick I thought of 'motivating' myself, not to smoke (:

I planned to make a small 'no smoking' sign.
Here's my kindergarten style simple sketch. HAH



So yeah. First, you have to make a plan no matter how suck you think you could make.

You need :
1. Square plastic
2. Black Sticker
3. Red Sticker



Find a piece of plastic, bigger than your planning size (16cm x 16cm)



After you've found one,
use a pen or something with a ruler and draw out the square (16cm x 16 cm)



Ok done. It's time to use the most dangerous 'chopping' machine ever.



Make sure nothing's on the top of the table before you hit the ON button or else you might get in trouble.



are you ready?



Better be extra careful coz' it could really chop your fingers off.



See the result?

Ok. Done with the base.
Now, Computer work.

You need to use 2 computers and 1 sticker-cutting machine.




Computer no.1





Draw out the ciggy and the red sign. Make it 2 layers.

After that, export to the 2nd computer.



Make the measurement right and send it to the machine.
Put a black sticker in the machine 1st before start cutting.



The result after cutting - A shape of a ciggy is formed on the sticker.



Same goes to the red sticker.



And also, the 'no smoking' word.



You'll get 2 pieces of black sticker and a piece of red sticker.
Oh please get a white sticker ready too.



Fyi, the plastic (16cm x 16cm) is transparent (:



Use a blade, remove the unwanted stickers of red and black.





And then, use the 'TRANSFER TAPE'.



The use of a TRANSFER TAPE is to transfer those stickers to the transparent plastic.
Pictures speak below :











There! You are almost done.



The final step is to put on a white background.
Or if you prefer other colours, go ahead. But nah, white colour is more suitable.



Remember, spray BEHIND the plastic, NOT front.







Leave it under hot sun for atleast 40 minutes.
(I left it over night lol)
Don't touch the sticky painted side lorh ofcoz. But if you want to make sure the whole plastic is full of white paint, you can sneak from under it lol.



The white sticker I mentioned just now is to put paste behind the plastic
(to protect the paint)

Hang it on your wall! The wall that you'll see everytime you wake up and go to bed.



Last but not least, burn all your cigarettes!



If you follow all these steps,
congratulations! you are now a clean person and a non-smoker (:

The End :D
