  Here we are in Bangkok, again, being the successful bling bling match-maker  This time we got Chevrolet and Swarovski together, and our Chevrolet Captiva has been definitely one of the most photographed car in the show so far. I bet that’s because they can feel much LOVE poured into making this! Using over 150,000 CRYSTALLIZED TM - Swarovski Elements, every crystal has been applied one-by-one by our skilled craftsman. Over 300 hours have been spent in creating this masterpiece, decorating almost every outer chrom parts with diamond-like “Crystal” colour whilst adding some glamorous accent on the gold Chevrolet logo with “Light Colorado Topaz” CRYSTALLIZED TM - Swarovski Elements. Interior of the vehicle, on the other hand, has been mostly crystallized with Black Diamond, which sparkles with subtle elegance.  The vehicle is an ultimate model-car, which presents all the possibilities of how one can upgrade their vehicles with CRYSTALLIZED TM - Swarovski Elements with ease. It was not at all my intention to create something which can only become a show-car with ridiculous prices. This Chevrolet Captiva presents a collection of all the available, REALISTIC options one can choose in personalising their vehicles, and yes, it is affordable, too! If you like colours, choose one (or more!) from over 60 different stunning colours from Swarovski - or construct some patterns or add motives. Personalise it with your own initials or names.  The complete customisation including crystals on the custom wheels is priced at 1 million Baht (approx. 21,000 Euro). We already have orders to crystallise the number plate frames, logos and emblems. Let’s see, how fast the bling epidemic would spread across them!Sparkly yours,M.O.A.B. 

We are known to be the first crazy company who dared to bling the whole Xbox360 console with CRYSTALLIZED  (TM)- Swarovski Elements. The first one was commissioned by EIDOS, the company who developped the Tomb Raider games. It was crystallised mostly with SS5 (1.8mm) crystals and took weeks to complete - this is how I got a “tennis elbow” by working on it!  Then there came an additional order by Microsoft in the UK to produce several Xbox360 consoles with the Perfect Dark Zero design, one of which was given as the wedding gift of Ashley Cole and Cheryl Cole!

Doing such complex designs are fun. But sometimes I like working on something simpler, but stronger designs, like the UNION JACK!

Union Jack is powerful… love the strong colour combination of blue, red and white. We use Capri Blue for blue normally, but Cobalt can also create fascinating result. Light Siam is definitely the best colour for red.

Rather than posting a photo of the console, here is the rotating video of this most fabulous gaming console in the world! Enjoy…

Before showing off with some fabulous photos of this new Pentax K-m digital SLR camera, let me explain how amazing this camera is! According to Pentax, this camera is specially designed for entry level digital SLR photographers. It is a simplified, user-friendly camera with compact and lightweight body.

With our bling, this camera has reached the next level - while it takes you into the world of professional photography, it will certainly convert you into another BLING VICTIM! 

… I have a confession though: I had no idea what SLR meant! It stands for”single-lens reflex”, and “it uses an automatic moving mirror system which permits the photographer to see exactly what willbe captured by the film or digital imaging system, as opposed to non-SLR cameras where the view through the viewfinder could be significantly different from what was captured on film”.

HUH? Let me simplify that for you. Basically these cameras take much better photos than our small compact digital cameras, AND it has more area to be blinged!  The latter is definitely the most important point - the more bling, the more sparkly the world would become!

So ladies and gentlemen…. let us present you the new Pentax -m digital SLR camera with the BMT ornament design!

Ahhhhhhhhh! Look at that! A lot of effort went into creating this masterpiece… over 30 hours of hard work and thousands of crystals to fill the surface. The pattern is of course hand-painted prior to applying crystals. The colours we have used are: jet, light siam and crystal. Personally I would have used White Opal…

The camera is not the only thing which is blinged. The belt is also blinged with the elegant swirl pattern with Jet Hermatite, one of the most exclusive coated crystals available from Swarovski. It is metallic black so it has a very subtle, shimmering effect.

We are proud of this camera, and yes, really, we are looking forwaring to blinging more.

So now you know that manifying glasses are also in the list of things we have blinged so far. We have worked with Schweizer Optik (www.schweizer-optik.de), the leading manufacturer of optical devices.  Their successful line of magnifying glasses, the Ergo-Line, is now available as the Ergo-Line Exclusive, encrusted with Crystallized TM - Swarosvki Elements. Only 10,000 pieces are available!

Well, now that the Pope got hold of one, there are only 9,999 pieces available to us all! This marvelous piece has been given to the Pope Benedict XVI in Mainz, Germany, while he was greeting a group of visually impaired who was on their way to Rome.

What a holy piece of news! We heard about it today from them, and it really made us so happy that it has been finally given to him. Now we wish we knew who blinged those holy magnifying glasses

Sonoro is a leading radio manufacturer from Germany, who are known for their elegant & stylish products. They have just revealed the most glamorous radio at the IFA in Berlin: elements Stardust, encrusted by over 3900 CRYSTALLIZED^TM – Swarovski Elements.

Bling My Thing is proud to assist the creation of this series of beautiful radios. On every piece, the white floral element is hand-painted first, then the surface is filled by crystals, each of which is applied by hand.

Personally, I love the effect created by the combination of Crystal and Crystal Cosmojet. Although the whole body is embellished with crystals, it is “not too much” as some people say. The design is subtle, which goes well with the basic concept of the radio. It is simply hypnotising.

Who even thinks of blinging a fitness equipment with Swarovski crystals? Vibrogym did.

Vibrogym is the pioneer of vertical vibration equipments, which generate vibrations that are transferred throughout your body - it is widely used from muscle training to rehabilitation. It’s been recognised by fitness professionals around the world for its innovative functions.

But Vibrogym did not stop right there. Why can’t fitness equipments look glamorous  & sexy at the same time?

So they comissioned us to create a series of crystallised Vibrogym equipments to impress the world. This is probably the most incredible fitness  equipment there is for sure.  Over 65,000 crystals have been applied by hand in the Bling My Thing atelier in Berlin, Germany. It was a very demanding work but at the end, it was all worth it.
