Mollie & Wuppie!

Well, I finished the 2nd kitty.. So now they can play together!

They make me smile, the little rascals!

Pattern available here!

"I’m cute, and I’m gonna get ya!"

That's what somebody said when she saw my first finished kitty:

I'm making two of these, one lighter pink and one darker pink. And I named them after the cats of my boyfriend (R.I.P) Mollie and Wuppie.. And this is Mollie..

Hope her sis will be just as sweet!

I'm having a Give Away!

It's time to celebrate! Why?

1) I moved my blog to blogger successfully!

2) I entered a swap and my offer got claimed (not the 1st, but the 2nd!)

3) I like to celebrate even the smallest things that make me happy!

Got my Swap On!

I've already posted about my first swap offer, but I didn't post a picture of what I've got in return!!

It's lovely! I'm so excited! It's two chocolatebrown-colored feathers and a whole bunch of beads (wooden, glass and pearly-something) and I love it!!!

Can't wait to make something out of it, but I'm not sure what I'll make yet! But I'm so excited!!!!! ^_^

I'm a little nutty!

My first swap package unfortunately did not get a claim, so I had to come up with another offer..

So I made this "Im a little nutty-project bag"!

And it got claimed! Hooray!

You can make one yourself if you like to crochet, find the pattern here!

June Yarn Bomb - Rainbow Bench~!

"How totally AWESOME!!" is what I thought when I saw this Rainbow Bench from Knitourious M.E.G.:

So Fluffy I'm gonna die!!

When I posted the pictures of the baby kitty on my other blog, I felt like Agnes from "Despicable Me":

So fluffy I'm gonna die!!!

There's another bunny!

Long time since I made one of these, but there's another bunny! It's alive and kicking (well, not literally) I've rekindled my love for sewing these lovelies together! Not sure what makes me love them though..

My first crocheted vest!

Last week I finished my first crocheted vest, and I'm thrilled with it! Here are some pics:

Oversized beanie or a slouchy hat?

Is it an oversized beanie or a slouchy hat? Anyway.. yesterday I finished my first one and I have to say..  I'm kind of proud! I never imagined myself crocheting a hat, and even one that would fit my head! All it took was some yarn, a hook, some creativity & some curse words and voila!

More Painting!

Last time I posted my half-finished "Rekindled Shirt", where I painted some text on with special tulip paint.

Stitch Markers!

Been crocheting for a while now and used to work with little hairpins as stitch markers. But I've got 2 self-made markers now:

1) flowery stitch marker - pattern here!

Legendary Amigurumi Movie!

Rilakkuma of Amigurumi! Wow! What work it must have been to make this short movie!

I found this movie on the blog of Vintage Nettles.. Really cool!!

Holiday Ankle Bracelet!

Two weeks ago I went for a short sunny holiday (big smile!) and decided I wanted to have an ankle bracelet. I've always loved ankle bracelets and feel they're a part of summer as well as holidays!

Since I was so excited being able to improvise my crocheted necklace, I thought - let's try a simple ankle bracelet as well.. I had a cute wooden heartshaped button and took some off-white colored yarn and voila!

My first swap package

For the first time I dared to enter a swap! I hope somebody will claim my offer, this is what it looks like!

50 x pink shiny beads
15 x green (jade?) glass beads
8 x flat green (jade?) glass beads
2 x (different) keychains from Turkey containing a total of 55 beads

Old Jeans + Wooden Box = Upcycle project!

Upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality or a higher environmental value.

I wasn't aware of this new term (which obviously isn't so new anymore, but to me it is) but I think my latest project falls under this category of "upcycling". This is what I've done!

1) I took my wooden "memory-box" (where I keep all sorts of memory-thingies, obviously (: )
