As a creative person my obsessions are many and varied.

The mess on my desk
What’s on my desk is the crafter’s version of YouTube’s “what’s in my bag” I guess. And all I can say is: my desk is always messy, except maybe when I’m on vacation which hasn’t happened this year of course. But for the curious, who wants to know… here’s a photo of the state of […]
Hang Something on the wall
I don’t even remember when or where I bought most of the frames I have in my house, but I know that this pink oval one is a thrifted find. It is made from polystyrene according to the yellowed back-paper… I love this type of frames, but most of them are black. To find a […]

One of my all-time-favorite things to do at home or elsewhere, is filling notebooks. If you are looking for something to do, together with your kids or on your own, may I suggest this; grab a journal / notebook / random stack of folded papers / old unused calendar / old text book to alter […]
Becoming a Barbie Doll Collector

Pink and orange wrist warmers
Properly practiced, knitting soothes the troubled spirit, and it doesn’t hurt the untroubled spirit either.

My hands often gets really cold, and even with a thick sweater it’s the fingertips (and nose) that gets cold in the winter. That […]
Collecting Snow Globes
I have a very small collection of Snow globes in my Christmas box, that we take down each year in December (although not last year because the living room was a mess after moving here. I think that Snow globes are such a darling cute thing, and I’ve always liked them. I don’t think I […]

Quilting | Sewing a Polka Dot Table Runner
Quilting – the act of cutting perfectly good fabric into little pieces and then sewing them back together again. iHanna Quilters are people who enjoy cutting new fabric apart to sew it together again.

My New Polka Dot Art Table (video)
I like a lot of different styles when it comes to interior decorating, and I always admire those that has all-white rooms in their houses. But as an artist, I could never pull that style of, no matter how much I try. At least I don’t think so… Maybe if I had a living room […]
