Kawaii Hearts | Making some Clay Jewelery
Kawaii Hearts with wings are coming into the air and flying straight for you! Who can resist these cuties? I ♥ them so. To continue with the heart theme, I wanted to share an easy and fun idea for making your own lovely jewelry using clay. I made these a while back, but it’s still […]
Quick Craft: Glue A Thing Ring
I love a quick fix of creativity every now and then. This is a ring I put together in five minutes and love soooo much. To make it you’ll need one of those empty rings (found in craft stores) with an empty circular disc that you can glue things onto. And then something cute or […]
Paper coiled ring and other pretty things
Awesome ring by Robyn Wells. Robyn sent me this beautiful ring a while back, and because of server problems etc. I haven’t blogged it yet, but now it’s time. It’s custom made for me and I absolutely love it! It’s made out of coiled pink papers encausted inside a silver coloured ring! I just love […]
How to make Fabric Beads – Easy Craft
You make fabric beads the same way you make rolled paper beads, but I prefer fabric. I haven’t had any success when I tried making paper beads (yet). It’s easier to roll the fabric, and the beads get chunkier faster. Here is a quick tutorial to show you how easy and fun this is! 1. […]
Make something using buttons
Remember there’s no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end. / Scott Adams No comments needed I think. You can see how these button bracelets have been made (using elastic rubber band) and how easy this craft project is. You should give it a try, […]

Glitter necklaces from fused glass
I realize now I should have tried to take photos of my fused glass pieces in a better light before building up the suspense yesterday, but here they are anyway, fused and glory; My glass! What do you think? Not as good as I imagined but not at all as bad as I feared either! […]
Recycled paper beads in a Necklace
I have made paper beads with a recycled newspaper and some glue mixed in. This is a easy fun project that you can do without any preparation. Just put some stripes of newspaper in a pot of water and wait until the newspaper starts to dissolve. Then mix in the glue and start rolling beads! […]
When beads gets another meaning
I was never a jewelry kind of girl (before), so that is perhaps why I’ve never sat down to create that kind of stuff to wear. It was just not interesting to me, because I didn’t need any of that. Earrings makes my ears itch and I’m not good at matching a necklace with what […]
A couple of fabric bracelets
I’ve made a couple of bracelets using Mollychickens Bracelet tutorial: Straight from the iHanna factory: I set up a little studio on my balcony where my cat and I spend a lot of time when the sun is out. I bought a “horse quilt” (that is what I call it because it is so heavy) […]
Ouch, it’s a Totoro invasion
Hope you had a great holiday! Totoro is one of my favorite animated characters ever. He is a forest spirit with a great yawn – and he is the lead character in the anime movie Tonari no Totoro directed by Hayao Miyazaki. If you haven’t seen the movie, you should. It’s totally cute as I […]
