Sewing creations

Sewing, something I thought I would never do. This is the fruit of my labour. A red jeans handbag (made from a pair of old jeans) and my pen/brush case made out of bamboo and 95% Viscose and 5% Elastane (from an old dress).

2 pieces of jewelery

The first piece out is a bangle/armband I made out of Scrapbooking paper, white hobbypaint and a leftover tapeholder in cardboard (Scotch 3M).
The pink text says "Live Love Laugh".
The green paper is originally from a christmas paper that I found little use for and I loved the color of it. I started off by painting the tapeholder white, all of it, and then I cut out a long strip from the bottom of the paper. I tried to pattern match it so the color and pattern would not suddenly just cut off into something completeley else. Then glue and decorate.

The second piece is a set of earrings. It is fairly simple in a brass/copper tone on sterling silver hooks. I am quite proud of them myself :)
I still do not know if I shall sell them, keep them for myself or give them away.

... Creative blog

Did this just turn into a creative blog? I guess it did!

I always loved to occupy my hands with different crafts; writing and drawing/painting. Later, it became Scrapbooking which I enjoy so much. And now, jewelry and sewing. Sewing I never guessed I would do, it just never appealed to me. But now, in retrospect, maybe I would end up there anyway, since I am a very creative person and enjoy making things with my hands.

I have also gotten so inspired by other peoples blogs, like "craftapple", "happy young wife", "V and co" ect, ect.

I guess I will start posting about my (miss)adventures in the world of crafting.

Because, sometimes, you need a reboot.

Hurtful Greetings!

Had a very fun gym lession on school today. We were going to play some games with ballsports as a theme. It was fun and at the end we were going to play some handball where you had to jump when you recieved the ball or pass it to someone else, otherwise the other team were going to get the ball. It happened to bounce away and I ran all I had not to let the other team get the ball and my team yelled behind me to jump, so I did.

I did not land with a even footing, so my right knee twisted itself to the side and the pain did not let me wait. Our teacher helped me immediately and wrapped my knee so it wouldn't swell so much. The doctor said that it wasnt so serious, I only stretched the ligament in the knee, but I will be on crutches for a week. Happy Weekend =D

Can someone say timeparadox?

My parents say the darnest things

Sometimes, pretty funny things slip out of the mouths of my parents. It's things they mispronounce and ends up quite hilarious.

"Look. Now I've gotten mail from that Noreply again. Why does he keep sending me Emails?"
- Dad

"I'm downloading a new movie. It's called the Esk-apist."
- Mom

"Dad, It's lowerdeck, not loverdeck..."
