Photo Album New York City

I can't believe I actually finished my New York City photo album! I've been working on this one for over a year now but never really brought it to an end (the trip was in 2009 btw.). But now I did it - finally!
That's how it turned out:



I hope you all had a good start this week! In case I won't get back on here before Christmas: I wish all of you Peaceful Holidays and a Happy New Year!

Tea Bag Inspired Gift Wrapping

I was looking for a creative way to wrap the handwarmer I made for Kristin. Somehow the idea of making an oversized tea bag came to my mind:

Self-Made Hand Warmer

This is another project inspired by a certain pin I found over at pinterest:




I also sewed a little cushion filled with rice. Furthermore I hooked a tine cozy for it. And that's how it turned out:


I gave that little hand warmer to Kristin for her birthday.

Embroidered Gift Wrap

I got inspired for this one over at pinterest. There were a couple of people pinning pictures of embroidered gift wrap, what a great idea!

Fall-inspired Card

This is the Fall-inspired birthday card I made for Kristin this year. For the leafs I used a Tim Holtz stencil and my Sizzix Big Shot machine.

Egg Cozies

Hello everyone!

Sorry for being MIA again, I was on vacation for a little while, a 14-days cruise with AIDA - pics to come soon :) First some updates on what I hooked lately...

Just in time for her birthday I decided to crochet a new set of egg cozies for Kristin. This is how they turned out:


The wool is Woll Butt Versailles in orange and vanilla. It's a 100% acrylic yarn, soft and nice to crochet with.
