Mini-Amigurumi unicorn with sparkly match box home!



Wow...I promised a mirco amigirumi uncorn to a friend like a year ago and finally I finished it!
Actually I can't crochet very well and I'm bad with patterns. I used a newborn guinea pig pattern I found here : http://www.ravely.com/people/Luna1130 and simply changed it in the back and made different ears.




















The feet are just little bobbles which makes it way easier. I always find it very difficult to crochet little parts and attach them.
I altered a match box with fabric, buttons, pearls and lots of nail polishand glue. After all this tiny unicorn needs a proper home.
It was really fun to simply mess around with the different materials even though it came out very differnt to what I had planned. The little book was made and bound by my boyfriend and I just glittered it up :D

Another Cherry Stone pillow

Like I wrote in last blogpost, I still had some cherry stones that I wanted to use for a pillow.

This time I wanted a pillow for my neck and shoulders because they are always so tensed from work. I sewed in different sections so that the stones are scattered more evenly.


I also wanted to sew a pillow case since it can easily be washed and I could easily make another cover if I want another color or something.
The back of the cover.
Thanks for looking :)

Cherry Stone Pillow

I totaly forgot to post this pillow I made in January!
Cherry stone pillows are awesome. You heat them up in the microwave and they stay warm and cozy (and smell nice). I searched for one online and they were kinda expensive, so I just bought 1 kg of cherry stones and made one myself.


I still have cherry stones left and plan to make another one :)

Bread

Why always cakes and muffins and cookies when you can have wonderfull bread? Somehow I never dared to make some bread, but it's really not hard at all.

Last month, the first bread I we tried was with bacon (of course), onions and cheese.

It was delicious... so for hour next try two weeks later we got more adventurious and made three differnt breads. Another one with bacon and onion, one sweeter bread with honey and dried figs and one with different kind of nuts.


 Here my personal favourite with dried figs.
Can't wait to make new ones. They are so delicious =)

Rainbow postcards! Mermaid and Unicorn

....of course with glitter ;)

I made these in august as a little present. The saturation is a bit of on the pictures. In reality they looked much more colorfull.

 With colors added.
 I added a layer of some clear acrylic laquer. It seals the colors, makes it more shiney and sturdy aaans waterproof.


Thanks for looking!

Halloween pumpkins

This was the first time I did some actual pumpking carving for halloween since it is no tradition were I live. It was harder work than I had imagined but we also didn't have a proper cutter at hand. So I blame that ;)

Enough talk....here they are!
 My favourite is the one on the right. I love his YARRRRR~ expression ^^
