Sometimes you just play around with something – and above all something nice comes from.
That seems to have happened here too: she played around with some wire and suddenly she had this ear jewelry.
Cute, isn’t it?

Recycled Magazine Coasters
Well, such a coaster from old magazines is surely heat-proof.
And certainly not difficult to make, you actually only need folded paper strips of equal width.
And if you don’t have enough paper simply make some jewelry ;-))

Pumpkin Photo Holder
Ok, it’s not pumpkin time yet, but you can’t begin too soon to prepare ;-)
Besides it doesn’t have to be a pumpkin photo holder, you can make this without a doubt with a water melon, too ;-))

Needlepoint Lace
I found a great tutorial on how to make needlepoint lace.
It doesn’t seem to be too difficult, but veeery time-consuming.
Nothing for me, I think ;-)

Knitted Lace Vest
Recently I was playing around with lace knitting a lot and I was searching for a simple pattern where I don’t have to de- and increase as well.
I’ve found it ;-))
Looks nice, doesn’t it?

Tubular Peyote Earrings
I find these earrings soo cute!
And they are great to practice the Peyote technique, just as the beads that I combined with my paper beads.
Now at last I can make matching earrings for my paper beads bracelet ;-))

Six Pincushions At Once
Do you need six pincushions at once for some reason (e.g. to sort your pins by colour)?
Then simply reconstruct an egg carton.

Slippers from Old Textiles
I think that I must fish out my sewing machine after all – and sew some slippers from old, kitschy dishcloths ;-)
