Doesn’t this cuff look most beautiful?
I like best that there are as well empty as well ‘well filled’ spaces and that there are many little beads but this big eye-catcher as well.
She also describes how you can make it yourself – great, isn’t it?

I find this Mehndi tapestry so beautiful – and somehow it seems so easy to make the way she describes it ;-))

I really like the colourful safety pins bracelet!
I find it more interesting with the safety pins than the paper bead bracelet where the paper beads are hold together from elastic alone.
Making paper beads really is simple, especially if you use a (self-made) paper beads roller.
You can even give the paper beads a slightly different form if you like to or make the beads from fabric.
However, it’ll be an interesting and beautiful item ;-)
A propos: If the style of the bracelet seems familiar look here ;-)

I busied myself with ‘needle weaving’ before, it was about a necklace and I’ve said that it would be suitable for little purses.
And – ta-da – I’m finding a tutorial on how to weave a purse with it.
Well, I’m ahead of the times ;-)))

I wrote a couple of entries already that should help to prettify a garden (although I don’t have any ;-)) (see links below).
And I have several entries for making stuff from plastic bags, mostly bags.
So I like the idea of taking yarn from plastic bags and making plastic bag garden decorations quasi twice as much ;-))

The automatic translation isn’t very convincing but I think that it doesn’t matter: simply crochet items from plastic yarn, connect them and hang them in the garden as wind chimes.

There, aren’t the little ones real personalities? ;-)
Well, perhaps I will put some of these little ones on my balcony.
If I haven’t anything better to do with my socks ;-))

I find these sewn potholders soo beautiful!
I even tried it once but it didn’t work: I wanted to sew on spirals, but the stitching made the fabric pucker up completely although I made the stitch length as long as possible.
Probably the needle thread tension was too high or the like, I have to try it once more.
Somewhen ;-))

Concerning the topic string art I presented already the Starburst card and Ganutell, but I’d never thought of pinning it to the wall!
Great idea!

To tell the truth: I only like woods if they are green
Brown is boring!
At least that’s what I thought until I saw this picture ;-)
You live and learn ;-))

When I saw these place mats I was compleeetly thrilled: that’s exactly what I love so much!
She seems to use as well fabric as paper – many of these self coloured.
And I do love to work with paper, e.g. at my paper shopping bag or my paper Crazy Quilt ;-)
