Watercolour Cards

Glamour and Grace Watercolour Cards

These watercolour cards are first written on with a ‘blender pencil’ and then painted with water colours.
When I was a kid we used to write first with a candle or as in the cute quote with a white crayon and painted this with water colours.
Whatever you use, you can make this way most beautiful and very personal cards :)

Woven Paper Box with Cone Lid

PaperMatrix Woven Paper Box with Cone Lid

Not so long until Christmas anymore, wouldn’t such a woven paper box with cone lid be the right thing? :)

And if you don’t like this shape so much look at the other wonderful woven paper items by papermatrix :)

Swatch Bangle

See Me Knit Swatch Bangle

Another beautiful idea: if you knit something you often knit a swatch first.
You can collect these swatches and in the course of time get enough for a blanket.
But you can also make a swatch bangle, matching your sweater :))
For that purpose you simply sew the swatch around a ready-made bracelet.
If you don’t have aready-made bracelet you can also make the bracelet yourself from a plastic bottle (see the knitted/crocheted bangles) or from paper (see the bracelet from recycled paper) :)

Crochet CD Mandala

These crochet CD mandalas are not a new idea, but I find them nice :)
If you can’t or don’t want to crochet try the beaded stars on CDs.
