I find the idea for this card nice, you can simply download it, print it, cut and fold it and you’re ready to send it to somone beloved.

Oglala Butterfly Necklace
Actually ruffles are not what I really like, but I find these ‘ruffle necklaces’ somehow fascinating.
I found in internet many pictures of other, equally beautiful necklaces and bracelets.
Later I found another tutorial for these and other ruffles which I used for my beaded bottle.

The tutorial is rather old and I could only find it in web archive: Oglala Butterfly

Candy Sushi
I rolled several sushi rolls already, but I’ve never made a Candy Sushi before.
If I should give it a try?
Or better one of the other sweet food stuff?

Orenburg Style Shawl
Isn’t the Orenburg style shawl most beautiful?
I’d neeever finish it but, who knows, perhaps one day…
And I’ve made the stitch markers already ;-)
With these Orenburg style shawls I find the knitting of the broad edge fascinating: you don’t have to cast-on stitches, everything is knitted in one piece right from the start.
Good, isn’t it? ;-)

Crocheted Stitch Markers
Crocheted Stitch Markers
I wanted to present these little, ingenious crocheted stitch markers.
I crocheted mine in less than five minutes!
She offers instructions for small, medium and large ones at ravelry.
Generally speaking it’s ‘only’ a chain ring base crocheted with single crochets – very simple as all ingenious ideas are :)
I did it a little differently:
– I wrapped a needle 3x too big a couple of times with the crochet thread and
– crocheted single crochets around this tread ring.
That’s because I don’t like rings of chains ;-)
Her stitch markers are more beautiful, but mine are sufficient for me ;-)
And I don’t have to fall back to my usual stitch markers ;-)

Wineglass Tea Light Holder
Don’t these wineglass tea light holders look nice?
Once I’ve seen an instruction for them (that’s only available now via web archive), which was meant for Christmas with little Christmas ornaments put in the glasses.
I can’t throw away anything and so I thought that it’d look nice to fill the glasses…
… with hand-dyed paper scraps or…
… with yarn and thread scraps that I kept for reasons I can’t understand anymore ;-)
I can imagine as well to put flowers into the glasses, or carved vegetables or the apple swan or the little hors d’oeuvres penguin ;-)
Note: Be careful to fix the tea lights or even candles so that they can’t slip or topple over!

Polymer Clay Striped Leaf
I do love these colour gradients when working with polymer clay and I found the colour gradients of this leaf very interesting!

Sewn Circular Vest
I find these round-worked cardigans great, up until now I presented two crocheted round cardigans (see links below), now I found a sewn version which shows as well how to make it fit.
This looks as if it was very easy, too ;-)

Chopstick Notebook
Isn’t this a nice book?
And it doesn’t seem to be very hard to make the chopstick binding ;-)

Gift Wrap from Kraft Paper with Rubbing
Do you need a gift wrap in a short time, which should be individual nevertheless?
The instruction shows how to do it.
I like the wrappings very much ;-)
