Miniature Marble Stamps

craftster Miniature Marble Stamps

The people have soo great ideas: the miniature marble stamps are nothing else than transparent glass pebbles, flat on one side where she glued on some cut craft foam: fast and effective.
And beautiful ;-)

You can easily glue on little filled and empty squares and then stamp patterns from crochet or cross stitch embroidery charts ;-)

And if you don’t like to stamp then you can make a beautiful ring from your glass pebble ;-)

Crocheted Easter Egg

craftster Crocheted Easter Egg

Ok, the title only tells half of it: it’s not only about simple crocheted Easter eggs, it’s about crocheted Wedgwood- and Fabergé Easter eggs!
(She added a tutorial on how to crochet the eggs to the Wedgwood Easter eggs).
Compare them to ‘real’ Wedgwood and the ‘real’ Fabergé Easter eggs: it’s special, isn’t it?

Happy Easter crochet ;-)

Clear Plastic Fork Ring

craftster Clear Plastic Fork Ring

After you have transformed all your spoons to spoon pendants you want perhaps to work on your forks now?
Because what she’s doing here with the plastic forks must surely work with ‘real’ forks, too?! (Although not with a heat gun, I suppose ;-))

Round Crocheted Cardigan

junghanswolle Round Crocheted Cardigan

I wrote an entry about round knitted/crocheted cardigans already, now somebody has send me (thanks, Monika!) a link to a very nice round crocheted cardigan.
New link to different but also round crocheted instruction: Modell 124/9, Rundgehäkelte Jacke.
Grumble! Although I find the patterns of Junghanswolle beautiful they become obsolete too fast for my taste.
That’s why I give now in the links of entry a list, one or two round crocheted cardigans will hopefully stay available ;-)
What I find makes it special is the fact that it includes a graphic which shows where to put the arm holes and the size of them – this way it makes it possible that I design my own round knitted/crocheted cardigans.
Whether I will be able to finish it is just another question ;-))
