Crayon Candles

craftster recycled crayon candles

Now that’s getting sooner dark candles become more interesting again – as I find.

I found a tutorial for crayon candles that I think is absolutely great, because it’s ‘only’ making use of leftovers, but I find the results stunning.
But I still need my crayons ;-)

Concerning unikatissima

You may have seen it already, I changed the layout of the blog :)

In the right navigation bar you can still find a lot of informtion about the blog, but hopefully better organized now and made to show and hide (simply click Plus or Minus, resp.).
The most important innovations there are the sections

  • Completely up to date where I can leave important news for you,
  • Recent english comments where you can see the most recent five comments of the english unikatissima blog and a link to all english comments and
  • Recent german comments where you can find the most recent five comments from the german unikatissima blog.
    This may come handy because they give frequently interesting suggestions that you should know about, too ;-))

The left navigation bar is kept unchanged.

And I added a menu bar at the top – that is the preparation on what will come but possibly is already of help to you now ;-)

I wish you continued fun with unikatissima

Again something that you can make from crochet squares – and muuuch more faster than afghans ;-)) – a hat from five crochet squares.

But I never wear hats…

Beaded Wooden Spools

Aunt Mollys Bead Street Beaded Wooden Spools

When I saw the little beaded wooden spools I directly wanted to go for making them myself!
Luckily I didn’t have any wooden spools at home at the moment ;-))

But you can easily ‘weave’ the little Peyote beads from my paper beads bracelet (without any wooden spools ;-)) around the wooden spools.

Fake Rock Keychain

craftbits Fake Rock Keychain

Must be quite heavy, such a rock key chain, mustn’t it?
It mustn’t! ;-))
It is fake stone and made from foam and spraypainted ;-)

I don’t quite understand how it works and why it isn’t dented, but at the moment I can’t make it because I still need my mattress at night ;-))

And by the way it should be possible to make them from paper maché, shouldn’t it?
And wearing it around your neck should look, great, too ;-)

Knitted Video

cast-on Knitted Video

When I saw the knitted video for the first time, I was sitting there with my jaw dropped.
That didn’t look very beautiful (me, not the video! ;-)).
Anyhow: I’m toootally amazed about.
And I won’t never, ever try to knit such a thing by myself ;-))
(I know, I know, it is machine knitted.
Even so ;-))
