Childishly fun

When I read Akademikern (Academician) 4/2011 I was delighted with all the funny pictures in it. I felt inspired to cut and paste. So I made some ugly postcards which I might send to blissfully unaware friends.

Then of course I couldn't stop cutting so I went to next magazine. Look below for postcards with a flower-theme.

You are what you love

Look at my new black skirt! :) It has two pockets and heart buttons. It's made out of second hand-material. 

For now I have left my sewing machine in my family home, so I can focus on my social work thesis for the rest of the semester. This means I won't be posting for a while.



Making up for my lack of time (and creativity)

Another hairdo for my sewing blog! Once again made by my dear little sister.

The braid maze

Hey Sister

My sewing blog has been very dull lately by several reasons. To make up for my lack of creativity and time, I will post some photos of my youngest sister's many talents. She knows how to make amazing hairdos!



Back Down Memory Lane

Yesterday I found these little animal-bags in my wardrobe.  When I was younger I liked to knit.


To the left is a bear-bag and to the right is a rabbit-bag. I still like childish things, even though I'm 22. I don't see any reason to be all boring and grown-up since that is what I'm supposed to be anyway, from now on, forever on.

Just my cup of... coffee

I think we all have some old jeans lying in the back of our wardrobe somewhere. At least I did, before I decided to remake two pair of old jeans of mine. This is part one of two in my remaking jeans-theme.

Out of a pair of black jeans I made a pair of shorts (a classic I know!). Below you can see photos of my recycled four-pocket black denim shorts.

I'm very fond of bows, as you might understand by now. That's not the whole story behind the lace bows though. Several years ago I saw a young woman in a pair of shorts with bows on the back pockets. So this is basically an idea I've stolen (guilty, guilty). I'm happy with the result. :)

Now it's study time! Coffee, coffee, coffee.
