It's been a while! I'm almost done with my exams, just one more to go on Friday! I came across this tutorial on how to make a drawstring bag one day. It seemed relatively simple to do and would produce a rather nice-looking result. However, seeing as I don't own a sewing, I tried it …

Easter fabric bunny
It's Easter Day today! What else comes to mind but chocolate eggs, cute bunnies and yellow chicks? I was browsing my Facebook feed when I came across a blog post by Hobbycraft containing a tutorial on how to make a fabric bunny. Since I've been wanting to learn how to make proper plushies, I present …
Felt cupcakes kit
People who know me in real life know that I love cakes, especially cupcakes. (On a related note, I might start uploading my cake designs too, when I get more.) On a trip to Hobbycraft in Solihull, I picked up this "Felt cupcakes and cakes" kit. It supposedly has all the materials you need plus …
Birdie jar decoration
A curious idea, it involves taking a small storage jar and filling it with something that you want to keep as a decoration and not take out. This is because you seal the jar at the end to make it look prettier. Materials provided were a small bird figurine and fake grass. The rest of …

I made my dangler with four hearts. …

One-Star Dragon Ball plushie
Making round ball plushies is fairly easy to do, and you can easily adapt the template to other objects. As my boyfriend is a Dragon Ball nut, I made him a One-Star Dragon Ball! First I cut out a paper template of an eye-shaped oval, and cut out six pieces of this template in orange …
Tourmaline quartz – “Monochrome”
Tourmaline Quartz combines the properties of Tourmaline and Clear Quartz Crystal. Tourmaline purifies ones own energies and protects from negativity, while Quartz amplifies energies focused through it. This combination makes Tourmaline Quartz a powerful shield-stone that, depending on the desired intent of the wearer, can amplify and return negative energy, like a mirror spell, or can convert the negative …
Yet another Valentine’s day
I got back from home just yesterday. For this year, I only made a simple card. It's a small square card with a colourful dotted pattern and an origami heart on the front. I like putting ribbon bows on my cards a lot, it's a little habit of mine, haha. I need to get yet …
