I haven't done anything for a while now. >_< I insisted on making something for my other half today since I didn't have my present ready in time. Flicking through my paper stacks, I found this lovely paper design with a pretty border. So I cut it down to size, keeping one of the corners, …

Bracelet bonanza
I've been so busy lately, I've hardly had any time to do any proper crafting. >_< I decided that one day, I would set aside work so that I could focus on making something. I made today very productive! As is the life of most crafters, I just have so many beads. I have beads …

Twelve creations that represent 2014.
Origami Christmas setup
Hope you all have had a wonderful Christmas holiday so far. Before I left my house for the holidays, I spent a few days working on a small Christmas setup for the living room table. 3D origami is quite flexible and allows you to make lots of different kinds of models. You just have to …

Wire jewellery with Linda Jones
*This post is quite picture-heavy* I have a book called "Making Beautiful Bead & Wire Jewelry" by Linda Jones, which provides step-by-step instructions on how to make about 30 different projects involving rings, necklaces and earrings. This author is quite accomplished and is worth looking up if you are a beginner-to-intermediate jewellery maker; I myself …
Kusudama – “Hanahitai Mitsuya”
Kusudama Hanahitai Mitsu from Tomoko Fuse's book.
Kusudama – “Mitsuya Kiriko”
I bought this book a year ago by Tomoko Fuse (布施 知子) called "Kusudama Origami - Hanakiriko" (くす玉おりがみ - 花切子). I can read what the Japanese says, but I don't know what it means! Fortunately, the book uses diagrams rather than explanations to construct models, hence why I bought it. Some of the models are pretty …
