December brings us icy temperatures and powdery snow. I'm glad I made myself an x-large scarf.

Felt 'Rubber' Duckie

I have a friend who likes rubber duckies a lot and I tried making one. It didn't completely turned out the way I wanted it, but it's cute.

Elephant

I don't have a lot of patiece, but I wanted to try this anyway. My first paper cut project:
I got the template at Scherenschnitte, it's a wonderful blog!
PS. It's harder than it looks!

New Project

Topo gave me a white dress to upcycle. It's a pretty little thing, but I haven't got any cool ideas yet, so feel free to make sugestions!

Etsy Shop

I have a tiny Etsy shop under the same name, go check it out here.

Pixie Hat

Here is a picture of my latest hat. I really like how it turned out and I got my brother's girlfriend to model! It's a little big on her, but still cute. If there's anybody interested in the pattern, let me know.

Paper Bowl

Lately craft blogs seem to be overflowing with tutorials to make these paper bowls, so I decided to give it a go. It didn't really turn out as planned, but that's probably because I got bored half way through. The only thing I did differently than the tutorials is this, I took another strip, flipped it over in the opposite direction and glued it on top of the last one. I think it makes it look a little neater (only a little).


Organic Wool Dying


Yesterday I found the time to dye my own wool. I had read this great tutorial over at Pea Soup and I just had to try it. I love the fact that it's done with food coloring so it ain't toxic. I was a little short on dye, but I think it looks pretty damn good for a first try. Here are some pictures.
Now all I need to do is felt it and sew a zipper in it. I can't wait to see the result.

Welcome

Hi,

my name is Freia and I live in Belgium. A couple months ago I started knitting and after my first project was finished, I picked up crocheting. I don’t really know how it evolved from there, but now I’m into all kinds of crafts. Mostly I have more inspiration than time, so I’ll try to organise some things here. I’d love to post some tutorials and giveaways too, but for now I’ll just take it easy.

And don’t hesitate to contact me with anything. Suggestions, questions, links to your craft place,… You can reach me at mutsyah(at)gmail(dot)com or just in the comments section.
Enjoy!
