Phone cozies in the shop

It been a while since I updated my shop with something new...
And with the whole new owl obsession thing, I kind of made a few extra owl cozies. I only have one phone, so I though I put the rest up for sale (hoping I`m not the only owl freak :P)



You can see more pictures of this green fellow here:



And the red one here ,


which was also chosen as "Product of the day" on the Breslo blog.
Thank you so much for the lovely article missBabalacilu!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Work in progress

I am pretty busy nowadays with learning for exams and finishing up projects for school, so I have been neglecting my crafts ... but here are some brooches in the making:


They are quite "slow", but hopefully, they will show up in the store soon enough:


Until then, why not check out what I still have left? Click here!
Back to learning for me! Bye,

New Buttons

I received some new buttons. Yay! I ordered them from this Breslo shop and they are the cutest! Check them out:



Can`t wait to use them in my crafts!

Miniature Pincushions

One of these days I found a lovely tutorial here on how to make pincushions. Also I need to mention that these cushions use recycled materials, the base is a soda-bottle cap wrapped with felt. The instructions are very easy to follow and there are also pictures to help you through. And plus they are so adorable! So of course I had to make my own:




After I finished the first one, - which took about 15 minutes, I made another one:



Why not try one out for yourself? If you do be sure to leave a link with your picture! I would love to see your version!

Happy sewing,
Enci

Handmade Gifts - Last Part

This will be the last part of my handmade gift series blog posts. Today I`ll show you some phone cozies I made from felt. This little guy here will probably look familiar from the sneak peak I showed you earlier:


I don`t know if it`s just me, but just love how these owl cozies turned out. So of course I had to make one for me too! The brown one is mine, the purple one was a gift to my friend:


And on the back they even have a little tail:


Of course I had to consider the fact that not everyone is an owl-lover and so I made my brother a different kind of phone cozy (if you can`t tell, he`s a camera-lover) :



You can check out his photos by clicking here, which were not made with the above camera of course :P
Hope you enjoyed the series!

Best wishes,

Happy New Year!

Thank you for those of you out there who read these lines! Let me wish you all a Happy New Year and leave you with a little quote:

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
Don't be trapped by dogma
- which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Don't let the noise of others opinions
drown out your own inner voice.
And most important,
have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
They somehow already know what you truly want to become.

Everything else is secondary..."

Confession

I have a newly found obsession with owls, I just love them!

Handmade Gifts - Part 3

I case you were curious about my other handmade Christmas gifts this year, I also made two more holiday wreaths somewhat like what I made myself, only these were smaller and instead of a flower they each had a little angel on them as centerpiece:


Here they are:


The first one I made using decorative strings:


While the second one`s technique was similar to the original wreath I made, using thread and decorations from felt:


and even if you can`t believe it, I`m still not done showing you all of the gifts yet!

Catch you later,
Enci
