crochet I Phone case

Recently I showed beginning of a wok on my IPhone case. Wanted to try a bobble stitch and that was easy with youtube. I like this case have a simple form but interesting texture thanks to that stitch.

furniture redo

Today I want to share with you one inspirational project which is not mine but my mothers. Buffet and chair redo. Actually my mother didn’t plan to show it somewhere in internet so there is no photos “before” or of process. But I have a picture of a wardrobe, which is of the same condition and age just for you to have an idea of how that piece of furniture looked. First the buffet and stool were sanded, than covered with paint and were sanded again to give a little shabby look. The drawings are of my mother’s design and drawn by acrylic paint.

Crochet snowflakes

Hello, friends!
Hope your holidays were great. As for me, I'm back to Russia for a couple of weeks and here we have Christmas on 7th of January, so holidays just ended. And today is the last chance to show my Xmas decor - a little crochet garland. I love crochet snowflakes and dreamed to make them for a long time, the process seemed to be quite appealing.

What I love about crochet process  is "playing" with finished and unfinished  things.  Love to compose them with my other stuff or to put them into patterns (the one you can see in my previous post).

my handmade

At my mother's home I found a perfect place for me to style the things I make. Lots of linen, nice colors, lovely wicker basket. And here is the result.

process

Today I made some photos of my crochet process details.

I'm really in love with natural colors of yarn and shades of pink. Keep them in net bag that I made myself, hooks keep in Mongolian leather case for chopsticks. Also made a little yarn catalog. I think it can be helpful in finding matching colors of new yarn. 

crepe paper flowers

After my Xmas gift wrapping I had some crepe paper left. So yesterday I made DIY crepe paper garland for my party. Thanks to this nice tutorial!

My new year gift wrapping. Late to publish that in March, but I think this crepe paper wrapping is ok for any occasions.
