Monkey ballerina

Finally she's finished, the skirt was a handful though, but nonetheless I am actually pleased with how she turned out...

Some jewelry - first try

So, I got some stuff in sale, -70%, who can resist that?! And decided to give jewelry a try, here's the result...

Raoul's soother cuddle

Raoul kept on stealing Laura's soothers, I guessed it was because hers have a cuddle on them, so I decided to make him one for himself. A granny square, the first I ever made as a matter of fact and a panda head attached to it. I needed it quickly and didn't feel like looking for a pattern, so tried something out of the blue. Not really what I had in mind, but the wee monkey is happy with it. And that's what matters, toddlers aren't always as easy to please as one would wish...

Babies are all our dreams rolled into one

Soufyan's pencilcase and good luck puppy

Soufyan is going on his first camp; 10 days of French course. Exciting, terrifying and all other contraries at the same time. Anyhow, he needed a pencilcase and I needed him to have a souvenir. So I made him a personal pencilcase, used a cheap ass plain one and spray painted it, Soufyan liked the idea, so he did so too for a second go, I attached his name with felt letters and textile glue (underestimated that part since the glue went all over the place, will need some practice in that).
The souvenir is an amigurumi love dog, I used cupboard fragrance for the stuffing. Since scent is a wonderful thing and it gives him an excuse on why he has a cuddle on him; I told him to say to any possible roomie that he was worried that the sheets would smell and that that's the reason why he has it ;)

this must be my lucky day

Today I discovered something brilliant, absolutely brilliant; Fimo also exists in glow-in-the-dark!!! How amazing is that'?

So, of course I bought myself some of that and can't wait to get started and see the result :D
Life can be beautiful.
