holiday

I'm off on holiday!!

all done!

Today I baked some fruit cookies, put them in little boxes and added the fabric fortune cookies on top. Et voilà! I'm really satisfied with the result.

fortune cookies

Sadly I was so busy last weeks I didn't do much crafting. The only thing I made are these fabric fortune cookies, using this tutorial. They're little presents to go with some handmade cookies!

fairytales and polka dots

A while ago I found these fairytale ribbons at a shop in my hometown: De sprookjeskamer. If you like polka dots, mushrooms and fairytales, you should definitely take a look! They have the cutest things. I think I need to plan a visit again...

Who doesn't want a tiny Mushroom sweets set?

matryoshka

This post of Tizzalicious reminded me of my own recently found matryoshka patches. I bumped into them by accident on a local market. What a nice surprise!

mixtape

So little time, so much to do! My to-do list is getting bigger and bigger and I just wish days had 48 hours instead of 24. Unfortunately I haven't done any crafting lately, so I thought I'd share one of my favourite zines: Mixtape. It's an Australian zine about "making time for the small things". I really hope they stick around for a while! Read some samples over here.

yay for space

I'm so happy with all this new storage space, there's even some left! (...but for how long?) Mind you, it was horrible putting it all together, so hopefully I don't need another one in the near future :)On top I put this adorable card by Blanca Gomez, the mushroom spool you see on almost every blog and a little dented ceramic cup.

cotton time

How nice to curl up on the couch with a cup of hot chocolate and this magazine. It is full of great craft projects and makes me want to sew immediately. I wish I could only read Japanese!

mushrooms!

Finally I had the courage to cut this lovely mushroom fabric and made a quick passport cover out of it.

criss cross

Last weekend I made these criss cross coasters using this tutorial. It was super easy! In fact, I think I'll make some more. They would make a great gift too.
