I do recycled.

I am amazed by the various ways how other artists play around the theme 'recycled'. Internet and Etsy is full of ideas how old things can be transferred in new looks. So I thought - what could I make? 

And once I had worked on a bigger project where a lot of crochet beads had to be made an idea struck me. Because beside the finished necklace there was a pile of left overs yarn which normally I would just throw away. But this pile was so big and I thought - if all the fibers were united I could make a separate necklace from it!
Oh, but maybe I can glue them together! 


And I had so much fun when putting it together! It was really like painting.. There is no copy for this necklace possible. Cause every fiber is with its structure, length and color and all together is an unique splash of colors.


Every fiber is glued to a crochet cotton basic part. All loose ends are hardened a bit with glue. 


And finished with a metal chain. And still available in my shop here.


This is my way of recycling. Using all materials till the very end and not throwing away. :)

my creative space..

I just love to play with colors! Even more when I have bought a new piece of yarn in a color I didn't had before. :D Then my fingers start to tickle in this big urge to Make something from it!
So this time was the basic blue colors turn along with red, yellow and green. The basic quartet. :)


The recipe for this necklace was quite simple. Just take 12 wooden beads:


4 different color yarns:

And start to crochet!
So simple and outcome - admiring fun! :)

where do my creations go?

Where do my creations go?

This is the question which often lingers in my mind
Other sellers will understand me and join in the following question-game:

Does she like it? Or maybe she doesn't like it at all.. Does she wear it a lot? Will she come back?

Uhhh..
Part of the questions are answered when you receive a feedback but not always you receive it and sometimes it can be just one sentence or bare Positive. This of course is also good and much more better then Neutral or Negative. :D
Oh, but it sure feels so ni i i ii i i i ii ice when people say something more.. It gives such a creative boost!
And even more when a photo is sent:

Maria from AdeloCreations bought from me 3 cherry necklaces - the red, yellow and golden cherries. She asked me to make the chains longer for which I asked her to promise that she will send me some photo with her and the necklaces. And she kept her promise! :) 
Thank you Maria again! 
It makes me want to make another berry necklace! :D

Maria herself has a very beautiful shop and I can't wait to have a chance to buy this beautiful cloud necklace:



Hope to have a lot of customers like Maria. :)

arrows.

Which way?


You say straight? 

But maybe on the left?


Hmm..

Sometimes when there are too many arrows it can be quite annoying and is not helping at all in choosing the right way.
But if there is just one? And this one arrow is as a wearable necklace..

..then there should be no problems to find the best way how to look kitschy, unique and trendy.

These two necklaces are result of so many inspiring arrows on Etsy and elsewhere.
Already listed on my shop:
- in soft pastel colors
- in navy blue and bright colors
Both of them are oriented and points not straight on the ground but a bit on the left (navy blue one) and on the right (pastel one).
So choose the one which helps you to answer - Which way?

macarons?!


Awhile ago I played (again) with my crochet hook and noticed that the very simplest crochet pattern if combined in different colors and fun idea can result in a very eye catching necklace. 

I call it macarons because of the twisted shape it has and because of the pastel colors which reminds me of the french cookies - macarons. I have never tasted them but I sure would like to.. :) They look yummy!!


Simple, fun color combination and easy to wear. This is my newest listing - twisted macarons
