Come Say Hello!


On Sunday I will have a table set up with my crafts.

Come say hello and see my cute owls! <3

The Owl Bag

This was supposed to be a sleeping bag for a baby, but I don't have any babies in my life, so I made it into a purse.  I lined the inside with fabric and made a strap.  It turned out really nice!






The Elephant Parade


Yksi pieni elefantti marssi näin
aurinkoista tietä eteenpäin
Koska matka oli hauska niin
pyysi hän mukaan yhden toverin

The Smurf House



This is a combination of plastic canvas and crochet.  I donated this to Avoin Paja Inspis for the Käsityöfestäri.  I really must make another and get some Smurf figurines and take some photos of it outside in the forest! :)

Addicted To Yarn


We all have our guilty pleasures... mine is buying yarn.  I have yarn stashed all over the house.  I buy it when I have extra money.  I buy it when it's on sale.  I buy it when I need a pick-me-up.  Yarn makes me happy!  This is a picture of an a haul where I got 30% off the total and saved 40€!  

Video Game Crochet




My husband is into video games.  He and his friends have been collecting retro video games for a long time and recently had the chance to display some of their collection at The Vapriikki Museum in Tampere.  Over the years I have crocheted various characters. :)
