My favourite kind of fabric…

January 18, 2012


Hey lovelies, how are you? :) Do you recognize this fabric? It’s from IKEA (no, I’m not getting paid for promoting their fabric :D) and I LOVE it! It’s so extremely beautiful (and inexpensive :)) and I cannot get enough of it.
Here are a few items I’ve sewn using this pretty fabric: A heart-shaped pillow for my bed, my new shopping bag, an embroidery hoop for my sewing supplies, a new make-up bag I just sewed a few days ago, a hot-water bottle cover for a friend of mine and a cute pouch. What is more, I also made a cherry stone pillow for my mother, some lavender bags as Christmas gifts, a look scarf and a few other things for my friends. I love this pattern and the colors so much!
Do you have a crush on a certain type of fabric? :)
Wish you a lovely evening! <3

New gamer items.

January 17, 2012


Wohoo, thinking of the awesome super gamepad pillow I made last summer, I’ve just handprinted and sewn those two new items for my shop. A pencil case for men (and for ladies, too ;)) who don’t want to forget their beloved childhood gaming memories and a tote bag with another toy which most us know from the days when we were younger… :)

Pink Winter Coat

January 15, 2012

Coat: asos
Treggings: H&M
Boots: bianco footwear
Hat, cuffs & scarf: H&M
Moustache ring: Christmas present from Hanna
Triangle ring: asos
Hello, happy Sunday! It’s been a while since my last outfit post, but I wanted to share what I was wearing today! :)
I recently bought this awesome coat, I love the color so much (my friends say when I’m wearing it, I look like a tartlet or like candy :P), it’s so bright and it’s perfect for the dark and grey season!
Today Flo took these photos while we were out for a walk with Mogli, the weather was awesome.
I hope you were all having a lovely weekend! :)

24 things before 25.

January 13, 2012





Hello! :) This is the list I made shortly after my birthday last year. Inspired by another blogger’s idea to make a list of goals for the next year of one’s life (instead of creating a list of good intentions for the new year on January 1), I wrote down those goals for the 25th year in my life. :)
Because I’m going to turn 25 in the beginning of February, I wanted to share this list again to show you which goals I achieved. :)
As you can see, I nearly did everything I wanted to do, there are only a few things missing. :)

1. Unfortunalety, I failed one course at university last summer semester, so I’ll have to do it again. ;P
2. Woohoo, I sold much more than 100 items in my DaWanda shop!! :) Until now, a total of 267 items have been sold and there are still about 3 weeks left until my birthday, so this was a total success. :)
3. Yes, I visited Hanna!! :) Cause she has been living in Berlin for almost one year, this was pretty easy and we spent lots of precious time together.
4. I’ve been visiting Malin, too. ;) I went to see her two times this year, one time with Hanna and one time with Flo. :)
5. Wohooo, I got a DSLR for my last birthday, my mom bought it for me. <3
6. I’ve got even more than 300 blog followers, they are nearly 400. :) Thank you soooo much for reading my blog!!
7. Yes, I’ve sewn a skirt. Much better, I ‘ve even sewn two of them. :)
8. No, I didn’t sell my items at the Mauerpark, but hopefully I’ll do this next summer. :)
9. Yeeeeees, this was one of the best things last year, we found the perfect flat for us!! :)
10. Ohh, I threw a theme party, it was perfect! :) On my last birthday I threw a costume party and there was even a competition for the best costume. :)
11. No, I didn’t dye my hair, because I’m currently completely in love with my original hair color.
12. Oh my gosh, I saw the Foo Fighters last summer and it was beyond amazing!!! It was the third time I saw them live and it was completely overwhelming!
13. That’s something I’m gonna do this year. :) But I painted lots of other smaller items of furniture white.
14. Haha, we were actually having a board game night in summer, but I forgot to make a hook. :) It was fun, we played Activity. :)
15. Well, I tried out lots of new recipes, but I didn’t take photos of all of them and I didn’t post the recipes online, I’m too lazy.
16. Oh yes, I sewed a shirt for my mother. :) One of the first pieces of clothing I ever sewed.
17. Mogli still doens’t know how to perfectly behave when he’s on his doggy leash. ;O)
18. I went on a short holiday with Flo during the winter holidays, it was my Christmas present and it was wonderful! <3
19. I’m really sad that Anja and I didn’t menage to go to the Baltic Sea last summer – when we wanted to, either one of us had no time, or the weather was too bad. Hopefully this summer!
20. I had a few picnics, I love that!
21. I actually sewed myself a duffle bag, without using a pattern and with a pretty matryoshka fabric.
22. Flo and I went a lot by bike last summer and I sometimes went by bike to a lake with one if my girlfriends. In spring, Flo and I surrounded some lakes by bike and had a picnic, that was fun!
23. I even visited my grandparents, it was great seeing them!
24. Ohhh, I always miss my mother so much, but I saw her as often as possible! <3

Last year has been really awesome!! <3
Have you done any of those things on my list? :) Did you have any goals you accomplished?
I’m soon gonna show you the list of 25 things I wanna do before 26. :)

Treasury List Feature on DaWanda

January 11, 2012





Guess who’s part of DaWanda’s latest treasury list? :) Yes, it’s Mogli! :) The lovely doggy bow tie I offer in my shop is included in the shopping list for Valentine’s day, so make sure to check it out. :)
Eeeks, I’m always so proud of seeing one of my products being featured somewhere, I just saw it by chance when logging in onto DaWanda. :)

Thank you for the nice comments concerning the post which I wrote about my experiences last year, it’s awesome that some of you felt encouraged by my words.
Thanks for stopping by! :)
