Two map birds

Kuva
Here are two paper cut bird/swan cards which I made during this evening.  I had saved some random maps so this time I used map (I usually use old book pages) as the main material and card stock as side material. 

Another loom knit scarf

Kuva
Here is another scarf which I have finished quite recently. I made this for myself. For the yarn I used Marino soft. I really love the colors of this yarn.  I used one ball of this yarn.

Pink fabric

Kuva
Here is a pencase/bag which I made during last Saturday,unforfunately while I was sewing this I managed to broke my sewing machine a bit. 😅 But luckily my boyfriend also has a sewing machine so I managed to finish this bag. I got the fabric from my aunt. I shortened both of those zippers,they were a bit too long for this project. I wanted this bag to have a pocket for my smaller pens.

Upcycled shirt/Shirts part three

Kuva
Here is the other shirt which I bought from the fleamarket. This upcycling project I made during this week. The shirt's original buttons were unpractical,so I sewed different buttons for their place,I used the buttons of the beige shirt from the bunny project. When I started this project I noticed that the other pocket was a bit of torn. So, I tried to fix the problem with a bit of thin denim fabric,by sewing two pieces of that extra denim for the place of the pockects. I know that they are not symmetricly sewn into place,but I tried. I probably wear this shirt something with long sleeves. But in the end I'm quite happy how it looks despite the small flaws. (Maybe at some point I will try to fix it a bit).

Vest/Shirts part two

Kuva
 I bought this shirt from a fleamarket last year. I also bought another shirt as well (I'll write about that on the next post). Anyway, I used this shirt as a material for a vest.  I used the shirt's  own buttons and button holes for this,so I didn't have to sew any buttons or other.  I finished sewing this vest yesterday. I had vest pattern, which I had saved a long time ago.  Sewing of the vest was quite easy. I really like the end result.

Weekend earrings

Kuva
Here are few pairs of earrings which I made during last weeks Saturday. My favorite pairs are probably those lace ones and those with the skull beads.  With the skull earrings I used my favorite kind of beads (the skulls) and I also added old diary keys in the end of them. The wooden "beads" on the second one are actually from an old boad game. The buttons on the last pair are from the shirt which I used to make a bunny.

A necklace and a pair of earrings

Kuva
Here are a pair of earrings and a necklace which I made during the weekend. As the material I have used  few pieces of a lace tablecloth,thin metal wire to connect those pieces together and I also used few beads from an old necklace which I had bought from a flea market long time ago.
