Hey Guys,

Back with another post! One more food related crochet and you know what I'm not mad at it. Turns out I actually like recreating food in woollen form. I wonder what I should do next? If you have any suggestions please do let me know.

Anyway. Enjoy. Until next time, keep creative!

Hey Guys,

Back with another post! I guess I just have food on the brain this year! Although it could be because I've been meaning to go on a diet and while in part I have been successful in starting it, I keep struggling to stick to it. I'll keep trying but if that's what keeps inspiring me, I doubt this is the last of the food stuffs!

This is one of my how-to videos, and I hope this provides some inspiration for you all in turn!

Anyway. Enjoy. Until next time, keep creative!

It's plushie time again, but with a mythical twist. I’ve never crocheted a unicorn before, which is why I felt that it was about time. However, I chose a beige colour palette instead of the typical white or rainbow mane. For reasons that might be related to a recent nail varnish I used… Anyway, I actually had some doubts during this project, and I have to admit there were times I just thought of abandoning it! But no, I had to Trust the Process™ at every stage and I'm glad I did, because she turned out so sweet!

Anyway, I love her, and I hope you do too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

It's plushie time again. I was having a think, and I realised that I haven't done a hippo so far - so why not do one now? Well, actually, this project came about because I was inspired by a new yarn colour – can you believe that? When inspiration hits, I tend to run with it and dive in headfirst. Admittedly that sometimes leads to disaster but most of the time it turns out well enough. Like this little guy! Isn’t he so cute in his little dungarees?

Anyway, I love him, and I hope you do too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

So, this is technically part of the last project, as in it's a follow up of it. I had initially wanted to include this wedding cake with the wedding wreath but as I didn't know what the cake looked like until I saw it at the wedding venue, I left it out. Turns out it was a pretty good cake - both to look at and to eat! This week’s project was to simply duplicate it but I think it turned out great! As you can see, it's a pretty fancy cake!

Anyway, I love this little confection, and I hope you do too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Hey Guys,

This week’s project was actually a pretty big one! I started several weeks ago, and it's just been a bit of an uphill struggle since. But mostly that was due to order cancellations, having to return incorrect items and scrambling around for replacements - and as result, having to re-plan a lot of things. I think the fact that once this project is complete, it's off to its forever home and that's not with me also made me a little reluctant to finish it. I tend to get attached to the things I make as it is but since this one is going to my partner's sister it also set off my doubts about my own artistic abilities.

But no - I soldiered through it all, I worked really hard on this project, and I really do hope the bride and groom both like it as much as I do. I'm so happy with the result and I love how the whole wreath turned out - I hope you like it too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

I bet you've never seen a capybara turned into a punk icon before. It's understandable, they're not very conformist and don't even hang out at the watering holes with the others! Ah, but seriously, I love my Punkybara. He's just the best combination of rebel, cuteness, and weirdness all mixed up, resulting in this cool looking little guy!

Anyway, I love how he turned out and I hope you like him too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

I've done it again; I've made more food items in amigurumi form! Well, any inspiration is good inspiration and sometimes hunger is what inspires you the most! The inspiration here was a simple - I bought some sushi, liked the cute little box and decided to recycle it in the way I like best. Creating fake woollen food! Sometimes simple is what's needed, and it works.

Anyway enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Hey Guys,

Let me introduce you to my version of Bepo, the Heart Pirates’ navigator. He turned out insanely good and - more importantly - according to plan. He may look simple, but there were some tricky parts to this project where I had to unravel my rows quite a few times. Who knew getting a polar bear's head just right could be so complicated? But saying that, sometimes the most satisfying projects for me are the ones I had to struggle with. With enough perseverance you can come through the other end of it with a satisfying result and something to be proud off!

Anyway, with that said, I love how he turned out and I hope you like him too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Easter eggs are always tempting at the time of year. I myself don't particularly like them, but I do like the idea of them. So, this year I'm making my own pretty egg that I can display and enjoy for the entire year, because, why not? Anyway, happy easter and enjoy my sugar free, diabetic and vegan friendly chocolate-free chocolate egg. Ah, I love how it turned out and I love it so much!

I hope you like it too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Ok, here's where I admit that I've never actually tried bubble tea :O Shock! Horror! I live near so many bubble tea shops and more seem to pop up every month or so, but I still can't bring myself to try it. I have a thing with textures, and this just feels like it would trigger me in some way. But I can't deny that the drinks look visually appealing! Anyway, I figured I'd make a yarn based one and that way I can have bubble tea without having bubble tea. Hahaha!

Yeeaaah, my inspiration took an odd turn with this one!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

I made another devil fruit! Yay! I have to say that I'm really enjoying making these, they look so cute. Of course, I had to make the one fruit that looks like a heart shaped strawberry. It's so distinctive - I hope you like my take on the Ope Ope no Mi. Personally, I love how it turned out.

I hope you like it too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Hey Guys,

Back with another post!

I was experiencing a little bit of decision paralysis trying to start this project. The same questions kept popping into my head time and time again like: What version of Luffy should I do? What outfit should I put him in? Should I attempt any of the gears? What if he gets hungry? You know, actually gear 4 would have been kinda funny - but you get the gist. In the end I just threw away all those questions and just kept it simple. Keeping things simple means that I can always add to him later on if need be, and I'll always have a good base to start from unless of course I want to do a version of Luffy that is significantly different structurally from what I already have - case in point gear 4.

Anyway, with that said, I love how he turned out and I hope you like him too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Well, this project has a bit of a troublesome back story! It had its ups and downs, with time consuming elements, undelivered materials, user error with crafting supplies and pushed back schedules. In spite of all that, I love, love the way my little Elphie turned out. She's so cute, her glasses are fire and the hair is just chefs kiss. Okay it was a hell of a project, but the ups and downs were all definitely worth it for the final look. Now would I do it again..? ABSOLUTELY NOT! I'm sorry I didn't mean to be so adamant but no. I have one of her, and she is mine, and that is all I need!

Anyway, I hope you like her too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Hey Guys,

Back with another post! It was a bit of a snap decision to go ahead and make this mushroom girl grey. Well, actually, no that's not "quite" true. I had to pick an alternate colour as I couldn't source any off-white but using pure white is a pain to film against since my background is also white! So, I just picked the lightest grey I have. At one point I did consider making it an elephant, but I've done that recently so… No! :)

Anyway, I love how it turned out.

I hope you like it too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!

Hey Guys,

I always love making kumihimo projects because the process of weaving is actually quite therapeutic and relaxing. Beaded kumihimo is what I love the most but now and again I like to switch things up and increase the number of cords I use. You can create some really intricate patterns that way. Anyway, here's the bag charm, I love how it turned out!

I hope you like it too!

Enjoy! Until next time, keep creative!
