🌸Spring Dreaming custom foxy set 🌸

Enjoyed going along with this one a lot! Very happy with the result even though felt a little bit delirious by the end of it.

Custom Foxy for you

Cloudberry Felt Cake

Fascinating piece of fruit and such a beautiful symbol of the northern resilience. Somehow it's an important symbol for me as I'm trying to reconnect with my heritage.

As I was reading about cloudberries, I came upon this Finnish idiom: Metsä kuuntelee silloin kun kukaan muu ei (the forest listens when no one else does) and it gave me goosebumps.

🦔🪡 Hedgehog needle storage book

I don't think I'll make another one like this - with extra storage for needles. It was a special request by a customer who ended up ghosting me. Oh well.

I kinda like the idea of a hedgehog motif for a needle book, since hedgehogs have quills like needles. I don't know. It's cute.

🏷️ Clothing labels - are they overrated, unnecessary or super cute? Idk, but they sure do look sweet on DIY projects [etsy]

Vintage threads in my etsy shop

🎀🌸🎀

Sweet vintage delicate ribbons and trims from 70s-80s.

Decided to add these to my shop at the lowest prices I could afford. Just trying to help making crafting and DIYs more accessible to more people, plus I love photographing vintage goodies. It's definitely more satisfying starting your DIY project knowing that your sewing supplies are sourced in a sustainable manner.

Made a new small batch of needle booksies [etsy]

Also, was troubled and fascinated at the same time reading up on medieval history of relationships with domisticated cats. Obvisouly, you can guess that cats are supposedly satan's true worshippers and pure abomination. Wow. Wait, how did we get there?

But check out this sweet cat's name in Old Irish - Meone. Pure joy.

Have been making these books every year for the last three years now. They make me really happy, and I often use them as a reference for the past things. They remind me to treasure and appreciate my art achievements and with this, appreciate and treasure myself.
