Get flash to fully experience Pearltrees
Due to my sluggishness in housekeeping and bad time-management, I seldom cleaned up my craft room after each project. Also, I always start a new project immediately after one, and most of the time I am on several projects simultaneously. My hands work slower than my brain, this is the major one to blame! With so many things to do at one time, all my craft materials are all over my working space, on the table, in the drawers, on the floor and some even still in the bags of the craft store where I bought them from….. one word, MESSY!!!

House Keeping | Ribbons Storage Organizer
Due to my recent shopping and frequent trips to craft stores, the box that I used to keep my lovely ribbons is exploded and messy. I no longer can find any ribbons without have to pour everything out and de-tangle some of them. I am trying my best to keep my craft room as tidy as the one I posted here after every project.
Gillian Travis - Le blog de Patchacha
Jeudi 24 mai 2012 4 24 / 05 / Mai / 2012 10:00 Pas de dessin aujourd'hui (je sais, je suis en retard), mais quelque chose qui m'a inspirée lors de mon voyage à Nantes . En effet, j'ai pu non seulement y admirer de travail de Gillian Travis mais aussi "bricoler" avec elle. Elle est dynamique, a une idée nouvelle à chaque instant et aime partager, comme la plupart des artistes textiles que j'ai rencontrées ! J'ai vraiment apprécié cette rencontre.
I Have Been Changed For Good
I love this song from Wicked the Musical . It speaks to me and reminds me of all the wonderful people I have met who have left handprints on my heart. Those who, having met them, have changed me..for good.
Locker Hook | Indigo Dial Trivet
If you remember my recent book review and introduction about Locking Loops , you should remember Theresa Pulido, the author of the book. I have been a big fan of Theresa Pulido’s locker hook crafts & projects, and her books “Locking Loops: Unique Locker Hooking Handcrafts to Wear and Give” and Hook, Loop ‘n’ Lock: Create Fun and Easy Locker Hooked Projects are really creative and inspiring. Theresa has brought me to the world of locker hook and I love this craft ever since. Today, I am very excited and feel honored to have Theresa here to show us how to make these beautiful trivets, they are truly eye candy and perfect for your dining or coffee table [more colors on picture 2 and 3 above].
Just can’t help for not making these sweet little macaron coin purses when one of Craft Passion’s Facebook fans showed them to me. Thanks to XYZZhandmade for her inspiring handmade and some tutorial links in Japanese, this , this , this and this . No, I can’t read Japanese but I can guess from the pictures on how to sew it. Here is the English version of tutorial on how to sew this macaron coin purse where I add more details in the sewing.

How to sew a mini bunny sachet
According to Lunar Calendar and Chinese astrology, the world has entered into Rabbit year starting from this spring （立春）, that’s today, February 4th, 2011. As a memento of the year, I made some bunny sachets. I filled them with silica gel (in bead form) and turn them into desiccant bags for my metal notions stored in the glass bottles. The silica bead will help in controlling the humidity in the glass bottle, hence to protect the metal from oxidation and degradation. This project is ideal if you have a lot of fabric scraps that you want to de-stash.

Maison de poupée - Jaffy-Fleur de Lys
Gosh… I am supposed to sew some thing for the Earth Month this April, but I can’t wait to sew these sock monkeys. My hands simply took over my head and see what I did after a few days and nights of sewing…. a house full of sock monkeys!!!! Do you love them? I have seen a lot of sock monkey photos hanging around friends’ photo albums in many photo sharing websites, so envy. These sock monkeys are so cute and so adorable that I would want to hug one, I bet my kids would love to have them to accompany too when mommy is busy with works.

CRAFTYisCOOL: Wanna make a monster?
Time for another tutorial! I made this lineup of baby monsters for my Basic Amigurumi class at The Knitting Nest . I think they're a pretty good beginner project because it teaches how to start crochet in the round, how to single crochet, how to increase, and basic construction and customization of amigurumi. Let's begin, shall we?<div id="no-javascript" class='error' >Votre navigateur internet n'est pas configuré pour lire le Javascript.

Stuffed Fabric Turtles (with pattern pieces)
We were shopping around , down in Florida, after we went to the zoo several weeks ago ( yes, in Jacksonville…..some of you asked )……..and we stopped by a Pottery Barn Kids store. I’m a window shopper. Well, and an inspiration-seeker shopper. I love walking around and daring myself to find something I want to make.Last year I participated in the Renegade Craft Fair here in Austin. It was so much fun and I hope I have time to do it again next year. (This year is definitely OUT--ahem...book....!) I wanted to design something with an owl since everything Renegade is represented by an owl.
