Je vous en montre un p'tit dernier. Je vais m'arrêter sur ce tampon ex-libris car j'en ai realisé pas mal. La demande était celle-ci : "l'image d'une jeune femme brune qui porte un bob et qui lit un livre, en référence au tableau La liseuse de Fragonard".
C'est toujours hyper réjouissant à réaliser, toujours un challenge à relever. Il faut que l'illustration plaise mais également que j'arrive à graver dans des formats assez petits parfois. Ici le visuel mesure 5 x 5 cm.

This rustic necklace is inspired by vintage, Victorian brass stampings and features a detailed celestial moon in smiling profile.

- This brass statement necklace features elaborate victorian filigree & Czech glass beads in organic shapes as accents
- Necklace measures 15 1/2" or 39 cm with a 2" or 5cm extender
- Closes with a brass lobster clasp
- Extender chain adorned with a small faux French jet drop

I made a functional thing today. I crocheted an Armrest Cover for my husband, because his ellbows need protection from the hard plastic armrest. It's essentially just a rectangle in single crochets, then I threaded an elastic through and pulled to tighten a bit. Knotted the elastic ends together and ta-daaa... The covers fit like a charm!
Yarn used is Katia Bambi, a bulky velvet yarn.

Monsters have babies too.
Baby monsters are even harder to find than the elusive "baby" pigeon. Very few folks can say that they've seen them, let alone created their portraits. I have been lucky. As you might imagine, monster parents can be a bit protective. Mothers in particular. They consider us (humans) more than a bit strange and potentially dangerous. It took most of my free time, lots of monster "treats" and carefully followed Monster Etiquette to befriend just a few of them. Even then, I felt a bit nervous and on edge as I made sketches of their most beloved offspring. It is always a good idea to remind oneself that monsters are ultimately unpredictable creatures, and should be given proper respect at all times.

One teeny, solitary baby stands precariously on Moms scaly leg.

That one was a cool project. A Newsboy hat made from recycled jeans cotton yarn, with an actual Jeans Button as an accent. You know what's cool about Jeans Buttons? No sewing, they are hammered in. :D

Pattern: Finley Newsboy Hat by Justine Walley (AlyseCrochet)
Yarn: Save the Yarn Recycled Jeans Baumwolle
