Where Happy Lives

I had some idle time and I have been eyeing my little white birdcage for a while. It was cute when I bought it but needed some touch up. Last weekend I was given a little book about felting and crocheting.  I haven't done any felting works really so first I will look at it as an inspiration.

It had an instruction to do a small felt nest/tent and a bird. We have a word here in Finland "Lintukoto" if I translate it it means bird home but it doesn't really mean actually that. It means a place that is small, cozy and safe place. A sort of happy place.

We are starting to have snow in here and woolly, cozy place would be nice. So here it is...in very small size :D The nest is just first try and it is hanging just with small bow. And I stitched the carpet all around to the mesh floor. The bird cage is about 12 centimeters in diameter.

A friend of mine Satu asked a long time ago if I could make her a pouch for her external hard drive. I had just then bought napkins from drift store and I knew it was the right fabric to her. But I was still living a slow time at creativity so the pouch was left at shelf to wait for a better moment.

Satu's birthday was at this month so I finally got a grip of myself and made the pouch ready. Little bit linen sash and some lace and it was finished. It has a thin wadding inside so the hard drive will stay safe in a bag.

Hello again!

Another sad gingerbread house made by me :D I said last year that I should do these more than once a year to be better but naah. Anywhooo this is The Tardis from Doctor Who...or it tries to be XD


I did it few days ago and put off posting it 'cos I wanted to fix it but lazyness took the better of me. And lets face it. More icing doen't fix he problem. But I can garantee that I will have a blast eating it after Christmas.

And ofcourse yesterday was the 20th :D Today I share some lovely christmas houses of small sort ;)

Oooh the Internet how I love you!! I didn't have access to internet for few days and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to blog this year but *happy dance* everything is fine now.

Here are some cute garlands to put around your house. I got my christmas tree decorated yesterday and it has just red bead garland on it but these need to be made someday.
