A Little Thread Goes a Long Way

Last Sunday, on Mother's Day, my sister's school had a fair to raise money for their school so I decided to make some earrings to be sold there. i used the same thread graphics technique that I wrote about here.
The weather was terrible on Sunday and there wasn't much people at the fair so I only sold 3 pairs, but it was still very exciting that somebody actually bought my earrings! :))










The last three pairs are the ones that have new owners now :))
Have a wonderfully sunny day!

Ciao-ciao,

Once Upon a Time There Was a Ceramics Class

So here's the post about my ceramics class (FINALLY!) or rather the things I made there. Keep in mind this was my first ever experience with clay and nothing came out exactly as I had imagined it :D
I really-really enjoyed the class and I will definitely take another ceramics class in the (hopefully) near future :))


 


 This was literally one of the two first things i made in the class, it was meant to be a cookie jar.... looks more like a vase ;D


 This was also one of the first things I made
 
 
 I made a very....umm...artistic tray ;D

 A coffee mug for my lovely hubby :))

A bowl with some stamps pressed in the center
 

 ...for fruits, cookies, chips, candy....all the things I love

Plate for serving all kinds of yummy stuff

 And also a couple of love-mugs :))

This wasn't my idea (although i wish it had been), I saw a picture of similar mugs on Pinterest and got inspired :))

Like I said already, i really loved that course, so I definitely have to take up ceramics again at some point.

Hope you're having an awesome day!
Ciao-ciao,
