moving

okey, I thought that I would try blogger.com out, most people use it so I thought "this must be good" but, well I kind of miss all the nice stuff on wordpress.com, stuff like statistics and so, so I am moving my creativity blog to there in stead.
From now and on you can find my stuff on

chocolate

this weekend have been spent making homemade chocolate, easy to make and nice giveaways for Christmas. Really it is easy to make them, and they look really nice to.

1. Melt chocolate and paint the molds (I used both a real chocolate mold and ice cube molds) with chocolate, let them dry and then paint one more layer and let that layer dry to.

2. Make the filling. I use 1dl of non whipped whipped cream, warming it to a boil and then I put 200 grams of roughly chopped chocolate into the whipped cream and stir it until it is a nice and even cream. Then you can put some kind of flavoring into it but I keep mine plain.

3. Fill your molds but not to the top with the filling, I put some hazelnuts and walnuts into my filling.

4. Melt some more chocolate and fill up your molds to the top.

5. Leave in the refrigerator over the night.

6. Then it is just to pop your babies out of their molds and start the decorating I used white chocolate and nuts.

Look, pretty and tasty things to eat and give away to dear ones :)

a little black corset

my first corset for myself with a busk, waisttape, real nice steel boning and 2 layers of coutil. There is nothing more that I can say about it then that I love it. It fits like a glove, I can reduce it 10 cm (4 inches) without any problems and there is still 10 cm (4 inches) to go before it is totally closed. Since I made the pattern myself, the shape is just like I like it to be and it is like a second skin.

I made it to be "boring" and to work with everything ^^ boring and wonderful. I will try and get some pictures of me in it tomorrow.
