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.

Craftshow

Today I was at a local craft show that is called Deajnmarknad (design market), there were a certain lack of people coming to buy things, but it is always so much nice people selling nice stuff so it was fun anyway, I drank a whole lot of coffee on empty stomach so in the end of the day my hands started to tremble terribly so that hemming my newly woven napkins turned out to be a bit tricky. I like having things to do with my hands at all times, time spent with nothing to do with your hands are wasted time for me, the only time that my hands are out of work is when I sleep ;)

My table


I had a hard time getting people to take my moocards, they did not seem to understand that there were business cards as well, so people only took my big cards.


My new chokers, I really like them ^^

sorry

Okey, so now I'm actually trying this blog again, giving it a new chance! So yes, this will be my "I make stuff" blog in english of course, since swedish people can just look at my life on learningtofly.bilddagboken.se I don't miss a day on that place. It is really odd that I can not keep a blog alive, or well, I have a blog, but it is my blog were I whine about life. this should be here for inspiration and I WILL try to update it at least once a week or something. Remember that I said try.
