Raaaaaa! DINOSAUR.

During the lazy, hazy days of summer, my friends and I did a lot of knitting. Many of us decided to make dinosaurs because they are easy and rather awesome.

This little fellow was knitted by my friend Joan. Look at him go! Creating a ruckus all over the Chessboard.

Have a great weekend!

I Knitted Love Hearts and I Like Knitting With My Friends.

Hey There!

Below are some snaps of a little family of love hearts I knitted not too long ago. Here's a link to the pattern if you would like to try them yourself. They're very fast and very easy to make. Go on! Give them a try. You know you want to.

Knitting became a very popular activity for my posse and I this summer! As we were all funemployed, we spent hours on end chatting, listening to smooth jazz and knitting a variety of creatures. It was quite lovely indeed!

Hoot Hoot. Hoot Hoot. Owl Family.

I like owls a whole lot. I think they may just be the animals that I like the most. Sloths would be the closest competition. However, it is incredibly hard to find a good knitting pattern for a sloth. As such, I knit many owls! They are very cute.

If you would like to knit one of these owls, you can find the pattern here. It is incredibly easy and very fast too. Just how I like my knitting patterns!

My sister Clare even adapted the pattern to make a baby owl. It is quite adorable indeed. Now we have a whole family of owls residing on our bookshelves. Hoot Hoot!

I hope you all enjoyed the weekend! Have a wonderful week.

Bríd Did Découpage.

I covered these notebooks with comic books that I bought in a charity shop for 50c each. They were for my friend Gary who often takes photos for this blog. If you would like to give découpaging a try, Natalie previously did a post about it which you can see here. Have a go! 

 "Swamp Thing" is his favourite comic so I covered a box with pages from an old edition of it.

The shoes below I got custom made at a shop in Venice. Gary is a big fan of "Where The Wild Things Are". He even has a tattoo of it. They are super cool. They're just a white pair of Vans with the image screen-printed onto them. Enhanced Vans I say!

I hope you all have a lovely week!

Bríd Knitted an Egg Cosy.

Worried about your eggs getting cold and shivering? Solution: KNIT AN EGG COSY. You can make an adorable little fellow like this to cuddle your eggs and keep them nice and warm. Isn't it oh so pointless and sweet?

Enjoy the end of summer!

Feather Fascinator!

I made this fascinator early this year for a party I was going to. It was an "Aquarius Rising" party. The dress code was blue and white so I decided to get a bit creative. As I have very little hair, there's not much I can do with it so I like to make things like this to put in it.

This was incredibly easy to make. I simply got a hairband, a selection of feathers and a whole lot of fabric glue. I just stuck the feathers on the hairband and then left it to dry. Voila! I had yet another thing to stick in my hair. 

Hope you're having a lovely weekend!
