10.03.2012 New Tights

Tights: H&M

One day I saw these tights walking on the street (yes, I'm one of them who always watch the clothes instead of the people passing by, haha) and I fell in love with them. Somehow I knew they were from H&M and yessssss I found them there! Happy happy me! They are absolutely my new favourites, mmm!

Knitting a beanie

Knitting a beanie

Beanie: made by me

I hadn't been knitting in years because I always ask my grandma to make me mittens and woollen socks and everything. But one day I found that old mitten and it had no pair, and I liked that shade of brown so much that I just had to get something made out of it. Bought some more yarn and decided to make a beanie! I really like the result. And knitting was so relaxing, I really should do it more often!

26.01.2012 The prettiest saucepan I've ever seen

 Saucepan: second hand (4,50€)

This is so pretty! Unfortunately my sister saw it before me... I wish to find something as pretty as that, too. Makes the cooking a lot more enjoyable!

25.01.2012 Ugly notebooks !

Notebooks: 2€ per piece (Suomalainen kirjakauppa)

Envelopes: 1€ (Suomalainen kirjakauppa)

My mission was to find cheap and ugly notebooks and I think I succeeded very well! Who really wants to buy notebooks like that? And who the heck has made them? They are so ugly that it makes me laugh. We'll see how they'll change!

21.01.2012 New beanie !

Beanie: second hand (1€)

Oh yes! I've been needing more beanies for some time now and this is just perfect! Like it a lot. Hmm, I guess violet is becoming one of my favourite colours, been wearing it quite a lot these days...

16.01.2012 Making pipe pants

Shopping (pants?!?)

 Brown pants: second hand (1€)

Orange shirt: second hand (1€)

Violet pants: second hand (1€)

Dark red shirt: second hand (1€)

Flower pants: second hand (3€)

Normally UFF is a bit too expensive for me, but they had sales and I had to gooo! And surprisingly I bought PANTS! That's strange because I like skirts so much more and wear pants quite rarely. But the truth is I can't resist corduroy pants...mmmmmm...

Those flower pants are so so cute!!! I think I'm in love with them.

P.S. Haven't had time to update this blog, oh nooo, posts are almost two months late...

01.12.2011 Birthday gift to myself!

This is the skirt I made for my birthday! The fabric is recycled and cost around 2€. And the making process, well, I must admit I lost my patience once or twice... The result is far from perfect (I can imagine what my old teacher would say if he could see this, haha...) and for example I have no idea what I was thinking when I chose the brown thread, but still, after all, I'm quite satisfied, because this was my first attempt of making a skirt without any instructions or patterns or people telling me what to do! So, I congratulate myself.

25.12.2011 So pretty !

Oooooh, brown boots! Got these as a gift from a friend, or actually they were too small for her, and now they are miiiiiine and they are so prettyyyyyyyy! And she told me they cost only 0,05€, wow!

17.12.2011 Someone knows I love the Moomins!

Ooh, it's so cute and I love that shade of green! And I just love to get real mail, really made my day. Thank you, my dear friend.

By the way, what's the new thing with the little suitcases? I used  to have "The Muppet Show" suitcase as a medicine box, and a bit after that I started to see cute little suitcases everywhere! They are way too cute!

One day, when I'll have my own flat again (and some money), I would also like to get real, old suitcases and store all my fabrics in them. I saw this idea in some decor blog and it looked soooo cool.

A bit like this:

19.10.2011 Dying hair with henna

I'd been thinking about testing the henna colour for a long time, because it's nature-friendly, and now I finally did it. I had the colour on for two hours!!! But it was definitely worth it. I'm satisfied with the result and actually the colour got a bit darker with time, so even better. From now on, I'm gonna dye my hair only with henna!

P.S. Still not satisfied with the haircut, but don't know what to do with it...
