The one with the things I liked this week (part 36)

I love it when friends bring over cake for no reason

Taken home after a trip to the library (the books, not the box)

Catching up on last season's Mad Men

Supplies to make bracelets this weekend, gotten from Atelier Luna

The first pumpkin of the season. This guy was made into soup

The one with an aztec brooch

What you'll need:

• bright nailpolish, I used 4 different colours
• wooden oval, mine was 5 centimeters. I got it from this shop
• tape
• brooch pin
• hobby glue
• black marker, in the picture is a sharpie, but that one didn't really work as well as I hoped, so I used another one.
• varnish

 Add tape

 Paint, I also painted the sides. Each colour was applied three times.

 Remove tape

 Paint some more, I left one part uncoloured

 Glue the brooch pin to the back

 Make patterns with your marker. I finished it with a layer of varnish.

The one with the things I liked this week (part 25)

I loved these as a kid, I remember having one of the Popples

A new, darker hair colour

On the streets

Swedish and Spanish mail

Getting creative, I guess I haven't used this since the eighties

There are new notebooks and cards added to my Etsy shop. And I am having a little Christmas in July sale, 

with couponcode CIJ10OFF you'll receive (you might have already guessed!) 10% off. 

The one where I try to explain how to make a bracelet

What you'll need:

• ballchain, 18 centimeters
• 120 centimeters of nylon cord (0,8 millimeter)
• 1 connector 
• hobby glue

What you'll need to do:

 Start with making a knot under the first ball

 make a forward knot with the left strand

 over the ballchain, underneath the ballchain and over the thread

pull thight

Do the same with the right strand, you'll make a knot underneath the same ball as you did with the left one

That's basically all you need to do

Stop making knots till there are two balls left and make one extra knot on the back of the bracelet. Add a drop of glue and cut the leftover cord. Add the connector, and you're done!

I got my supplies (except for the glue) from Atelier Luna
