Gultiņas dekorācijas

I spent all my day "decorating" crib for my baby. I bought fabric and made side padding for the crib, also made new matching sheet for the mattress.


Nice little apron

This year I am into making things for little children, these are one of those things.


Wasp waist corset

I made this corset a while ago but it turned out too big for me. Pity that i am so lazy and haven't made it smaller. So it is in my closet, unworn.
It can be worn from both sides.

Christmas decorations

This year i wanted to make my own Christmas decorations and that's what i made.

Bottles

As an exchange student I had a lots of time during my drawing classes, it seemed like I was used to working much faster than others, so teachers gave me more tasks. If my classmates had to make one drawing, I had to make two. But still, I had a lot of free time, so  I started my own experimental tasks. For my birthday I was given a gift of 3 pretty decorative bottles and I decided to draw them, to explore shadows and things like that. I kind of fell in love with bottles, so I continued my task with any bottles we had in classroom.


Some drawings

This drawing I made for my friend, she had a birthday and she likes tulips.
And those ones I made when I was living in Norway as an exchange student.
The task was to remake this picture and draw a face of someone I know.
 So I drew a face of my brother.

Some earrings

These are some of my earrings I have made for the last years.



Ludo experiment

For two months I worked in a children toy shop, it was very interesting to work there, but I understood that working from 10:00 to 21:00 or working for someone else is not for me. I was just starting to realise that I want to earn my money with the things I really like and that I can actually do that.
But while I was working at that shop, I was exploring new games and got an idea of making a Ludo game.

This was the first attempt, it looked nice, but the material for the pieces was wrong, it was breaking, so i had to think of something else.

Pottery experiment

This winter at Christmas time I had two big projects - pottery experiment and an order for 25, no 35 fabric bowls.
Why do I call it a pottery experiment- I had never made so many pottery dishes, so I had no ideas how many of them would survive ( it happens that they brake while they are getting burned ), but luckily for me, all my dishes survived and I had a lot of presents to give for my relatives:)
