Project: Handmade Dolls

I found this photo on an old memory card that I totally forgot about. After going through my photos from a year and a half ago, I was happy to find this picture of some cute dolls that I made for my friend’s baby. I remember when I was finished making them I wanted to keep them for myself. I didn’t of course..

Project: Plush Cupcake for The Package Project

I have finally been assigned a partner for The Package Project

After taking a peek of my partner Kara’s blog, I noticed that she definitely has a thing for cupcakes. So I thought what would be cuter than a plush cupcake??

It was very fun to make and sewing the square miyuki beads on as the sprinkles makes this plush cupcake quite the treat.

I will be posting this to Kara along with some other little goodies very shortly. I hope she likes it!

Project: Reversible & Foldable Tote Bag

xx The Reversible and Foldable Tote Bag xx

It’s always fulfilling when you complete a project and it turns out to be easy and better than anticipated. This tote fits in your handbag so it comes in handy for a day out of shopping!

I used a lovely heavyweight upholstery fabric from Ikea for one side, and a cute brown polka dot lightweight fabric for the reverse side.

Carry Your Laptop in One of These Babies

I was stumped for ideas for a present until I stumbled across this DIY project from Design*Sponge. I decided to modify it slightly and make it into a laptop sleeve using a more heavyweight fabric.

The outer fabric is a buttery soft navy blue leather and the lining is a printed wool blend mix which I bought from a little shop in Tokyo’s fabric town, Nippori.
