> My slippers needed a vacation, or actually, they needed retirement. My lovely, warm, cozy slippers needed a replacement. What to do? Well, I digged out my crafting litterature, and in the Swedish book Do Redo : konsten att slakta en trĂśja, there they were, my new slippers made by recycling an old sweater. I used some thick white woolen felt from Panduro for the soles, wich is nice and warm, and gives a great support. Only trouble with this is that they are a bit slippery.

Finally. Le pantalon rouge is finished! Le pantalon rouge as an idea has existed for quite a while. Anders has been talking about me sewing a pair for at least a year and a half.

These three cushions here are all made out of stuff I had laying around (except for the velvet, which I bought half a meter of, realizing it is the most old lady-like material in the whole wide world, not including filet crocheted things, but more on that another time). And to make that clear at once: I LOVE old lady- like things. I love everything about them; the clothing, the home decorating, the way they walk down the street, how…

I think there were some flowers on it too. I really liked it. I think it looked a little something like this: Now I think my mother uses it, and all my rings & things fill up a whole bureau.I, off course, am the only one to blame.

 Hi there! I´m Sølvi Elise. Welcome to my little corner of the Internet. This is a space where I share my craft projects and thoughts and ideas concerning handmade in a consumerist world.
I live in Oslo, Norway where I use my spare time stitching up my own wardrobe. So far, I´d say that 80 % of my closet is filled with me-mades. I also have an interest in historical sewing, embroidery, knitting, crochet, leatherwork, tablet weaving, rigid heddle loom- weaving, cocktails, jewelry making, makramÊ, shoe making, drawing, paper craft, machine knitting and generally any craft that looks like fun.
