The keys to my heart

This is my necklace with an old vintage typewriter key with the letter M. I bought it on Etsy at Lizzybleu typewriter jewelry. The old key I think belonged to my grandparents. I found it in a drawer just laying there waiting to be found. I’ve been searching for a key like this on the internet for quite a while now. I couldn’t believe how lucky I was! I think it was meant to be… I chose the letter M because my daughters name starts with an M.
I think the old key and the typewriter key makes a good combo. What do you think?

Second Hand

A drawer and some garbage

A while ago I bought a drawer used in old printer shops (Kastlåda in Swedish). Now it hangs in my crafty little corner and I have filled it with a bunch of tiny stuff.

At one of my favorite shops (Lagerhaus) I bought this little red garbage can and put some adhesive letters on it, the letters are from the same shop. SKRÄP = GARBAGE

Paper, buttons and flowers…

Yesterday I was visiting a fair (Syfestivalen) in Stockholm. It was sewing, knitting and scrapbooking and lots of other stuff there. I only bought some scrapbooking material because I promised myself to get on with my daughter’s mini album that I started to make a few months ago. So now that I have all this new stuff I don’t have any excuse not get started…

I’ve got mail!

Finally the package from Panduro arrived today! I’ve waited almost two weeks for it… Not all things that I ordered was in the package, I will get it in a couple of weeks. I’ve ordered some more fabric for the Christmas things I’ve been working on… Are you tired of hearing me talk about Christmas? I’m a bit tired myself ;-)

Tomorrow I will sew something, I have the apartment all by myself! I’m not sure yet what it will be. Tomorrow I show you some picture of it!

Dagens inköp

Idag har jag varit och fyndat lite tyg, band och knappar. Skulle kunnat komma hem med betydligt mer om inte min lilla dotter hade protesterat så högljutt!
