Halloweening - Halloween Party 2014

Happy Halloween everyone!
It's finally Halloween! I've taken the day off, planned the annual dinner... and got struck down with a cold. Nothing major, but enough to be really annoying and interfering with said prep. Luckily, I've already been to one Halloween party so let me share that with you tonight, and I'll see how much I can get done about dinner and let you know about that tomorrow. Sounds like a plan? I hope it does coz it's the only one I've got ;)

I scared so many people!

This was the annual LOTNA Halloween party, so lots of people brought edibles. The ones in the middle are mine but there were some seriously good things around!

I did have to take a closeup of my muffin tower though ;) The orange ones were banana muffins, the purple ones were lemon. I didn't make labels so I guess some people were surprised LOL

One of the members brought his camera and lights and everything so we could have some good shots taken. I love this one! I think it's quite scary...

We also had our Halloween pub quiz. Facebook didn't even recognise here so wouldnt tag me! Too funny :)

There were some great costumes! Kermit and Miss Piggy won 2nd place in the costume competition. They were adorable!

This was the winner of the costume competition, she was amazing! Can you believe this was made with gelatine and makeup only? It felt so creepy... definitely well deserved!

Some people had great makeup skills, check out these hands!

Sadly, I didn't win anything, but I still got 7 votes and managed to creep a LOT of people out. Since that was the aim, I declare this one a hit!

 Happy Halloween everyone, I wish you all a very spooky night :)

Scissor Sock Tutorial

Image
Hi all! I've had so many request from friends for these scissor socks that I wanted to share the tutorial with you. I've been sick for a while so this tutorial is well over due. This will be my first sewing tutorial so I hope it's clear enough :) Feel free to make you own or for friends or family, but please don't use it for commercial purposes or make them to sell. It is after all not my pattern. So let's get started :) You need: 2 pieces of fabric with different print Interfacing (with ironing option on one side only) Cord Ribbon 1 button  Beads Cutting mat and ruler Rotary cutter and scissors Some sort of circular template (I use a small plate) Needle and thread Cut the fabric and the interfacing to a rectangle of 9x12.5 inches (23x32 cm). Decide which fabric you want where, this will influence the next step. Use your circular template to round one corner. The fabric you want on the top and bottom of your sock will have t

Easter Prep Stage 3 - Happy Easter!

Image
Happy Easter everyone! I hope you're having a great day and no matter where you are you've had your fair share of Easter eggs whether real or chocolate. :) I was a bit late as usual so had a few last minute projects to complete last night... Lots of cool Easter projects though, let me show you:  I started this at last week's Craft Meet. Everyone around me was knitting and I felt a bit like a 5-year old with my paint chips cutting out eggs, but there was a need for it. I found a great idea on Pinterest and just had to try it. So I rushed to the DIY store and got a pile of paint chips... Taadaa, the Easter bunting! Isn't it the coolest! The original idea was found here (please link to the ORIGINAL POST when adding this to Pinterest if you want to pin this) , and I just love it! The paint chips I used were a little different from what the original post shows, and I thought it would be nice to have some diagonal eggs as well. THAT was not such a good id

Fabulising February - Men's Shirt Dress

Image
Hi everyone! Fabulising February is nearly over and this is the last project I have managed to complete.Tomorrow I'll post a short recap showing all the finished projects. Wanting to go out with a bang, I tackled a men's shirt that the bf bought online many years ago and forgot to return it so I wanted to make something nice out of it. Seems a waste to be throwing away a brand new shirt! Granted, it was white and while probably cotton it was very thick and stiff material. So I dyed it purple. Of course. Once it was purple, I then had to try and do something with it. Easier said than done! I finally found a cute idea for a dress in blogland (didn't save the link though) and I really wanted to try that. But the instructions were super tricky so in the mending pile it went. This is the shirt. Much too large even for the bf but purple at least ;) And a bit wrinkled for being in the bag for a very long time. But with only a little time left in my Fabulising February
