Pouches and necklaces

Yesterday I spent most of my time behind my sewing machine..making pouches for the necklaces I sold from the Pink collection. I'm so glad many of you liked them and I'm really happy that I already sold so many this week. It was also kind of strange when I brought them to the post office...on their way to their new owners...everything from this collection is handmade by myself and I enjoyed working on them very much...hopefully I will have time to do more projects like this...click here to visit my etsy shop.

Bloesem’s Pink Collection

I am very happy to let you know that the first Bloesem jewelry collection… the Pink Collection… is now available! So how did this collection come into existence you wonder (especially since I have such a hard time finding jewelry that I think look nice on me…)…the last few weeks when my mom was visiting KL we did quite a bit of window shopping, my mom loves necklaces and we spend lots of time in jewelry stores…not buying anything… but both of us developed what I think is “necklace fever”… I was particularyly drawn to the 'simple' necklaces with big round stones and beads in earthy colors...so I took a leap of faith and actually bought  many wooden beads and stones that I really like and some equipment and created my own necklaces…the result...the Pink Collection…

...'Pink' because they all have one or more “Roze Quartz” stones….a few necklaces even have embroidered stones… I particularly like those…creating pieces that are just a bit different and a bit more personal….each necklace has a different design… so unique in a way… there are only twenty of them…

I think the necklaces will look wonderful on a cocktail dress… they have a festive look and are feminine and fun to look at… a bit nonchalant but also daring… not sure how else to describe them… you can wear them during Christmas dinner but also casually with a blouse or jeans or something… anyway, I hope you like them… the Pink Collection is available in Bloesem’s Etsy shop where you can see more images.

Knitting projects

Last week I finished some knitting projects for  a wonderful woman in San Fransisco (I truly hope 'Pos Malaysia' delivers the packages swiftly and safely, but they haven't let me down yet!)... I also did a small project for our home....

A pillow...it's my first knitted pillow ever... took me some time to complete (started in Toronto...)...I am quite happy with the result... and I think I will do a few more.... Knitting is so relaxing (even in 30 degrees celcius with the ceiling fan on...), some quiet time...thinking up new plans.... or just day dreaming... so to start off the week I thought I show you some of my knitting creations... I'll leave you with this post today...I hope you enjoy the 'wish gifts' weekend read... Carina Scott of NonchalantMom just send over her list of wish gifts, have a look here...{thanks Carina and enjoy Amsterdam!}
