Designs that I like


Black tray with diachronic rainbow stripes


Black and clear glass is cut to size and fired at a full fuse to create one piece of glass. This firing takes approximately 14 hours. Dichroic rainbow stripes are place onto the fully fused piece and again fused for 14 hours to create one piece of glass. The piece is then slumped over a wave mold for another 14 hours and is now complete.

A wavy rainbow tray perfect for display of serving food.

Featuring WildDalliance


I love this type of illustrations. They make me think of old fairy tales and my childhood.
Here is what WildDalliance, the author says about it:

Meet Mollie...

She is the first in my new French Market, Petite Bohemienne series inspired by my childhood. For a few years we lived in a cozy little cottage that had somehow survived smack dab in the middle of a metropolis. It was so lovely and unexpected with a whimsical stone wall and a yard that was ever overwhelmed with wild flowers. In the summers the butterflies were everywhere.

Years later, the cottage is the place in my heart that I paint from. After all, every now and then it is nice to remember that once upon a time, when the world was different, I lived in sweet little sundresses and saddle shoes...

Halloween Coffee Cup Cozys

Another little film about my coffee cozys colection.
This is a compilation of Cozys with Halloween and Harestt theme print.
It is a perfect holiday gift that can be useful all the year around!



CUFFE - knitted coffee cup cuffs

I made this beautiful film with my cuffés - knitted coffee cup holders.
They are all of my original design and pattern. They all are two-colored and also cable knit, that makes them quite difficult to produce. But I like challenge! They also have a particularity, although they were not knitted in circle but on 2 knitting needles, they are seamless. I used "grafting" technique to join the edges together, and you will not be able to find the seam! It is very time consuming and needs some experience.

These "cuffés" can also be work as wrist warmers or bracelets.

I will soon be adding "cuffés" patterns to my etsy shop, so stay tuned!

Halloween is in the air! I can feel it! It gave me the inspiration to create something new - pumpkin amigurumi.





Amigurumi comes from Japanese language and means "knitted stuffed toy", usually miniature animals, fruits or vegetables but can also be an anthropomorphic creature.





My amigurumi pumpkins are knitted with acrylic yarn on knitting needles N:4. I created 2 versions of pumpkin amigurumi, both are knitted with 2 knitting needles. An experienced knitter can also knit them in circle with 4 or 5 needles.
They are about 2 and a half inches diameter and 2 inched high.

They can be used for Halloween and fall decoration, and they can decorate your kitchen all year round. They can be a cute gift and children wil adore playing with them. My son loves them!
