School, but not...

So classes have yet to begin, and today was a total relaxation day for me. I played with the cats and crafted. I even got some sketching in!
I have been trying to make things for the house lately and so far I have made these little things:

This is something I made to keep my necklaces from getting tangled. All I did was to take a piece of wood, paint it, drill holes, and then take different fun doorknobs and put them in the holes. It was a fun and easy project that i thought of a few weeks ago.

This is something i got from my mom, and all i did was to paint, decorate, and then put it together. The letters are glittery, I actually got them at Walmart for like 7 dollars, a big pack of them! i would like to add something to it but I dont know what yet.

I also made a round card for my youngest sisters. I got them cute little shirts and wanted to send a card with it.

Majken and Kajsa are causing trouble, so I have to go downstairs and see what they are up to!

Love,
Elin

mini album

Fist of all, sorry for the poor quality of these pictures.
I was inspired when i saw my mom's new scallop punches and decided to make a mini album and because i'm kitten crazy right now, what subject would be better than my little kitten Majken!

First i had to sandpaper the pieces so the paint would stick better, i probably painted about 4 layers on each side to make the sides really white.

The album itself is not more than about 5 centimeters and therefore i could not fit much text on the pages but is it not true that a picture says more than a 1000 words?

Last weekend me an Majken too a trip to moms house to visit the siblings (both mine and Majkens), she absolutely hates sitting in the carrier so i let her sit in m lap (Mike was driving). When we parked I let her walk around on the dashboard and she was absolutely fascinated by the birds that were flying outside. I just though she was so cute the way she was sitting and looking out the window.

Happy late midsummer and early 4th of July

Scrapbooking Kitten?

KWell today my little Majken had been running around all day and i had barely gotten to see her at all. So when i came home and put up my scrapbooknig project on the table, little Majken came over sat right on all my things, and eventually fell asleep amongst all my papers and pictures.

Kittens are just too cute!

Some more

Here are some other projects that i worked on a little while ago.

This is actually made out of a Pringles package:

I made it so i would have some organized and nice ways to store my pens in the new house.

I think i have kitten-fever:

This is what she looks like when she isn't: running hopping, biting, or playing ... always a cutie :-)

Updating

I created this book about one month ago and i decided that maybe I should post it anyways.

Although you may not be able to see it anymore, the album is actually made out of macaroni packages. All i did was to cut out the form that i wanted and then paint it several times to make the original color not show through.

This was a gift and the point was that they should be able to add photos as they wished.

I left the windows open so that when the photos could show through.
