Craft It Forward 02.



It is time! ;)

Who wants to play Craft It Forward? Handmade gifts are the best and don't you just love to receive little packages with doilies, bows and masking tape on them? I do!

How do you participate?
It's simple! You just need to leave a comment on this blogpost and the first five who do that will receive one of the packages full of handmade stuff I put together! When you receive it, you need to blog about it (before the end of 2012) and give away five handmade things to five other people too! Yay for handmade! :D

The packages I put together contain different handmade stuff like cards, pins, stickers, a brooch, etc.!

* I waited way too long with posting this (stupid me!) and this project can only exist/go further when you really stick to the rules! So I'm going to ask you (although I haven't been the best example!) to only participate if you really have the time to blog, make and send. :) Thanks!

Craft It Forward 01.


Hello!

I'm that kind of person that wants to do a thousand things all in one free day and then eventually ends up staring at a television or computer screen. Sometimes I'm just overwhelmed by ideas, thoughts and plans, do you ever get that feeling?

Well, I planned to write this blog post for ages now and I just never did. *slaps herself in the face* But here it finally is!

I received this lovely deer head from Marlous (Planet Fur) a while back. She gave some of these away because of this fun project; Craft It Forward! The idea is that you make five things, give them away to five different people and then they should blog (!!!) about it and give five handmade items away too! Okay. So I failed at the blogging part. Of course I hope you won't. ;)

Marlous makes all kinds of cute stuff for your home (or wedding!) under the name of Planet Fur! She owns an Etsy shop where she sells her handmade products, you should definitely check it out! Besides making beautiful things, she also is the kindest person, has a gorgeous home (follow her blog to see lots of pictures!) and owns the cutest little cat; Molly!
This Sunday she will give a workshop in making felt deer heads (like the one she sent me) in my shop Elle Aime in Rotterdam! I can't wait!


Thanks, Marlous, for your lovely gift and for your patience! I'm so sorry I did not blog earlier about this fun project!!

Oh and I almost forgot! Of course I'm going to give away five handmade goods too! :) Tomorrow I will announce how you can participate and what I will send you if you do! Yay!
