There is a special category of people for whom marketplaces and mass-market stores have nothing to offer. No, this isn’t about billionaires who shop exclusively for luxury goods. It’s about talented artisans who have been kissed on the forehead by the muses of creativity. They now create such cool and unique things that all you can do is be jealous. And deep down, you wonder, “Maybe I could do it too?”
I’m new to crocheting, but I quickly realized I wouldn’t have enough yarn. So I had to improvise.
My first bag

A little craft I made dedicated to my sweet Candy
Girls, I finally made a corset that doesn’t hurt to wear!
I wanted to learn felting. This little penguin became my very first project.
I made a ring with a tiny mosaic. I’ve done it many times, and every time it turns out differently.
