Have you ever heard of “sugar scrapbooking”. Maybe I created this name and maybe I didn’t, but the principles I will be showing you in this and the next few articles suit this name 100%. “Sugar” because these decorations are made with so-called “sugar paper” which is wafer and fondant paper. And “scrapbooking” because I… Continue reading
Although angels are around us all the time, Christmas is a good time to remember them and to make them a part of our decoration and gifts as a reminder to be good, helping and loving people… Today I am sharing a project I have been postponing for weeks. Most of us believe angels are… Continue reading
This text was inspired by a lady who bought my coffee filter Peony hairclip tutorial. She asked me if it is possible to create a crepe paper Peony the same way and with the same purpose. My answer was: of course it is possible, but there are some difference because of the different type of… Continue reading
Ok, I admit, “Hug for kids” is a bit of a twisted title, but it absolutely encapsulates the main idea of my article, and also, the main idea of the producers of this Kid’s organic Lotion. Unfortunately on their site you can’t see the paper box, which I believe they should fix. When I first… Continue reading

Proteas are one of my favourite flowers. As you know, I grew up in Europe and even if we have all these amazing and beautiful flowers, we don’t have the “exotic” ones. For me, all the lands outside of Europe have such amazing plants, almost alien, which are impossible to not attract a flower lover’s… Continue reading
There is something about Peonies that attracts almost every woman. Maybe this is the specific messiness of the flower or maybe the huge variety of shapes and colour shades. Or could it be a reminder of a better time, a desire to return to the past in a beloved Granny’s garden in the past and… Continue reading
Maybe you don’t know, but I grew up in a socialist country where the craft materials were very limited and difficult to find. When the rest of the world was enjoying all their craft creation possibilities, we had to find ways to substitute materials which were missing in the shops in order to have any… Continue reading
I still have a lot of wonderful cardboard packaging pieces from our IKEA kitchen island… And as you know, I am a paper addict, so I can hear them calling me to involve them in different projects. And what else to do in this day, when strong winds are blowing from the North and thick… Continue reading
A long, long time ago, when I was working in the morning TV show, my strongest memory from the writers’ desk is of a very sad Orchid with absolutely no flowers, looking like a dry brown stick in a pot. I don’t actually remember this Orchid ever having flowers. Sure, it was flowering, maybe when… Continue reading
