Hello people,

As you may know, I'm very much into polymer clay, I love to make cute jewelry with it.
So for inspiration I go on Pinterest or other sites and I find some inspiration. It's mainly stuff made by other people or tutorials. 

Obviously I don't just copy other peoples' stuff, I try to give it my own twist. That's why it's called inspiration.
So I thought I'd share some of my inspiration with you, and in the future I might just do a tutorial myself.




Some pieces are of real cakes, fondant or not-polymer clay items because they're basically the same thing.

Anyway be prepared for inspiration or just general cuteness! Click the pictures for the link.

Do you remember the first Harry Potter movie?
Then you must remember these adorable flying keys.
The linked site doesn't provide a tutorial but you basically find old keys and print some wings to stick to them.

Hello people,

This is another roundup of DIY's.
I got most of them via pinterest, and I thought that they were amazing and needed to be shared with you!

My motto: Never throw something away before taking a good second look at it.
Okay, I may have a thousand mottos, but this is an important one!

Looking through these DIY's I have found so much inspiration of what to do with old t-shirts

Let's have a look at what I found:

I love the style of this top, I've tried making one myself, but it's a little too short (Could always be nice in summer, though) I'm definitely going to make some more!

Nice way to upcycle an old tee to a pretty one-shoulder tank.

Hello world!

For this DIY roundup I've decided to choose shoes!
I've gathered all the shoe tutorials I could find. Most are found on Pinterest and Craftgawker.
Click the image to go to the respective tutorial. 



Sneakers

Heels
Flats:
 Others
For some shoes I couldn't find a specific catergory, so I made an 'other' category.
Like brogues, sandals and accesoires or refashioning.
