Sunshine Yellow Garden Pinks Necklace - Finally in Store

I just finished making the Sunshine Yellow Garden Pinks Necklace, and it's in the shop! :D

Stand out in summer - buy one of these!

Want An Offer You Can't Resist?

..Want a Wardrobe with a Twist?

Yes, I meant that literally and metaphorically because I have just finished crocheting 3 brand new necklaces called "With a Twist"!

They have a twist to them as they're different and they physically twist!

In the newest H&M magazine, they say that your wardrobe should be more daring. People are too afraid to stand out and tend to express themselves by toning it down.

In addition, many of the clothes that are in style now, are crocheted or look crocheted at least.

What isn't a better way to:

- stand out
- look stylish
- wear something different
- be individual
- support handmade
- wear handmade
- wear what's in style now

...than wearing one of these new necklaces?

This first piece is black - the colour that never goes out of style. You'll be super stylish if you wear a black, crocheted, one of kind accessory to accentuate your bold side.

These fab pieces are crocheted using Egyptian cotton - you can really see how pretty the yarn is because it has a unique shine and glow. It's soft too!

This necklace is a rustic orangey gold. The camera can't capture it's true elegance, as it looks too orange with the flash on, but too bland with it off. I hope you like it!

Finally, here we have it in brown, and below you can really see how it twists - up close.

These three necklaces can be bought by clicking here for the black one, here for the rustic orange one and here for the brown one

for 130 NOK / $24 per piece or by commenting below.

Are you willing to take a chance?





I'll be linking this post up to Vintage Wanna Bee's Talent Tuesday linky party :)

There will be a give away soon, so you'll want to check back ;D

Blue Garden Pink BROOCH

I just uploaded a new product in my online store, a Blue Garden Pink BROOCH --

I made the flower using cotton fabric and glue. It has felt backing with a pin.

It really spruces up an outfit, but is elegant and quite discrete at the same time.

A true Gentle Flower.
