Spring blog designs

I can't believe it's almost Easter... I know, we still have a month before it comes, but since I am preparing a big event, a Handmade Fair wich will last 12 days, from 10 of April to 23 of April, I am starting to feel a sort of panic... I have only 18 days left and I still have a million things to do..Not to mention that I am barely half stock quantity...

But, Spring is here, so I changed again my blog background.. And sailing through internet, I found the most beautiful, gorgeous, romantic, vintage and flowerish (is that a word?!) designs and graphics ever. I reccomend you all pay a visit on Keren's blog on Free Pretty Things For You and you'll be amased. Some of you might know her from Megan's blog Shabby Blogs.

Nu pot sa cred ca este aproape Pastele... Stiu, mai avem inca o luna pana cand soseste, dar intrucat ma pregatesc de un mare eveniment, un Targ Handmade care va tine din 10 aprilie pana pe 23 aprilie, incep sa ma panichez.. Mai am doar 18 zile la dispozitie si mai am un milion de lucruri de facut..Fara sa mentionez ca sunt de-abia la jumatatea stocului de produse...

Dar, primavara a sosit, asa ca am schimbat din nou fundalul blogului.. Si navigand pe internet, am gasit cele mai frumoase, minunate, romantice, vintage si florale modele si grafica. Va recomand sa-i faceti o vizita lui Keren pe Free Pretty Things For You si veti fi uimiti. Unii dintre voi poate o cunoasteti deja de pe blogul lui Megan Shabby Blogs.

This is only a very small part of what you'll find on her blog.

Asta este doar o foarte mica particica din ce puteti gasi pe blogul ei.

Doll bags

I had an interesting request from a sweet lady, mother of two beautiful girls. She loved my dolls and asked me if I could do for her daughters, two doll bags..And she let me to do them as well as I thought. It wasn't easy since I have never done this before and I had to figure all the technique detailes so the bag could be aesthetic, but in the same time could complish the role of being a bag...

I am proud to show you my doll bags, made with my own "project" (pattern)..

Am  primit o cerere interesanta de la o doamna draguta, mama a doua fetite frumoase. I-au placut papusile mele si m-a intrebat daca as putea sa-i fac pentru fetele ei, doua gentute papusa..Si m-a lasat sa le fac asa cum mi s-a parut mie potrivit. Nu a fost usor intrucat nu mai facusem asa ceva niciodata si a trebuit sa ma gandesc la toate detaliile tehnice in asa fel ca geanta sa poata fi estetica, dar in acelasi timp sa indeplineasca rolul de gentuta..

Sunt mandra sa va arat gentile mele papusa, facute dupa propriul "proiect" ( tipar)..

I think I've achived a pretty good result.. 

You can find them in my shop now, or if you want a personalised doll bag, write me on shabby.cry@gmail.com

And if you want to do them  for yourself, let me a comment and I will make a pdf pattern for who want to buy it.

Cred ca am obtinut un rezultat destul de bun..

le puteti gasi in magazinul meu acum, sau daca vreti o geanta papusa personalizata, scrieti-mi pe shabby.cry@gmail.com

Iar daca vreti sa le faceti dumneavoastra insiva, lasati-mi un comentariu si voi pregati un tipar pdf pentru cine va vrea sa il cumpere.

Billy Boy

Many people asked me if I was thinking to create a boy doll. And that made me realise that most of my items refers to woman in generally - girls, ladyes, womens...Maybe I should say all my items...

So a baby boy was born. And I named him Billy Boy.

Multe persoane m-au intrebat daca iau in considerare sa creez si un baietel. Si asta m-a facut sa realizez ca multe din produsele mele se refera la partea feminina in general - fetite, doamne, femei..Poate ar fi mai bine sa spun toate produsele mele... Asa ca s-a nascut un baietel. L-am numit Billy.

You cand find him in my shop or if you want a personalised item, write me on shabby.cry@gmail.com

Hugs, Cristina

Sweet dolls

Few weeks a go I told you about a SAL that I participate - Una coccola per sognare. And now, Sabrina from Monnalisa Dolls taught us how to sew a beautiful dress for our doll. But desides sewing  a few dresses, I sewed a sister for my doll and another doll slightly higher..

Acum cateva saptamani v-am spus despre SAL-ul la care particip - Una coccola per sognare. Iar acum, Sabrina de la Monnalisa Dolls ne-a invatat cum sa coasem rochite frumoase pentru papusica noastra. Dar pe langa a coase cateva rochii , am cusut o surioara pentru papusica mea si chiar o papusa putin mai mare..

Valentine's Day Fair

Sorry for my absence (again..), but I took part on another handmade fair here in my city, for Valentine's Day. So I had to do hard work the weeks before the Fair.

Imi cer scuze pentru absenta mea ( din nou..), dar am luat parte la un alt Targ Handmade aici in orasul meu, pentru ziua Sf. Valentin. Asa ca am avut mult de munca in saptamanile dinaintea targului.

What you can do with a vintage pillowcase

When you have an unmatched pillowcase, a bit old, but in bright, beautiful colours, what you can do with it? ..A bread basket, of course !

Well, I don't have the before picture, because once the idea hit me, I didn't thought of anything else. But I do have a "during" picture..,so you can sord of understand how the pillowcase it was....

Atunci cand ai o fata de perna desperecheata, putin cam veche , dar in culori frumoase, ce poti face cu ea? Un cos de paine, desigur !

Ei bine, nu am o fotografie cu "inainte de", pentru ca atunci cand m-a lovit ideea, nu m-am mai gandit la nimic altceva. dar o fotografie cu "in timp ce".., asa ca va cam puteti da seama cum arata fata de perna...

It had coloured stripes on the main side and a red-brick colour on the other side. All I had to do it was to open the 4 sides of the pillow case, add the yellow heart with green thread, and to create the basket...

(Here you can see my sewing corner...It's not a big space, but I cand handle it... And behind my Christmas Elf, is my grandmother portrait...It's a long story that I will tell you another time) 

Avea dungi colorate pe fata principala si o culoarea caramizie pe cealalta parte. Tot ceea ce a trebuit sa fac a fost sa deschid toate cele 4 laturi, sa adaug inima galbena tivita cu ata verde, si sa creez cosul...

(Aici puteti vedea si coltul meu de cusut...Nu este un spatiu mare, dar ma descurc...Iar in spatele spiridusului de Craciun, este portretul bunicii mele ...Este o poveste lunga pe care o voi spune altadata)

So here it is my bread basket / pillow case...

Si iata cosul meu de paine / fata de perna...

Hugs, Cristina
