Simply A Match

I have just finished a new shawl. Oh, not a very big surprise since I almost do that every week...

I do not often knit in purple but the colors I found are so lovely and I could not resist. I do not have a good photo of the shawl yet. Bad photo weather - I will post when I manage to get out for a photo shoot.

But I can show you how a very nice match between yarn and polymer clay were made lately.

I had this polymer clay bracelet made a while ago. It was too small but I found a bird bead and another bead to go with it so I gave it new life.

The word "ptaki" means bird in polish.

You can have a look at a previous bracelet with polymer clay birds stamped with the word bird in different languages here.

Amongst my many sea urchin pendants I found a purple one. And it was a match made by my hands.

I find great joy in using both my jewelry and my knitted garments together.

They match in their own way and have their own story.

I often find that using ones creativity is to tell stories about life, ourselves or of the beauty you can see in someones eyes. Creativity is the song performed by our souls. Do you agree??

  2. Beautiful colours (I love purple).
    Yes, I think creativity lets us put things into the world that cannot be said in words.

  3. Purple is definitely my favorite color in all of its shades and glory! In fact, I am wearing a purple shirt as I type this note. These creations all have such beauty and texture, and I can see your soul is singing. As for me...nothing gives me greater joy than to know that my creations are enjoyed by others, too. Have a wonderful day, my lovely friend!

  7. Der er lilla og så er der lilla. Denne her er rigtig lækker, men nu vi er ved fugle og sjaler hver uge: Var der ikke noget med et fuglesjal?

    1. Tak Dorte!!! Åh nej, det fuglesjal er min kæmpestore dårlige samvittighed. Så tungt at komme godt i gang med når man ikke bare kan slæbe det med i sofaen... Eller måske jeg skal finde nogle andre og bedre undskyldninger.....

  8. Synes sjalet hadde en nydelig farve! Og må jo si at det hadde smykkene dine også! Men så er jeg jo litt svak for akkurat den farven da også :)

    Ønsker deg en riktig god helg!

  9. Dette var rett og slett nydelig! Fint innlegg, vakkert sjal, vakre smykker. Det er så artig å se når noen har sin helt egen stil - og ikke lager det samme som alle andre.
    Ha en riktig fin søndag!
