Rainbow At The End

Polymer clay bracelets to go with my new scarf.
My little grey adventure has ended in a rainbow. That is no surprise at all.

What started up as an inspiration from a blanket ended with a lot more than just that inspiration. I always start a project thinking I can manage not to take off.

I must admit, that seems impossible. If I can not dive into my stash and dig out some bright colors I might as well drop my project. It really makes me alive and kicking - or should I say knitting...

This was a relaxing and quick knit. I bought some grey yarn and found all the white in my stash.

 In spite of a lot of grey and white I ended up with a rainbow.

And how I love that. When everything is grey there is always some light and colors out there to notice.

And, some bracelets is of course important. Took out my polymer clay and made two bracelet with smaller disks than I use to.

Not a lot of white as it always get dirty wearing.

I just loved making all of this.

I found it easy and fun. And sometimes we just need to create without a lot of fuss.

  10. Bruken av farger er en av de tingene jeg virkelig liker ved arbeidene dine. Du er modig i fargebruken, og jeg gjentar meg selv når jeg sier at det gir energi. Både til den som bruker disse fargene, men også til omgivelsene. Takk for det. :)

  11. Såååå lekkert!
    Jeg elsker armbånda du har laget til.
    Kunne ønske jeg kledde grått, for fargene kommer så fint frem.
    Kanskje jeg kler det om noen år, da jeg har grått hår? Who knows?
