In uni we had this class where we had to design all sorts of buildings and at the evaluation not only the design itself mattered but also the way we presented it with models and drawings. To me designing the building and having to think about the structures, sizes, functions and rooms was just an excuse to be able to draw the ready thing at the end.
Last time when I visited my parents, I found my beloved bead loom and decided to take it home with me and create some amazing stuff again. I had this idea to make a cool, tribal-looking bracelet first so I started to look up patterns on the internet and found this one that was exactly the type of pattern I had in mind. I went to a few different diy stores to pick up the items I needed: loads of different beads, threads, bead needles, some wide textile bands to cover the backside at the end and some snap fasteners.
I designed a gift box for a client a few months ago. When I showed the final images to one of my friends, she was super fond of the pattern and said she would love to have a phone case like that.
As Christmas was coming up, I made a mental note and soon after created this pattern for her that was based on that gift box design but with a few modifications.
Fairy shoes are a sweet creation for those days when one feels a bit creative and wants to indulge.
