January 2021 on #Instagram


Wish you all a happy and healthy new year!

Starting 2021 with a puzzle: How does an octopus comes into the mountains? 🤔
😅 Had lots of fun with my boys in the snow yesterday!


Stable masks 😷
As masks will stay for a while part of our lives, I made some nice ones to wear in the stable when seeing my horse!
The three horse stamps I made several years ago and every time using them I think that a fourth one is missing. Maybe a bucking or rearing horse?

Galette des rois!
Traditional french cake for the twelfth day / three kings day / 6th January! Only I don't like the traditional marzipan filling and made a chocolate-almond-pear filling! 😋 very yummy (and rich)!
Only the pattern I cut in the covering layer didn't survived the baking. I wonder why!
If you want to see a perfect "galette des rois" have a look on my blog www.janelostinideas.blogspot.com in January 2016!

Yoga bag set 🧘‍♀️👜
I made this set already in November, but only now it is with his new owner. The high bag is for the mat and in the other there is much space for all other items one might need. Swipe to see the details! From a scrap I made a matching eye cushion for the relaxation phase.
Dear M. I hope the situation normalize soon and you can use it for many yoga sessions!

❄ Let it snow 🌨
The new frontstep decoration finished just in time for a great load of snow yesterday! (And now it is raining 😔)
You might remember the panel: it's the same I used for the outside Christmas decoration. I used the backside now and I replaced the stars on to by this two wooden snowman ☃️

Crochet circle vest! 🧶
Gypsy blue by Drops design.
The pattern is for a jacket so I need to add sleeves, but if I am lazy I could use it as a vest 😉
I started end of August and in the beginning the project grew so quickly, but with the diameter my motivation vanished as the progress was less visible 🙈
Let's hope the sleeves are fun again, then maybe I can wear the jacket still in this winter! 😊

Paper snowball ❄
On each half moon area is a different snowflake, the background is colored light blue and little dots with a silver metallic marker.
The "bridges" are stamped with different snowflake stamps.
I made this as an example for today's crafting class! I wonder what the kids balls will look like when I gave them all the materials and ask them to decorate it with snowflakes all over!
I used the blank template for paperballs from hattifant

🔺️+❄ Triangle snowflake stamp
I designed and carved this little rubber stamp last weekend!
There are so many possibilities to use an isosceles triangle! In this case you can stamp a circle with 6 triangles to get a snowflake or make an all over pattern or (my favourite) decorate 3D ornaments! I made a bunch of those for my recent winter decoration!
Inspiration by @regnitzflimmern already back in December!

Icicles ❄🥶
I carved a second stamp with a long pointed triangle form. In combination with the little triangle I made paper icicles!
All the ornaments I made plus some snowflakes are decorating now the lamp over our dining table!

Scratched ❄ on 📀
Am I a little snowflake obsessed this month? 🤔
This is an example for the crafting class. We found lots of old CDs when tidying up the basement during Christmas vacation. This is a great way to reuse them.
I mixed a drop of dish liquid in the black color: it makes the color easier to scratch of.
