Wearing Handmade Wednesday: A cover for my KitchenAid!

Hey everyone!

How's Wednesday going? Mine started a bit on the not so good side, but nothing that a paracetamol and some extra sleep couldn't deal with!

Today we're back with Wearing Handmade Wednesday, and this time is an awesome collaboration of two very talented ladies: Jamie of Warning Label Creations and Kylie of Fabulosly Fierce!

I wanted a cover for my KA, and I didn't want any of the old boring ones I'd already seen, so I decided to ask Jamie and see if she wanted to attempt making me a custom one, including some custom embroidery that Kylie would do, and it worked great! Embroidery panels on the side and cupcakes fabric, it's absolutely perfect!

It's practical, decorative and cute, and my Miss Marple KA couldn't be happier with her cover!

Wearing Handmade Wednesday: Fabulously Fierce and my Kitchen Aid!

Hello everyone! I'm finally returning with a Wearing Handmade Wednesday entry this week!

As you might already know, I got an awesome purple KA for Reyes, and soon after I opened it, I got a package from Kylie from Fabulously Fierce with a new awesome embroidered apron (that I will show off properly along with another super cute apron from her when I get my new camera remote) and a special white kitchen towel embroidered with a tower of cupcakes!

You might be wondering what is the KA doing covered with said kitchen towel? Well, when making buttercream, the cover that comes with the KA is no use to avoid getting the whole freaking kitchen (and yourself) covered with icing sugar, and after seeing Alma from Alma's Cupcakes use a kitchen towel that way to avoid the icing sugar storm, I knew it was an idea to add a cute touch, and that a white towel with some cute embroidery was a must!

Don't those cupcakes look absolutely delish? Aside from keeping my kitchen safe from the icing sugar storm (already tested yesterday while making Mimosa cupcakes, recipe next Monday here!) they kinda inspire me to keep on making more!

Feature Friday: Fabulously Fierce Home Decor!

It is Friday, and this time I am as happy as the rest of the office hours people, cause I have the weekend off!


Today I'm gonna be featuring a crafter & shop that I've featured more than once in my blog, Kylie from Fabulously Fierce & Willow Goose, and this time it'll be to share with you something she has recently added to her Home Decor shop, embroidered towels!


After recently purchasing an embroidery machine, she started adding this amazing bath & kitchen towels to her Etsy shop, so even if it's gonna be a while till I'll have a place to call my own where I'll need them, I decided to grab a couple sets of each type!


Kylie hold onto them and only shipped them so they'd arrive once I was back from my vacation, and so, they arrived today! I was so excited that before stashing them safely to wait for when they'll be needed for my own place, I took some pics of them so I could show them off!


I got a set of bath towels with Edgar Allan Poe & the Raven embroidered that are absolutely awesome! Since the towels are white, they'd look great with any bathroom, except a too white one.




And I also got a set of Alice In Wonderland themed kitchen towels, and they are also amazing! I love them, and they looked pretty awesome on my mum's kitchen, and since they have a neutral colour, they'd also match any kitchen colours!






Right now Kylie doesn't have these embroidery designs up for sale in the shop, but she has another Alice in Wonderland set, and some awesome Skully Chef kitchen towels that you really need to check out! ;)

MTCoffinz, more than just tutus!!

Monday is here, once again, and we embark in the week of Halloween! I hope you all guys have loads of fun plans, I work night shift on Halloween so no plans for me, but I'd still be getting into the Halloween spirit!


This blog entry is dedicated to one of the big names in the AOTC forums & handmade community is general, and to one of the most successful crafters I know, so much that her craft has taken over her life, and as such she is known as a cyborg, part seamstress, part sewing machine! The lady in question is none other than Jinx, the brains & talent behind MTCoffinz & MTCoffinz Underground, her two Etsy shops, though she also has her own website.


Jinx is best know for being the Queen of tulle & tutu skirts, but in her shops you can find not only all sorts, sizes & colours of tutus (micro, mini, formal, tea length... you name it, she has it!) but also embroidered scarves & fingerless gloves & headbands that are embroidered right there at the MTCoffinz studio with the most awesome designs you can imagine, but also hairfalls, veils, masks... well, to really know all is there, you need to go and take a good look at both shops!


I already own a super awesome mini tutu, cause right now I have no space whatsoever in my wardrobe for a bigger tutu, but I have plans, oh yes, I do have plans... but that's all I have to say for now. Shush! ;)




Recently Jinx added a bunch of new embroidered scarves to her MTCoffinz Underground shop and when I saw the Nurse Skull Crossbones design, I just had to get it!






It's super cool, and I'm sure I'm gonna be the envy of all my co-workers once the weather gets cold enough for scarves! And the scarf itself is made of black alpine fleece, so warm & soft! I'm surely packing it for my trip to India next month!

And yes, those are a pair of Zen & Coffee gloves!

Take a lot at both shops, you're sure to find something(s) you'll love!
