Handmade trinket dish Abstract home decor Glass ring dish Tea light holder

My latest passion involves crafting fused glass trinket dishes and tea light holders. They provide the perfect opportunity to experiment with new techniques without the risk of wasting too much glass in case of any mishaps. Allow me to share my latest creation with you.

In this piece, I combined Bullseye's Petrified Wood with Robin's Egg Blue glass. Together, these two colors produced an astonishing chemical reaction that I had heard a lot about and couldn't resist trying for myself. The melding of Bullseye's Petrified Wood, known for its rich, earthy tones reminiscent of ancient wood turned to stone, with the delicate and soothing hue of Robin's Egg Blue, resulted in a captivating interplay of colors.

The heat of the kiln brought these elements together, giving rise to a mesmerizing dance of swirls and patterns on the surface of the glass. The outcome turned my humble trinket dish into a true work of art, capturing the essence of nature's wonders in a compact form.

DIY Christmas Ornament Tree - how to instructions tabletop centerpiece

The Christmas is almost here and we have all the decorations in place. This year me and my little princess decided to make an Ornament Christmas Tree. I’ve seen these kinds of trees surfing the Internet and thought it would be a perfect project to make together with my daughter :)

Supplies: A mix of round Christmas ball ornaments in at least 4 different sizes, knitting needle, ribbon spool, pieces of craft cotton or Styrofoam. 


2. Thread the knitting needle up through the bottom of the spool. If the spool has a large hole – you can stuff it with pieces of cotton or Styrofoam to make sure the needle stays straight.


3. String largest Christmas ball ornaments onto the needle, slipping the metal loops on the balls over the point of the needle. Continue with smaller sizes until you are satisfied with the end result.


3. I removed the metal ring from the top ornament and hid the tip of the needle by placing the ornament upside down over the tip.



I love absolutely love the finished tree, it is so festive and pretty and it was so easy to make!

DIY autumn home decor Falling Leaves tutorial - how to make a fall hanging

The fall has left us already and winter has not taken a real grip on south Sweden just yet. All leaves are gone and it is wet and cold outside. I miss fall colors, so me and my daughter decided to preserve some of the autumn leaves that we collected and make a pretty window hanging with them. We used maple leaves because they come in the whole range of autumnal colors, from golden yellow to burgundy red and me and my little princess really love the shape of these pretty leaves :)

So here is a fun DIY project with fall leaves to remember the Autumn.

Supplies: colorful leaves, candle wax or beeswax, double boiler, monofilament, clothespins


1. Slowly melt candle wax or beeswax over a double boiler; never allow wax to boil. Dip leaves in wax one at a time, holding by stem. Gently shake off excess wax. I used candle wax in this project.


2. Hang leaves on clothespins to dry. Some may be dipped again, depending on desired look; let dry between coatings. I used an old newspaper underneath the leaves to avoid wax stains on the floor.  


3. Hang finished leaves from lengths of monofilament.


I love how this project turned out. The leaves look like they've been frozen in time while falling down from the tree. And it gives us a chance to enjoy fall just a little bit longer! Next weekend it is time to start decorating before Christmas here in Sweden. I'm thinking of maybe making a Christmas decoration out of these leaves so stay tuned :)
