Christmas is over :(

It's 5 day after christmas! Time flies really fast isn't it?

Well that's okay if christmas is over because we will have it again next year right? :)
So here it is I am going to share you my christmas project : stickers and scarf!
My knitting scarf took about one a half years to make. It took a really long time for me as I only did it during my holiday at home ( I didn't bring my knit to Bandung because I don't think I will have enough time for that) :P I am super happy with the result! yay.. :)

 How to make stickers:
1. Draw on any paper. If you are using watercolor, then water color paper is a better option.
2. Scan your drawings
3. Print it on sticker paper. There are many kinds of sticker paper, for my stickers I choose the ordinary one (just like a regular paper on surface). However you can choose if you want to print it on transparent sticker paper.
4. Cut it!
5. It's done

Now you can share your stickers to your lovely friends and family!


 
This is the scarf that I told you! I made this scarf from 2 different yarns. The first one is from Martha Stewart and the second I forgot the name (oops). When the first yarn was over, I was going to buy the same yarn, however the didn't have it on the stock so I had to purchase another yarn. Then I took that super nice yarns with that fabulous looking color of lavender, purple, shocking pink and baby pink in one yarn! How amazing is that huh? :) 

And this one necklace I made from a really beautiful yarn I got from my BFF's grandma. How come? It just happened. Haha!  One day I brought my pink knit scarf to my BFF's home and I met her grandma. She loves knitting and she knits way soooo much better than me. So she gave me the yarn and 2 sticks and one stopper. (She is super nice. I couldn't even ask for more)

After I finished my pink knit scarf, I was so excited to make a new one. I took the yarn and I tried to knit it, but I failed. It was too difficult because there are so many strings which confused me a lot. Rather than I cut it or undo it, I decided to make a necklace out of it and it turns out nicely! I didn't have a necklace chains at a time and I think black ribbon is ok for a short time. I am definetely looking for a chains now :)
