I have one new garment to show you, but I have no time to take pictures on it since I'm working 9-5 every weekday and am to tired when I come home. So an old dress will have to serve instead. I used Elaine's wonderful coffee date dress-pattern as a base, but changed it a bit. I really like the exposed zipper detail!
And by the way, when I looked at these pictures I realised that the only way you could possibly guess that I once played soccer, is to look at my calfs. Haha.
A drawing I made a while ago with promarker felt pens. I definitely recomend promarkers to everybody who likes to draw, they're lovely! The only disadvantage is that they run out very quickly.
I just made a very summerish bracelet. I took the flowers from two candle-rings I bought 2-hand. The pearls inside the flowers are 2-hand too, so it was a very cheap bracelet. I like that!
I call this skirt "the raspberry skirt" because its color is very similar to raspberries. And because I like raspberries. My favorite thing about this (except the color) is the pockets with their lace trim.
I got soo inspired yesterday when I found this picture, so I made a similar necklace but changed it a bit to make it my own. It was actually easier than I thought! I used two different kinds of pearls because I didn't have enough of just one kind, but I like the effect.Earlier today I photographed some of the jewellery I've made, so it will come more of that later. And clothes ofc!
About a year ago, my cousin got married. I made this dress the day before the wedding was held, it's always good to start in good time! Well, at least I finished it in time and wore it at the wedding. And I got many compliments on it, it felt good!
Isn't the garden lovely?! I thank my mother for that nice background!
I got the name labels for the clothes I sew today! I've already started sewing it in to a few garments and it feels so proffessional, haha.
Ranzin is a shorter version of rantzien that's a part of my surname. My full surname is Horn af Rantzien, but most of the time I only use Horn because it's easier. Sooo, that's the very interesting explanation of my label.
Sneak peaks of one of my projects I'm working on right now, it's a small top with a chiffon frill. Now I just have to put on some buttons and buttonholes and then it's ready. I think I will sew a pair of high-waisted shorts to go with this short top, it could be cool.
Sooo, welcome to my blog. And I don't really know what to say here...
Okay, I'll make a very short presentation of myself and the blog.
My name is Horn. Lisa Horn. I'm 17 years old and I study fashion design in high school. I live in Sweden and I'm a pretty geeky person, instead of going out to parties and stuff like that, I prefer sitting at home with my sewing machine. I like creating stuff, I design and sew clothes, make jewellery, draw pictures and, well.. I just love DIY.
And that's pretty much what this blog is going to contain I suppose. And a lot of inspiration.
