Fashion to interior: Crocheted bliss

The similarity was too obvious to be ignored, so I had to share my finds. Granny chic crocheted blanket found its place in fashion industry in the form of a cozy dress, warm and so much fun! I’ve seen the blanket itself long time ago, so a this-and-that moment hit me the second I saw the dress, looks like the crocheted bliss works in fashion just as good as it does in decorating :)

Etsy: Emma Lamb

Let’s do some virtual shopping now, shall we? I’m taking you now to Edinburgh, UK to visit a lovely shop full of handmade crocheted, knitted, embroidered vintage accessories, such as granny rugs, cushions, pincushions, garlands and more! Oh, please meet the owner of this sweet shop, Emma Lamb! She’s an avid lover of two things: vintage & retro style and crochet, knit, embroidery, so she had the fabulous idea of combining her passions and now she’s doing what she likes the most and selling them or better said sharing them with the other people. Besides her shop, Emma can be found on her blog, Flickr and Pinterest. Speaking of Pinterest: when preparing my pinboard about what home means to me (remember that I’m a part of Pin it forward, right?) I could fill my board only with the cozy items from Emma’s shop, they look so comfortable and so home-y! Now let’s take a look at the beautiful items from Emma’s shop:

Serbian Made: Cut, Nela, cut

Hello, lovelies and happy Monday! Although when looking through the window I wouldn’t say it’s very happy, it’s raining, cold and feels like fall! And it’s been like this last two days! On the bright side of this day, it’s Serbian Monday today, which already became a tradition. My today’s favorite find is a wonderful lady who has amazing cutting skills and if I wouldn’t know she did it herself, I’d never believe this is possible. So people, please meet Nela from Cut, Nela, cut and that’s what she says: ” I am a home-staying mom of  an 8 years-old boy and a freelance translator for Spanish language, I am also passionate crafter. While ago I discovered paper cutting and I believe that I found my magical cure for everyday stress. It’s a tranquilizer  that brings me back to life and fulfills my need to express myself.”. I really hope you’ll like what I found for you today, because seriously, Nela’s work is very impressing and new to me, which makes me admire her even more! But besides paper cutting, Nela is doing crochet and you should see those sweet things she’s creating, they’re gorgeous! Thank you, Nela, for sharing your work with us!

P.S. Please visit her blog and Flickr for more eye-candy!
