Find stuff:
Welcome!
Hey there- welcome to my blog! This is the space where I share all things crafty, handmade and wonderful that I find around-and-about in my life. I live in a tiny apartment (hence my blogs name) on a student budget, so I love to find new and creative ways to make things without spending a fortune on fabric and threads. I love making new things with my own hands- whether they're for presents or our apartment...I hope you all enjoy hearing about them. I would love to hear your thoughts! Please comment on any of the posts, stories or pictures as you'd like, but please keep in mind that I will remove content at my own discretion if it is unproductive or doesn't pertain to the topic under discussion. Thanks for coming and checking out my site! Jen-

Knickers!
I made my first knickers the other day (!!) It was quite an exciting moment for me! Despite making them WAY too big, they turned out really well 🙂 The sides are folded under a solid 5 centimetres on either … Continue reading

This month’s challenge in the stashbusting sewalong from Cation Designs was to sew for those you love! I’m pretty excited to share two projects I managed to get done this month, but sad because I wanted to make a self … Continue reading
I made a Washi Dress!
Check it out- I’ve been making things I can wear in public! Technically, although this doesn’t fit in with February’s Love challenge in the Stash-busting Sewalong, it was still stashbusting, so I’m totally claiming it! This is the Washi Dress, … Continue reading
