Hi there :) I'm a primary school teacher, 29 years old, living in Switzerland. I live with my boyfriend, three cats and a cute hamster. Since I was a child, I've loved things crafty and creative.

By the way, I'm a newbie and I'm looking very forward to meet other crafty people all over the world! :)

I really do love all things handmade! In my free time, I try to create crafty things as often as possible.

Especially I like...

...amigurumi: Some time ago I stumbled upon those cute little creatures made of yarn on the internet. It was clear to me that I had to start training my skills in crocheting to create amigurumis myself. Meanwhile I try out other chrocheting techniques (like f.e. Granny Squares) as well.

... drawing: oh well... even though I still have to improve a lot, I just love doing it! It's so much fun!

... photography: Since many years I like to take pictures of beautiful things in the world.

... webdesign: This is a subject totally new to me. But I'd really like to acquire knowledge about this.

... journaling: Also something new to me, but I absolutely want to do this!

I'm always curious to try out new techniques!!
