Hello! It’s Réka, and I’m so excited to share a little tour of my craft space with you today. Beginning of this year I made a little investment and purchased a new desk and a shelf from IKEA. It was a really good choice and I fell in love with them.

Let’s see my desk. It is in our bedroom, opposite to the bed and the reason is why it is here, because that is the place of TV where it sits but when we finish the renewal in the other bedroom, it will be go to there with the bed and I can start to decorate the wall and the whole room finally. I can`t wait it, so exciting to create a new world in the house, which is only my own.

So far only one thing has gone to the wall yet which is my dream catcher and below there is my Silhouette Cameo on the desk. I was waiting a lot for my Cameo and when I look at the dream catcher and its message „Follow your dream” it always inspiration for me that I am able to reach everything what I want, sometimes it takes so long but it is worth to wait. Believe me.

When I choose my desk I knew these thing must be put on it, so I decided to buy the bigger one and beside I still have a lot of space to create. However sometimes I start to work on the desk and at the end just finish it on the floor.

I love the drawers of the desk. They are so big and able to hide a lot of thing. I often use boxes or baskets to organize the items by category, for example one for enamels or one for flowers. This is a proven method to keep tidy easy.

Between the drawers there is my printer which is one of my favorite tool I often use.

The other one of my favorite thing is the shelve for my craft stuff.

I just decorate it as I want, how mood I am. It is a little gallery. It also contains a lot of boxes and baskets, my cute things and layouts, some old creative books.

I also love the lights and it was the first thing which went to the shelf.

My mother always says If everything has an own place after that I can keep tidy everywhere. I always remember her words.

This is it… “my studio”. I hope you enjoy this post! Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day! Réka

Field Notes – Fun in the sun

Hello! Here Réka is today with you, and I have traveler’s notebook spreads to share, featuring the gorgeous ‘POOL PARTY’ Traveler’s Notebook Kit!

When I got my Kit I thought a lot how to use the insert, maybe to organize my days as a planner or to write my favorite recipe on it but finally I have decided that I will be document our summer stories.

The ‘Fun in the sun’ cute file is perfect for every summer stories so I have cut it out of the pink paper with arrows pattern from Pretty Little Studio: Ain’t Life Grand – 4 x 6 Paper collection and adhered them onto my page. After I have used my favorite pink thread and I have embroidered them around. When you use a thin paper for the embroidery base like this you need to be careful, don’t let the paper tear and if you don’t push hard the needle, you can get lazier stitch as me now and yes, I really love it.

Next, the flowers, which were fussy cut out of a Pretty Little Studio: Ain’t Life Grand – 4 x 6 flowers pattern Paper and I have made some clusters on my pages. I love these flowers and every piece is hoard.

Some mists, words, the gorgeous pink camera ephemera and the cute ‘Ice cream’ clip went on my spread. You can find more clips in the shop here and remember you can use the code SHOP to get 30% off your total purchase.

This page is the summary page so I have printed the title of the first story on the vellum paper and adhered on it. I will fill in the blank page continuously with the next stories` titles which we will be collecting this summer.

Now, let’s see the next page.

For the left side I added my photo which was layered some paper and on the other side I have used the Hello card from the Pretty Little Studio: Ain’t Life Grand – 3 x 4 Cards collection. I have also used some beautiful flowers and the words stickers and the always title, which arrived with the kit.

Behind the Hello card I have put one tag from the June printable collection and I have written the funny story on it. I have attached with a white thread and made a little bow from it. Some mists and some enamels were the finishing touches to complete my spread.

I hope you enjoy my traveler’s notebook spreads and collect the summer stories. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful crafty day! Réka

Clique Agenda - Happy days with hot-air balloon

Hello Everyone! Here is Réka and this month I am using the cute Traveler’s Notebook Kit of July for my projects.

Today, I’m sharing my weekly planner spread but before I show it I’ll bring a very quick DIY project.

This idea came from the striped PL card from Pretty Little Studio: Ain’t Life Grand – 3 x 4 Cards, Hello Today. When I saw this pack at first time I thought this was a notepad but after a few second I realised what it was exactly. After I’ve printed the Main Kits’ exclusive printable of July and my eyes stuck on the cute striped with hearts border’s PL card and I knew it would be the base of the notepad. I’ve printed more copies, then I’ve stitched them together and finally I’ve glued them onto the Pretty Little Studio: Ain’t Life Grand – Word Stickers’ wrapping paper. Yes, I love using these papers and the Pretty Little Studio’s wrapping is always perfect for this. Then I’ve decorated it with the word of ‘TODAY’, and the ‘YOU’RE AWESOME’ stickers. And then, the cute hearts, of course, which I’ve been fussy cut from the other printable card. The last step was to put it on a piece of white cardstock.

The back side I’ve decorated with the Hello sunshine printable card which I’ve printed it on the vellum paper and I’ve fixed it with my sewing machine and I’ve also decorated it a little bit and I’ve punched it, that I could put it in my planner. Finally, I’ve got a bookmark and a notepad at the same time, two in one. I really love the result.

Now let’s see my weekly planner spread. I’ve used the Travelers Notebook Kits’ printable of June for the days and the numbers which I’ve stamped from my one stash. Next, the clouds, which were fussy cut out of a Pretty Little Studio: Ain’t Life Grand – 4 x 6 Paper and I’ve made some cluster on my pages. I ’ve also added some mint mist, words stickers and the little hearts. If there were clouds, the hot-air balloon cannot be missing. I’ve used the hot-air balloon cut file as the pattern and I have stitched this cute pink one, which brings smile in my day.

Here are some close-ups.
