Tarot of the day: Thursday.

THE TOWER:

Some days something blows up and there's nothing you can do. It has nothing to do with you, actually; you just happen to be there. While today will probably be uneventful, you may feel emotionally vulnerable and find yourself imaging one worst case scenario after another. Consider these imaginings as drills or dress rehearsals and don't let any of this unnerve you. You're fine and will be fine no matter what.

DIY Leather Steampunk inspired Corset-Belt tutorial.

A couple of weeks ago, the weather in Norway was super hot and summery, which is something that has not happened in the last four years. Everyone (except me) was happy for all the sun and heat out there... People were enjoying the weather, walking around in bikinis... sun bathing on the grass in the middle of downtown... the pubs and restaurants were full, the city was once again ALIVE after the long dark winter.  But as soon as people barely started getting used to the heat that a cold wave hit the coutry, first starting with cold northern winds... but it was not cold enough to go back to winter clothing. It's the most annoying type of weather when you don't really know what to wear! If you dress up in summer clothes, you'd freeze, if you dress up in winter clothes, you'd suffocate! So, to keep a long story short, I tried to find a healthy balance by making myself a corset made of leather.  Why, you may ask? Well my tummy and waist area have always been a wea

Making Viking Belt bags - the old way...

Image
This summer, I will be participating in Viking markets around Norway, so I had to prepare many items, as authentic as possible, to be able to display and sell them at the markets. I started making leather crafts without having any prior experience in leather work, I just gave it a try a few years ago, and it worked! Now, I just learn as I go, and I believe I am doing quite well, and people who see and buy my work keep telling me so... which is the encouragement I need to keep improving and doing new things, expanding my horizons, in a way. A while ago, I started making viking belt bags again. I had already made a few... but working alone, when you think you have done so much... you look at the number of hours used, and then you take a look at the number of items produced... and you see that it's never enough! Each pouch can take from 3 to 18 hours of work, depending on the size, the dying technique, treating/softening the leather, the engraving and the sewing. It all s

The law is here to defend liars!

All my life, sharing details of my life has been an issue for me. I was always the listener, the problem solver for everyone else but myself. People always saw me as the smart girl with the good sense of humor, that always finds a way to laugh even in the darkest times. Others saw me as mysterious and dark... and did not like it. I am a very complex person. I am not easy to get to know... as anyone else, I can easily be judged for what I am or am not.  When I was younger, prejudice bothered me a lot... Nowadays, I let it slide. I let people say whatever makes them feel good about themselves... and I don't bother correct them nor prove myself to anyone. It's too much energy wasted on nothing productive. I don't aim to please... I aim to change a few things... small things... remind people of what really matters in life. I don't care about wealth, cars, houses, designer clothing and all that jazz... All I care about is being a human being, in full. Not forgetting fe
