Lena Quist

If you haven't heard about Lena Quist, it's about time you do.

Lena sells all kinds of fabulous and outrageous clothing...which is right up my alley!
You can check out here Etsy shop and see all of her lovely creations, like these

Lace Up, Stay Ups

or these Lightning Leggings

and how about these studded and chain fringed shoulder pads
A lot of her stuff has glam rock style to it, and is definitely for those who aren't afraid to be a little grandiose.
For those of you who are fans of Kat Von D, she was recently spotted in a pair of Lena Quist silver cross leggings (which are available here).
Having the typical college-student budget, these are a little out of my price range, but if you're like me you can always save up, add them to your Etsy favorites for later, or just covet from afar. Either way, Lena is sure to be one of the next big brands in alternative fashion.
...and if you don't know, now you know.

First blog...here we go!

My name is Gabriella, I am a 19 years old, and I like to make things. All kind of things.
I draw, make collages, recycled/upcycled things, jewelry (I recently started working with resin and I fell in love with it immediately. But I also do bead work, hemp work, and lots of other things), etc. I'm into anything I use as a creative outlet.
(My next goal is to learn how to sew and knit/crochet.)

I'm making this blog in an effort not only to promote the things I make, but also D.I.Y/handmade crafts, clothes, jewelry, etc. in general.
In posts to come, I'm going to show you how to make all kind of really great, cute, cheap things.

I recently started selling items on Etsy. I've only had a few sales, but it's great to see people's interest and appreciation for the things in make.
