Flez-art - Shop review

I Made myself an early christmas Gift and did some Bat shopping.

This time i bought at the Dawanda Shop Flez-art.de i mentioned bevore at my christmas baking post. Its a Shop from Berlin, Germany. And it is owned by a woman called Petra. 

There are a lot of bat styled items. It is all made with lot of love, what you defenitely can see and feel.
The Best thing of the shop: 5% of your buying is given to an bat saving organisation.
Lets go to what i have bought.
I ordered last thuesday and everything arrived Saturday. So this was quite fast.

And here is what i bought:

My items are:

The bat wing mug: The best mug i own now

A bat shaped warming bottle: never feel cold again

A leather hair acessoire: follow me

And a Wolf cookie cutter: the way to the wolf

Everything has an very good quality and looks like it will last a very long time. My coffee never tasted better than drinking it out of the bat wing mug.

A thing i got earlyer by an Facebook giveaway flez-art.de did, i won the First price. This cute little bat you can also get at her shop. This little cutie is really nice and always around me. At the Moment she is hanging around my Tea shelf.

Here you can get your own: the little flezmaus and the best: you can decide what colour your Bat is going to have. 

So of you are looking out for something spezial and made-with-love bat item, go to flez-art.de. Even you are doing some good thing by the 5% given to the bat saving organisation.

Next week i will show you a new DIY. 

Have fun shopping and saving the bats

Christmas bakery the gothy way

As I told the last time, I will show you some goth Christmas bakery.

I love cookies. All around the year and spezially at christmas time. But with christmas cookies it is the same as the dekorations. Nothing really gothic looking. So lets style them up.

during the last years i got several cookie cutters which look gothy. I am haveing three diferent Bat cutters and a Skull. And it is really great. Make the dough of your choice, i choose choclate for the Bats and Butter-cookies for the skull. So it all has the color thats normal to it.
When you dont have cookie cutters like this, you can get Bats, skulls and other really gothy ones at flez-art.de. Etsy is also a great place to get something different to the normal ones.

And if you dont want to buy some of this, you can decorate normal cookie shapes a bit more gothic. So how about makeing round cookies and dekorate them with white iceing and chocolate like Jack Skellington Faces? Or simply cover with really dark choclate so that they look black.
Another Idea is makeing gingerbread man, cover with dark choclate and paint a skeleton on it with white iceing.
I also found some skull sugar sprinkles to dekorate the cookies. It was Halloween time when i bought them.
Last but not least, poisoned apple cookies. Easy cookie dough, dekoratet with red and black iceing.
Or make Cinnamon Stars and paint a Pentagram on them.
Maby cutting out layered Cookies in Coffin shape? There are so much you can do. Just get creative.

And here you go with some really gothy and spooky christmas cookies.
finally, mine:

And as an litte extra, the Queen herself by rolling out the Gingerbread dough at her best friends kitchen:

So now enjoy your bakery and Cooky dekoration. And let me know if you are haveing another idea on how to make the christmas bakery more Goth.

DIY: Ideas on a spooky Christmas

Halloween is over now and the holiday season is right around the corner. Everyone ist doing holiday dekoration and there is christmas stuff every where you look. Bright and shiny Christmas ornaments, sparkling Lights and cheesy red and green Santa Claus Stuff.

So I thought it is time to bring the nightmare before Christmas to live and let this holiday season have a little toutch of never ending Hallowenn. Silent time? Lets get loud!

The easiest way to add a little goth touch to it, is haveing a black christmas tree. They can be easily found at the internet. The other way are black christmas ornaments. Last year black ornaments were really popular at Bavaria.  And they are moste time really cheap an easy to find. When you dont find them to buy, they are easy to make. Buy some really cheap ones and paint them black. 

But you can go way more creative. There are so many Ideas on the internet what you can make. 

Here are my Ideas:

- cut out Bat or Skull ornaments from Cardboard or made from modelling clay

- Black Santa Socks. (made out of felt, no hemming needed)

- Black Santa Hats

- A black Angel Christmas Tree Topper

- Black Candles and Bows at the wreath.

My personal holiday decoration this year is really minimal because i am moving during the holidays. So there will only be a gothy christmas door wreath this year.

I took a cheap styrofoam wreath from the craft store and covered it with grey knitting material. I used this because i can re-decorate it for every season.

The decoration are black ribbon, silver snow star jewelry and a black bow. The Bells i like very much. these are my personal "Hells Bells". It is nothing really special, but it is definitely diferent to the ones you can buy.

Now get everyone a black Santa Hat, listen to one of the gothy or heavy metal Christmas songs and enjoy a spooky holiday season.

Next time i will show you my gothy christmas bakery.

best wishes,

Shopping: WGT 2016

The WGT is now about 4 weeks over. And i finally managed to take pictures of all things i bought at the Festival.

This jear war the first time i went to the WGT Festival. And it was amazing. I spend a lot of money on new things. And now i want to show them to you

The Skirt

A pouffy princessy big skirt in black and purple with lots of tulle and cute little bows. Its a Sinister Skirt (my third one now)

The Corset

A Corset from Burlesca, the same purple as the skirt. Its got plastic bones and so it is very confty for wearing every day.

The Jacket

A steampunk Jacket, i have already worn at the victorian picnic, from Phaze. It was really strange to wear that much brown.

The Bracelet

At the "Heidnischen Dorf" i found a really cute bat bracelet. And my boyfriend decided that i really need this. And now i wear this nearly every weekend. 

The Tophat

I decided that i badly need a Tophat. And at the Aderlass Store i found the one i looked for. And i am wearing it every time i can. 

The dress

finally i got a Hell Bunny dress with all over bat print. Its really great to wear and super cute. I think i need a petticoat going with this.

I am already saveing money for the next year. And maby the next time i do a basic shopping posting.

What are your favourite WGT buyings?

Daily Planner + free download

Its been a long time since the last post. Again. I didnt manage to post as regularily as i wannted to. 

So i need to organize my days a lot better. And how could you do this the easyest way? By getting a daily planner!

Because there was no planner on sale what suits me with the classification of the days, i took a look at pinterest and found one that i liked. It is to download and print for free, great thing. The problem is: its bright and colorfull and very ungothy, so i would not use it.

Here is the link to it: Daily Planner German and English

and another one that i liked a lot: daily planner german

So i decided to make one my own, bought a blank journal and started to design pages at my PC. And when finishing the first page i realized that there is no need of printable pages when already haveing a journal.
So there was the next thought. Buying a binder for the printables or design the pages of the journal? I decided to buy a binder. Why? It is a lot easyer and it was a lot work creating the printable because i am not really good at working with a computer.

I will start useing my new journal at the 1st of June. (Today) In my opinion it is a good date to start something new. half the year is over so its time to take a look back at new years resolutions. How far did you came up with them? Did you finish one already? (like loosing weight, reading a book or so) 

And maybe it is time to get on some new ones. Or update the old ones. 

Back to the planner. Here is the pags i've made. Please feel free to download and print for your personal use. 

the picute is linked to the pdf

From now on i hope i could manage to do regular blog postings and do not stop after two successful weeks. 

How do you manage to stay on plan? And how are you planning out your day/week?

Bat wishes and have a nice day,

DIY: quick Jewelry Box

Some time ago i've been looking around pinterest on some diy ideas. And i came up with:

I need a jewelry box to hold my Piercings.

There are so many great ideas on makeing your own personalised jewelry boxes. Or boxes to hold other stuff. 

heres the link to it

This one i fell totaly in love with. this miniature dresser is so awesome! Unfortunately it is already sold. (and i think it would be really expensive.)

And so i was looking on one i can do myself looking a bit like this. And i found a really simple and quick tutorial on doing a little jewelry box. 

And here is the matching link with the tutorial: follow me

useing an empty Ferrero Rocher Container is a really great idea. Especially because i love them. And so i grabed my black paint and an jewelry piece to glue on top and started following the instructions

I simply added some red felt to the inside to give it a more Coffin like look. And prevent the piercing from skratching of the collour. 

It does not look like the jewelry box i fell in love with but it is pretty cool and very cheap too.

show me your diy jewelry boxes. Or do you have some great ones bought?

have a nice day, 

bat wishes
