Hi! I’m Erika,
a young woman who loves creating things out of various materials. I like to reuse and repurpose materials and items and feel inspired by the beauty and calmness of nature in my creative process.
I often get asked how I make the things that I make (from drawings to home decor to food). This made me come to the idea to film the process and put it on youtube.
I would like to inspire people to create, no matter what skill level they’re at; use the materials that they can find around them and get creative! But for those who don’t feel like creating I hope this channel might be a quiet place where they can hide from the busy world for a few minutes.
I hope that you end up finding what you look for in my content!
Have a lovely day!

Building My First Bedside Table from Scratch | Slow Living DIY

Hello there! When I finished secondary school, I actually considered studying furniture design for a few months. I ended up not choosing that path since it was more the actual building of furniture that would interest me rather than the design-part of the studies. (At the end I choose a very different study that interested me a lot.) But now that I am starting to have my own tools, space and a ...

During these summer months the temperatures tend to vary between 30°C and 38°C during the day and between 30°C and 22°C at night. I grew up in a climate where 26°C degrees is already considered warm, so it has been quite an ajustment. But I managed to adapt to the warm temperatures. Taking it slow, and adapting my daily rithm. In this video you can see how a day at home looks like during the su...

Preparing for a slow Christmas
มุมมอง 1.7K11 หลายเดือนก่อน
I always loved Christmas, as it is a very cozy holiday. But now as an adult I can easily get overwhelmed by stress in a month leading up to holidays. I have experienced before that the business makes me forget to enjoy the time leading up to Christmas and makes me feel like everything has been passing too quickly. So, these last few years I decided to prepare for the holidays more slowly and mi...

I too recently started watching your channel and my daughter and I were very taken with your little friend. You gave her such a wonderful life and in turn she enriched yours. I wish peace for you. ❤️
I’m so sorry to hear. 💔
😢
I am so sorry to hear about your rabbit passing away. I know that you will find comfort in knowing that he was loved and gave him a loving home. ❤
❤
Thank you for this beautiful tribute to your sweet rabbit. I too had the surprising gift of a little rabbit eight years ago and he lived with me in our lounge area downstairs. He loved to gaze out of the window at the birds in the trees and the clouds floating by. This gentle creature so different to the cats and dogs I used to have really touched my heart, he wouldn't stay in his cage and preferred to be free in the lounge area. He did become unwell four years after I adopted him. When he died I felt very sad and I missed his presence for a long time. A rabbit is indeed a special companion and you gave your dear rabbit a wonderful life. Sending you blessings.
I have just started watching you and I loved your little rabbit. I am so very sorry. We lost our dog 2 months ago and it is very hard to recover I cried watching this episode .. Such a sweet creature. You are so talented I am amazed at your abilities and that pillow is stunning and she is on the sofa with you always.
I'm here sobbing as you stitch your beautiful bunny friend. Thank you for sharing a little view of life with her. She was well loved and cherished, both in life and in death. I hope you're able to think of her and smile....if not yet, one day in the near future. 🐇
💖💝
What a beautiful commemoration for your little friend. My heart aches for you. So sorry for your loss. I will miss him too as I was intrigued with your unusual pet and found him so adorable. Your embroidery is impeccable!
beautiful video, so quiet and the story of you and your rabbit is lovely, gorgeous embroidery too
Awh❤ you touched my heart with your tribute to your lovely little friend. So sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss. The little ones are as close to our hearts as any family member. A story very beautifully told.
✨🌈♥🌹✨
❤🙏🏻🕊️
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss. She was a special little angel. I also had bunnies and cats and it is truly painful to loose them. Your little one was so attentive, affectionate and funny, reminded me my bunny. He also jumped up to our bed and loved to cuddle. I love your creativity and amazed by the beautiful pillow you just made with you bunny’s cute face. So loveable. I hope your husband already working on a new surprise😊
What a beautiful relationship ! She was deeply loved and retribute it with her little pure heart ❤❤❤
❤
Sorry for your loss. Pet friends can be so close to our souls. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. Much love.

Sad but lovely little video with some amazing embroidery. When I was at school more than 60 years ago I bought a buck Old English rabbit that I called Pompey after a very funny dog in a book called My Dog Pompey. I eventually added 2 does to the "warren" and bred them. Never made any money, but when ready to be weaned I used to wheel a litter in a cardboard box on a wheelbarrow the mile or so to the pet shop and then wheel a sack of food back that would keep the 3 coneys going until the next litter. The little black and white pups were beautiful and I'd let them out in the yard and as they got bigger they could jump amazingly high. No run up, just a pinggg and they were on top of a wall almost a metre high. Pompey was allowed in the house during the day, but had a habit of nibbling things, including a friend of parents' Gannex-style coat. Nice neat little half moons all round the hem :/ Rather a shock at 9.30 as my handle on Usenet is BrritSki !
So sorry that your little bunny has left but is only over the rainbow 🌈 and will remain forever in your heart. Your cushion is beautiful, your memories will always hold dear.
What a beautiful farewell. you will miss her but you can cherish the moments you had with her. With this you pay tribute to her in such a wonderful way❤
“Transforming sadness into beauty where you find comfort” 😢❤
So sorry for your loss. Sending you lots of love ❤
What a beautiful relationship you had with your bunny, and how happy and content she looks in all the footage of your life together! Your art to celebrate her is such a wonderful idea, so exquisitely done. So lovely to share your gift for creating beauty with her. When our little bunny Poppyseed died, we buried her tiny body and planted a buttonbush there. It is a beautiful part of our garden, thriving and green. When I have had to say goodbye to dear ones, I often think of these words by Mary Oliver: "To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go." 💚
Il tuo racconto commovente mi ha fatto ricordare tutte le volte che ho dovuto accompagnare gli ultimi giorni di gatti e cani che sono stati compagni dei miei giorni. Ho da poco scoperto il tuo canale ,amo la tua arte delicata, la tua casa,i tuoi lavori e la tua sensibilità .
I am so very sorry to hear this. This is breaking my heart.

Did he notice. If I painted my hair orange mine would not notice. That’s why men are great, they are non obtrusive.
Well done Erika the kitchen looks lovely and calm 🇨🇦 ❤
WOW 😍! I am so impressed by what you do and how you live! Thank you for your wonderful videos. You have very much inspired me to live more creatively, gracefully, and joyfully! God bless you!
What a lovely, God-given talent!!! BEAUTIFUL!!! ❤❤
How do you get on with the nice rabbit ? Isn't it making dirt, does it go to a rabbit toilet ? We had little rabbits, too, but outside, and they weren't so cosy. Your video is very nice, you are very creative.🎉
Thank you for sharing this delightful video. Warmed my ❤.
Wow absolutely stunning I would bye if you painted small bird of canvas then made them into prints to sell
Fabulous!
