WOHNIDEE Tip

May we introduce: one of the most beautiful creative blogs in the vastness of the Internet - on "Hamburger Liebe" shows us Susanne Firmenich, how we can make our home even more beautiful with loving do-it-yourself ideas, colorful fabrics and delicious recipes.

The design and living blog "Hamburger Liebe" is a real treasure chest on the Internet: DIY ideas with free follow-up instructions, recipes for dishes that look as if they came from a picture book and fabric designs with an absolute heartbeat guarantee. In short: a dream for all creatives among us.

"I wanted to do something that lasted, something that others can enjoy in the long term and create things for themselves, " says the most successful textile designer of the past two years.

Former Art Director Susanne Firmenich moved to Hamburg almost ten years ago because of love. This is how the name of her blog and label "Hamburger Liebe" was born. As art director in advertising, she felt only partially comfortable, as she saw her profession rather in something that has sustainable existence. Our all luck! Her supreme discipline: sewing and inventing patterns. The good mood designs of the Hamburger can be found on children's fabrics, pillows, blankets, bicycle saddle covers, lovingly created decorative items and much more. Her style: graphic, playful, cheerful and with a touch of retro flair.

We would now like to introduce you to a small selection of your original ideas.

Pssst, small tip: It is worthwhile to read further, because the DIY tips lead via direct links to free instructions.

AT A GLANCE: CREATIVE IDEAS OF SUSANNE

While the blogger's two children are at school until the afternoons, her studio creates new ideas that she passionately shares with readers of her blog in tutorials - in other words, written instructions on direct imitation.

"Mug-sweater" in Brit-Love-look

"Ever since trendy drinks like latte macchiato or chai-tea have come into vogue, they prefer to be served in glasses instead of cups, " she says on her blog, adding, "Glasses do not have a handle and you do not burn yourself The good news: thanks to the invention of Becherpullis (almost only under the heading 'things that the world does not need') you can not just drink the bar from the glass without burning your fingers - it sees even more stylish! Honest. "

By the way, the instructions are >> HERE

Pimp the glasses

Have you ever wanted to donate old jam jars? And did you have to fight the original labels, which had diligently seized on the glass, and have lost after a lot of back and forth - maybe broke even the fingernails?

Susanne finally puts an end to the misery. Your idea is very easy to implement: just collect or buy fabric remnants and give the glass a new garment - but tailor-made, please! If so, because ...

How it works - we'll show you now >> HERE

Everyone is really happy!

So let's just say that we are not only happy about the sight of such a beautiful quilt, who made it comfortable on the armchair, but that the name says it all. "Happy" is the name of the fabric itself!

"Happy" does not just mean "being happy", it MAKES it. If this is not a good condition for a start in the next sewing session, right?

To the needle, get set, go: Susanne contributes the fabrics and instructions. All you have to do is select your favorite fabric and get started.

We promise you that it will be nice and cozy in winter.

And here's the instructions: >> QUILT SEW

Bike fans beware!

Anyone who not only likes to use his allen wrench, crank puller and screwdriver on his bike, but also takes care of it and provides it with nice accessories, will take a closer look.

Because: Such an individual saddle dress does not just enhance our bike's appearance. This bicycle saddle cover also offers wet-protection for the next-day saddle! Clever thought and cleverly implemented - we find.

AND WHAT ELSE:

Blogger Contest

Although the busy creative juggler is struggling to reconcile family life and work, she can not help but take part in a blogger contest. The lingering laundry then just has to linger a bit longer ... No! That's not quite true, because Susanne has hired a cleaning lady due to her time constraints. Why not - at least neither family nor work gets left behind.

How did that happen?

"When Anna von Dawanda asked me if I would like to participate in the Dawanda Blogger Contest, two things were immediately clear to me: First, I want that!" Second, I do not have time for that, I just neglected the time factor, because why? are there nights? ", Susanne confesses.

Any questions?! Not at the moment. We are now crunching ourselves very fast and quietly to our craft table and romp ourselves creative really.

Maybe we'll just drop in on the "Hamburger Liebe" blog, if we run out of ideas. Susanne certainly has exciting do-it-yourself tips in store, such as this one: >> White flowers from Efaplast

By the way, the BLOG is about >> HERE

Thank you, Susanne - for your great inspirations and the sustainable input, with which we and our readers can continue to create beautiful things!

PS: There will not be a standstill in the "Hamburger Liebe" blog in the future, because there are already ideas for wallpaper, paper mills or porcelain in planning. But that is still a little secret and anchored in Susanne's creative mind.
