Koyocon Aarhus 2023

Koyocon Aarhus 2023

This weekend I went to Koyocon Aarhus as a guest. It was the first time this event happened in Aarhus and it was the biggest one yet. That meant there was loads to see - more dealers and more artist alley, more people in general. I met many old friends and talked to...

Huskylock 910 knife repair

Huskylock 910 knife repair

So last year, I replaced my beloved Husqvarna Viking Huskylock 910 with a brand new serger, because my Huskylock just wasn't running well. The dealer I bought the new machine from offered to take my old as a trade-in, but I wasn't ready to say goodbye to it. I bought...

Gamebox 2023

Gamebox 2023

Gamebox 2023 happened a little over a week ago, and it was really great! This year, the event was more focused on the LAN-part, which meant there were fewer booths and fewer cosplayers, but more people overall. None the less, we had a really great time, and our booth...

New cosplay: Astral Warden

New cosplay: Astral Warden

I finally finished my Astral Warden cosplay! And this time, I didn't take a year to make a write-up about it - it's on my page already. You can find it here or under write-ups in the topmenu. I also added photos of it to the gallery. This was a cosplay I started last...

Scificon 2023

Scificon 2023

My first event of the year was Scificon Randers. It was a good opportunity to finally push to finish my new Astral Warden druid, and I did manage to make it wearable - I finished it the day before the event. There are things still to change, but I'm happy with how it...

The Sprite Darter and other projects

The Sprite Darter and other projects

As you may  have seen already, I added a write-up about my Sprite Darter cosplay. Special about this one is the fact that I collaborated with Zibartas Cosplay who made the wing harness. We made a video together about it, which you can see here or together with the...

Goodbye, 2022 – Hello 2023!

Goodbye, 2022 – Hello 2023!

2022 has come to an end and a new year means new goals, right? I'll admit, when it comes to making new cosplays, 2022 was probably one of my worst years yet. I'm not really sure why, I guess there was just many other things going on in my life. It's not that I wasn't...

London Comic Con Winter 2022

London Comic Con Winter 2022

I just got back yesterday from London Comic Con Winter and this time, I'm doing my post con post immediately!  In the week leading up to the event, I was nervous I wouldn't be able to go. I've been coughing and snuffy nosed since Yunicon last month, and although I...

Yunicon 2022

Yunicon 2022

It's been almost a month since Yunicon and I feel bad for not making a post about it earlier. But I've been so sick and stressed since, I haven't had the energy. I was sick on the day we headed home (31st of October) and as of writing this (22nd of Nov.) I'm still...

“Magiske Dage” in Odense

“Magiske Dage” in Odense

This weekend I visited Magiske Dage (Magical days) in Odense. It's a yearly city festival in the Danish town of Odense (hometown of famous fairytale author H.C. Andersen). Since 2002, they've been hosting this event, which originally was a Harry Potter-festival (until...

Rapunzel hair

Rapunzel hair

I think I did a post here about my hair before, but ages ago. I figured it's time to answer some questions about my hair again, because I often get them. So, here's some random thoughts and answers to questions about my hair. Many ask how long I have been growing my...

Autumn update 2022

Autumn update 2022

I'm still alive! Just taking a little break from cosplay. Fantasy Festival exhausted me socially, and I didn't feel like working on cosplays for a while. But since I'm a creative person, that didn't mean I did nothing - I've been getting into making hair sticks and...

Fantasy Festival 2022

Fantasy Festival 2022

Last weekend I went to Fantasy Festival with my cosplay group, Warcrafters. We hosted a little booth where we showed people what cosplay is and it was super popular as always. We arrived friday to set up and saturday was the first big day. This year's saturday had...

Vacation & a huge fabric shop

Vacation & a huge fabric shop

So this last week I had my first vacation that didn't involve cosplaying in a looong time. I travelled to Vilnius, Lithuania and explored the city. I can recommend this place - there's many things to see and the old town is full of pretty buildings and interesting...

All of the Rapunzel

All of the Rapunzel

So I've been putting off photoshoots for a while for a few reasons. First, it's been summer and it's just kinda sucky to do photoshoots when it's full-on summer. Outside, it's too sunny (best weather for photoshoot is overcast) and it's just generally too hot...

Gamevention 2022

Gamevention 2022

Last weekend, I was at Gamevention with the Warcrafters. It's the first German convention in years and it was great to see new and old friends there. We had a booth exhibiting our things and had so many visitors - I also spoke so much German, haha. I am always...
