1001 Coisas.: About the blog

1001 Coisas means 1001 things in Portuguese and in time I hope to get to that number of projects completed.

Most of the ideas and creations presented in this blog were born of my needs, because I couldn't find what I wanted already done, and what at first was just a way to solve a problem or a need turned into something more, and today when I need something instead of looking for it on stores I start thinking about how I can create it.

Maybe some of these projects will serve as inspiration for other people, so that they also try to do what they couldn't find.

Because I have varied interests, my projects range from jewelry and sewing pieces to woodwork, transformed objects and furniture, organizers and ideas for recycling, reuse and upcycling of materials.

Because I think it's important to make use of what you have instead of simply discarding and throwing away things, many of the projects presented here started from a material or object that I already had and were transformed to give life to another object, creating something new and avoiding waste.

Some of these projects were created with no recipient in mind, just because I had an idea and wanted to put it into practice, so these things are for sale.

I hope to gradually add some ideas, and because I have varied interests and a restless mind, who knows what will come next. Here is a sample of some of my creations.
