WOYWW :: Ring Backs

A couple of weeks ago I treated myself to a set of adjustable ring backs, so today I'm going to get the glue gun out and have a go at making some cute little rings. I'm planning on making some with button detail (including using some of my vintage buttons) and I'm going to make some with some felt flowers on top.

Before I start though I'm going to join the WOYWW Link Party as hosted by the lovely Stamping Ground and take a peek at what everyone else has on their workdesks - I have a feeling it might take me some time ...

What's on your workdesk this Wednesday morning?

Last days of my Summer Sale

Just a quick post this morning to let you know that there are only a couple of days left of my Summer Sale over in my Folksy Shop. So if you are starting to think about Christmas pressies, now is the time to grab yourself a couple of "stocking-filler" bargains.

I have also added these two Felt Flower Wreaths to the Sale - now just £7.50 each! Perfect for a little Princesses Bedroom perhaps? (Or a big princess come to that!).

 Hope you can pop over to take a look - maybe I'll see you at the check-out ... :0).

Show & Tell :: from the first week of the school holidays!

Well, I've survived the first week of the summer holidays - just! To be honest, Superhero has been in football camp all week, so it's just been me and the Princess. So we've spent quite a lot of time going for coffee and doing some "arts & crafts" at home.....

Here are a couple of examples of my latest felt flower corsages:

What do you think? 

What have you been making this week?

Have a great weekend.

What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday :: Pink Flowers

Well I hope the weather is as beautiful where you are as it is here - it's just lovely. So lovely infact that I'm actually working at the garden table today, as I'm sewing by hand for a change. I'm making some more felt flower corsages, this time in pale pinks, snow whites & soft greys, as I thought they would work well as bridal party accessories, perhaps as alternatives to button-holes, or fascinators for flower-girls. What do you think?

I have already made these two in more vibrant colours:

The red flower is going to become a wrist corsage and the green, a hair-slide  - and this time I'm going to keep them for myself....

Right, time for a cuppa and a peek at all the other uber-creative workdesks around the world as hosted by the lovely Julia.

What's on your workdesk this sunny Wednesday afternoon?

Have fun. xx

Tuesday Crafternoon :: Daffodils & Roses

Yesterday afternoon I spent a bit of time designing and making some different felt flower corsages. I went with a daffodil and rose. I think they need some tweaking as I am not 100% happy with them yet - but I think the colours I've used look really good together.

Did you make anything new yesterday?

Have fun. xx
