Flower Purse, Vintage Buttons - Day 71

I have done some more work on the purse that I started making yesterday!

StephieStephie

I added some small vintage buttons and made a spotty fabric flower from the same material that I used as the lining fabric.

I have also started on making a mini purse but I will have to see how it goes.

I really just need to get making some bags so I can use up all the fabric that I have in my craft room!

Sunday Rain And Purses - Day 70

It is incredibly wet here in Hudderfield, the Sky is that miserably gray colour and everywhere is soaking wet.

I have been making a purse today and this is one of the initial photographs. It is still in the making process so I will have to post another photograph later when it is finished.

This is a close up of some of the side stitching on the purse.

Chicks Party - Day 69

My freind is going to get married on the 2nd July and today was her chicks party. We all went out bowling and then went for a lovely meal. I have had a truly great day today and cannot wait for the wedding. I have also just found out that another friend is also getting married in just a few weeks. I am so excited for them both and wish them all the happiness in the world as they definately need it :o)

Wet and needle felted beads by StephieStephie

When I got back in I started wet felting some of the beads that I prepared yesterday. I have only done a few so far but will have to do the rest soon. I cannot wait until they are made into the finished products.

I will keep you posted.

Making Felt Beads - Day 68

I have been making a few felt beads to make into some earrings. So far I have just prepared the roving into balls by needle felting them. They all still need wet felting before they can be made into earrings.

I have also had Miss Patch out tonight (our bunny) and had her sat on my lap stroking her for a while. She is ever so well behaved! She even licked my hand after stoking her -  I have never had a rabbit lick my hand before, it was very cute although I did go n wash my hands straight away :o)

Flowers And Hearts Felt WIP - Day 67

Hasn't the weather been rather crazy lately? First sunshine, then heavy rain, then thunder and lightening, then sunshine, then more heavy rain, then sunshine! These weather people must be having a hard time :o)

So tonight, aside from making a lovely delicious lasagna and playing with out new bunny rabbit, I have been cutting out some bits of felt.

Work In Progress by StephieStephie

I think that I am going to make the large white felt flowers into headbands and make the hearts into ornaments? Or maybe key rings? I am not sure with the hearts yet. I am planning to add a few beads to them all too if i can find any that suit :o)

Once these are made I will be adding them to my folksy shop as some of the first items to go on sale in the new online store. I am thinking that my folksy shop is going to be entirely felt oriented? I will have to have a think on that one.

Have a good night

Stephie :o)

Ribbons - Day 64

It is so nice having an outdoor market in Huddersfield, it's filled with stalls selling an array of different things from furniture to fabrics!

I am sharing with you today some of my gorgeous ribbons that I now have in my treasure trove waiting to be used for bags and the likes.

She is about 6 weeks old and loves her new salt block. I am going to see is I can find some recipies for making rabbit treats for her to have - Does anyone know of any?

Stephie :-)

Bournemouth and bunnies - Day 62

We have been out in Bournemouth today celebration at an 85th birthday! Later on we then went to Bournemouth beach and played in the sea. It was so lovely being on a beach as there are not any close to Huddersfield! I have got a couple of tiny stones and shells so I can make a picture frame.

We are now relaxing with the bunnies and later will be getting packed up to go back home.

Hope you all have been enjoying the sunshine?

Stephie :-)

Day Out In Horsham - Day 61

I am going to be having a day out in Horsham today with my husband. It is such a lovely sunny day to explore.

Stephie :-)

More Felt Earrings - Day 60

I have made a second pair of hand felted earrings. I am really liking the way that they have turned out with both the colour combinations and the overall texture of the earrings. They are also incredibly light, you don't even feel like you are wearing them at all!



I cannot wait until tomorrow as we get to see out new bunny for the first time eeek! :-) Photographs will follow soon.

I hope you all enjoy this very warm weather that we are having here in the UK (Incredible rare!)

Stephie :-)

Clay Hearts - Day 59

 I have been painting and varnishing these cute little clay hearts that I made using my cutters I got the othe week from my Nan through the post.

Clay hearts by StephieStephie

I am thinking that I will make these into rings? or mini brooches. I am not sure yet but I am going to have a little experiment to see what will work best.

I am also starting to get very excited about a new member that we will be adding to our family this weekend. It is not a baby but it is definately still cute. We are going to be getting a little bunny rabbit :-) It is all fluff at the moment! We are getting it from another family member as their rabbit has had bunnies. I will be posting photographs of it soon.

Thank you for reading

Stephie :-)
