snowflakes

Figure if it isn't gonna snow, I should make my own snowflakes.

It's been awhile since I've done any wire work or beading.

I saw something similar and re-created it.

Happy Holidays!

d.i.y.

I've been seeing these "snoods" or infinity scarves here and there.

I didn't want to go out and buy one, so I "made" one...

Use a skirt pin (top left) and your favorite muffler/scarf.
Pin the ends together (top right & bottom left)
Wear it!

Now if the trend dies, I can go back to using it like a muffler/scarf.

utensil holder

I've been wanting to make a utensil holder for some time now.

Since today is very rainy and I'm stuck indoors, I decided to keep myself busy with this project.

I put two pieces of scrap fabric together and made this based on a roll-up type holder a friend had given me.

Her roll-up holder was made from a face towel.

My utensil holder holds, forks, spoons, chopsticks, butter knives & an area for tissues.

My fabric wasn't straight to begin with so when I sewed it together, it didn't come out straight either.

Anyway, I like how this turned out. I also recycled a stretchy ribbon that came with some cookies...it's like a big fabric rubber band.

iphone case & bag

Found a cute Hello Kitty print...made this iPhone holder that can also hold the earphones.

With the majority of the fabric I made this bag.

etsy purchase #2

New pendant that I purchased from Kimono Reincarnate. This purchase was to donate monies to the flood victims in Australia. Plus I really like her crafts and this is perfect for the Year of the Rabbit.
