Brett Loved this camouflage dinosaur material so when i made the cushion he claimed it as his own. The boys didn't get a look in

The pokemon gift bag and little beanbag was a gift for Harrisons friend..who is made keen about Pokemon.

Sew....................

the heat bags got packaged and given away. Note: to make some more for gifts.

Fresh Lavender and Rice to fill the heat bags.

This afternoon Donnie, Deb and I gathered around her lavender bush to cut some fresh lavender, for the purpose of putting them into heat bags. A Little one for Ainsley to take with her and I thought I might as well make one

for Don, Deb and myself as we all love the smell of Lavender. A Little reminder of Don's garden for her when she leaves and settles into her new state and for her new " Humble " abode.

Tonight I whipped up this quick cushion to go with a nice black fleece throw of Harrisons, it goes well with the spider material. I placed it next to him in bed so when he wakes he will find it.

These two are for my boys......and the rest are for gifts. They could also be used for marbles or anything really.
I have done more but i think u get the jist of the idea of what i made.

Then I found these cute hankies and turned them into pencil bags, with the drawstrings. The ones with the cute yo-yo flowers are for the twins Lou-Lou and Scarlett.

Sew what next???

These headbands were fun to make too................and pretty!

Well I have been venturing into a new hobby SEWING!!!! This interest has been sparked by my friend who sews. We have been creating together some gorgeous delectable felt play food for our kids check them out at http://sewinghumblethreads@blogspot.com Food from pizza to pasta, to sweet delights, icecreams, and fruit and vegetable, well one vegie at this stage.

So with the felt food inspiration came more sewing ideas and the thought that yes i can do this. Hence Jacks Chef outfit. Love the Green check, being his favourite colour it looks great on him.

Mum delighted me with the gift of a sewing machine for my b'day. These are some of the things I have begun to create.......OOOOO it's fun isn't it!

I am really excited to share so many little projects with you that i have been completing.

Recently I was given some frames to recycle and do something? with, thanks Don! I suddenly got inspired to recreate a new look for my front entrance area that has always been a difficult space to make work, that seems comfortable, as it is not a huge area.

Hiding in the shed was a very worn chest of drawers which i just love, and i had started to sand back some years ago( another incomplete project) anyhoo, thought i would just dust off the dust and move it back inside. I have added a great mirror that i picked up treasure hunting for $5.00.

Then too decorate...as u can see in the pic, this is how i have it now. On the table top are some frames that i have made., going with the beachy theme.

I have been doing soooo many little projects this week it is really hard to share it all at once, so I am going to share a little each day for the next few days.

It is exactly the feel that is me, and i am so content in the earthy, rustic, beachy, shabby chic look, that completes my soul. So, all up one happy little crafter here. I have got the serious redecorate and craft bug its not funny, look out kids Mums on a creative roll, so don't stand in her way. I have managed to find time to feed and bath them, in between, and they have also helped me a little along the way..thanks boys.xxx

Well as they say someones else's trash, someone else's treasure, which is the case this week when Don, was doing her clean out, she passed on some photo frames to me, in a variety of sizes and some craft boards. This Blue hessian, butterfly board is something i created today from one of them, actually i made 2, ready to sell at the next market. Staple gun, paint, hessian, and some ribbon pieces in my ribbon box...cost? Next to nothing.
These simple gift tags, have been stashed away for a few years now, i went mad on making them at some point, theyre still real pretty and will be put out for sale real cheap at my next upcoming market. I've put 6 in a bag and will sell for $1.00. Cheap!

A few weeks ago, when tripping thru one of my fav. weekend markets, my dear friend and I came across some gorgeous handmade mulberry paper. In many colours, so this week I made these pink envelopes with a sheet of it and stamped on a starfish. Bit cute i thought so i will be making some more......of course, more colours to experiment with.
