Lots of love!

Well folks, here we are in February! Already. I started pottering last week, to make a valentine's hairband for my girly. I love making things for her, she LOVES everything! She is always just bubbling over with so much enthusiasm for life. I love it when this tips over into  all of her mama made belongings. I love hearing her proudly telling everyone that her mummy made it for her.

Ok, complete tangent there! Where was I? Oh yeah, valentine's day. I started pottering with some felt and made a sweet little heart for K to wear in her hair. This simple little heart made me smile so much that I decided to keep going. I spent a few lovely relaxing nights watching tv and playing with some felt and button and all sorts of valentine coloured fun! It was nice to be able to sit with the boys and craft away rather than hiding away in my crafty zone with the sewing machine whirring away.

The end result was a wee variety of hearts that can be added to hairbands, clips , brooches or even keyrings! First up - some hairbands


A beautiful glittery pink band with my hand stitched felt heart embellishment.




I also added one to a plain pink band. Simple and pretty.


Each heart is a unique combination of buttons and ribbon roses.



I also attached one to a an alligator clip  and it would be so sweet pulling a little hair back or even nestled in to the side of a ponytal or other "up do!"





I haven't attached them all yet as I wasn't sure which would be most popular so I thought I would just share pics of the hearts and the buyers could choose and then tell me how they would like to wear it and I would go forth and oblige!





The hearts measure approx 2 1/2" x 3" and there is one slightly bigger heart that is 3" x 3 1/4"

The prices are as follows
Hairband - £3.50
Brooch pin - £3.00
Clippy - £3.00
Keyring - 3.00

My girly is off to school wearing hers today, she chose a pink glittery hairband for , I must remember to take a pic of her when she gets home fron school :-) , we even have sunshine here today so it will be fun and probably a little wiggly.

I am off to list the finished ones in my folksy shop , if you would like to order one of the hearts, drop me an email (email addy next to my profile at the top right of the page) or leave me a comment to let me know which one is your favourite and how you would like it!

Girly floral and lace headband.

A lovely, floral hairband with a unique lace and ribbon embellishment, finished off with a textured metal button.

£4.00








The beautiful floral pattern on the band was just begging for some delicate, girly details to be added. I think they compliment each other very sweetly.

New items on offer!

I have had a busy couple of weeks over here. I had a few orders to make and send to their new homes and I have tried to start building a wee stock of items.

Last weekend my little girl K was heading out for the day with her Granny and Auntie. Her sweet new dress was just begging for a hair accessory to match and so I whipped up a starburst flower hairband. As soon as I saw it I fell in love with and just knew I had to make more! I had enough materials to make one more  so I could post it to my folksy.

Isn't she sweet ?





There is one available £4.50 and available by leaving a comment here or through my Folksy shop link here


Some more new items for sale




I love this one :-)

The cutie patootie.

I have another flower in my folksy account, this one has an interesting history! I really like her, I had to think twice about offering her up, but she needs a new home.

Here she is

Beautiful cream floral fabric flower with a sweet little button centre,
This would be a beautiful accessory for any coat, cardi.

Approx dimensions of flower are 4.5" x 4.5" and it is around 2" front to back.


I have mounted this one onto a brooch pin.


As it is quite large I think it would even look fabulous pinned onto a bag.
