I want to silk screen buoys this summer, so I google-searched buoys, and found some awesome pics. They remind me of warmer weather at the beach. Too bad it's freezing outside...
I have been so busy lately making baby pillows. A nice break from snowmen.
Cut and decorated. Check and check.
I was able to sneak in a pillow for our room. A client off of esty ordered a pillow for her twelfth anniversary, and I realized Craig and I didn't have one. I've been slowly trying to pull the room together with grey and yellow; I painted the walls grey last winter, got all white bedding this past summer, and then made the yellow accent pillow this fall. I ordered this organic grey dot fabric from Birch Fabrics this fall, and paired it with grey canvas instead of the usual cream canvas cake (we had a dark chocolate cake anyways. I love the yellow piping around the cake, the big vintage button in the middle, and how the little hearts contrast on the grey. Very happy with it.
December is always my busiest month, and maybe the only time of the year when I have so many projects at once. Between two craft shows and etsy, I have about twelve pillow projects.
Here are two of the snowmen, and an owl. More to post...
I saw these really cute snow globes in the Sundance catalogue (super over-priced) that used mason jars as the globe. Then looked they up on Pinterest, and of course they were everywhere. I bought some sculpey, glitter and jars today, and we (my parents are here for Thanksgiving and my son Tanner also joined in the fun) started working tonight. Not a one night project. Very crafty, but fun.
These reversible belts were hand-printed with hand-carved stamps made by me. They are made with very studry canvas and muslin (so they stay put once you put them on), and finished off with a high quality acrylic resin buckle. I used the same stamp in the red and yellow belts to create the surface that I used to cover my bracelets. $30 each.
