Crochet bunting

I finally "got around" to finishing this crochet bunting which was a project I started last year (yikes, I know!) and intended to give to my friend who was having a baby. Well, little Sarah is eight (!!!) months already and I was very pleased to finally give it to her yesterday. She's started sleeping in her own room and the bunting came as a perfect gift to celebrate the occasion. I'll take some pictures of her room to show for another time. I had to drape these over the cupboards in the kitchen to get the "feel" for what it will look like, since it's so long and I had nowhere else to do so.

I like these so much, that I've decided to make a whole bunch to sell at a market. Will keep you posted on that too.

Happy day!

Inspiration from one of my favourite on-line boutiques and interior shops BODIE and FOU whom I wrote about here, a while ago.... I'm totally addicted to their sites and pages and can spend hours reading and getting my dose of eye-candy. Check it out for yourself...... With Christmas shopping upon us, I can easily break the bank at their shop... Hehehe. What about you?

Crochet bunting

So, I've been busy yet again with a bit of crochet and this is the result; crochet bunting. These are perfect for indoors and outdoors and I'm planning to make one with bigger "flags" to string up in our trees, as soon as the weather warms up a bit. 

I'm also thinking of a few in more muted colours, for kid's rooms. As soon as I have a couple ready, I'll post some photo's.

Happy day!

Space garland

I'm still playing around with lovely papers. Today's creation looks like this....






I just love the bright colors of these.

Babushka garland

When I saw this paper at the Scrapbook Warehouse, I couldn't resist it. There was only one sheet left, but I will definitely see if I can find more elsewhere. It didn't take me long to make this garland, and I think it is really pretty for a girls' bedroom, or anywhere in your home. I just put it up against the wall of kitchen to show off the bright colors....







It really is very sweet; even my 11yr old son likes it; but NOT for his bedroom... Hahaha
