Doily

How cool is this doily? I bought it on the market a few weeks ago and I just needed to make some large fabric buttons with it;)



Here are the buttons, freshly listed in the IwannaBE etsy shop



Unfortunately, those beautiful edges couldn't be kept in making the buttons, but I will make pics of some other doily inspired things I made during the weekend, hopefully tomorrow.

Here is one of my doily treasuries on etsy, made in July, I just love doily stuff!!!!



Have a great week, Katarina

Ginger blossom fabrics

I'm in the middle of preparing my newest sets for upcoming Ginger Blossom launch on ebay, starting on 25 March, celebrating Sandi Henderson's debut fabric line.I'm so excited to be part of this launch, as Sandi's fabrics are just gorgeous and absolutely MUST HAVE, and than there are 75 extremely talented designers that will list theirs items made with this stunning fabric line.

I must say that firstly, I had in mind to create something different than the sets that you will be able to see in a few days;), but as the fabrics I ordered were backordered, I had to create with what I got from thefatquartershop and therefore to combine with some other designer's fabrics;) Hopefully I will have other Sandi's prints too;). We are going to Italy for our Easter holidays and will be there 20-28 March, so I'm in a rush to prepare everything till Thrsday.


The colors are just delicious and I've chosen the prints with my favourite colour-aqua and the crocheted and lace parts are going so good with the fabrics;)





These are hat and tops details




Happy Friday!

Beads, lace, dictionary and more

Well, the past few days were a sort of computer abstinence,LOL(checking from work and my sister doesn't count, right?).We changed some furniture in the house and therefore, we had to change to computer too (the old one just couldn't "fit" the new table anymore) that may sounds crazy...hehe. Actually, we had to replace to "normal" computer with the laptop one, as my minimalistic preferable style unfortunatelly influenced the computer style, too. Maybe I'm the only person in the whole world prefering the standard configured computer (including standard mouse and keyboard), but I suppose that I will get use to it;).
During these non computer days, I had much more time to give some creative ideas breakthrough...or let says craft madness moments.
And well, here are some results














I combined these newly made beads with some old ceramic ones, that I found at my granny's house and it was like discovery of the lost and forgotten treasure

















This is how it looks when on...



I think that I will list it on etsy;)


I also made other 2 necklaces with some felt and fabric and one with lace etc.
I started the first one by cutting the fabric flowers...and than stiching it to the felt shape.









I liked the idea of the composition with some tick branches



And finally I made the necklace that was so long, that I decided to rather make 2 smaller ones:)









The other one was made wits some clooney lace that I like so much









Well, have a nice weekend!!!!
