My Creative Space


With the little one ill in the night, I ended up at the kitchen bench making these brooches at 3am this morning. (i'd already painted the fabric stiffener on the doilies a while ago)! I made some like these at the beginning of the year, but with vintage buttons. Theres only one left, which I wear myself. These ones are made with vintage clip on earrings - so have a different look again.

And here's a peek at some orders I've been finishing off.

A bit of kiwiana for overseas.

A doll for a graduating midwife.

Some cushion covers made from old curtains for a friend of a friend.

And these are the 4 sisters from my last Creative Space!

Ki-ki, Mary-Jane Gracie, Josephina Pearl, Violetta-Rose.

For more creative spaces pop over to the clever Kirsty!
I'm off to read Miss G a story, I'll be back later to visit!
(I'll have coffee thanks)x
