Well I'm still here, still on my back in friggin' pain, fed up? Over it? Yep? Moving along. Melissa's received her BT so I can now share some of it with you all.
First up, a set of scrabble tile pendants. These are addictive to make. I found these ones hard to part with! I love the black one, I used vintage paper lace from this etsy seller. I LOVE this stuff.
Then I made a couple of scarves using the Spool Sewing tutorial and some Kaffe shot cotton. Of course I can't not embellish so on one I've sewn on a line of sequins and the other a vintage doily.
I bought some acorns from Casey's, once I figured out how to drill a hole in the top, I applied PVA craft glue to the bottoms and sprinkled them with some glitter. I love these and will be making more. Pictured below is some of the packaging, it's actually part of a tiered container from Ikea. The "joy" decoration is from Paper Boat Press, awesome stuff.
And here's a full picture of the button wreath, this was definitely hard to part with. Lots of vintage buttons, mixed with new and the odd felt ball. The buckle is vintage shell and I used linen tape to hang it. So that's most of it. There's some more pictures over at flickr.
