Attempt at "upcycling". Kindle slipcase/sock

Never had a go at this upcycling craze before.  I had some UGGs i'd worn into the ground and couldn't bare to part with though, so had an idea that one might make a good cosy slip case cover for my kindle.  So, (broken heartedly) i cut the top off of one.  Now to think of something for the other...Hmmm.

Recent make..a TIARA!

First ever go i had at one.  Quite pleased.  Might try a bead boquet next :)

scrapbooking

Gotten into scrapbooking lately and going back through old holiday photos and making scrapbooks of them.  This is one from our first Caribbean cruise a few years ago.

Long time no blog..

A few of my newer pieces.  I haven't added anything in so long and there's a pile of jewellery and other projects i've been meaning to put up here for ages.  Must get around to it.

New jewellery August 2011

New jewellery

I haven't made any in a while but got new requests and orders coming in so thought it was time to start making some again. Plus i wanted to get a head start on making some ready for my holiday this christmas..a very big head start i realise, but it makes the holiday seem nearer.

First photo is white seed beads and turquise chips, second one is clear and pink swarovski bicones on a memory wire bracelet.

Crochet lavender eye mask

crochet a rectangle (i used a net stitch) and indise is a material pouch filled with rice and dried lavender flowers from the garden, so it's nice and heavy when you put it on. Smells yummy and is really relaxing.
Also i made a lavender spray by heating some flowers in water and decanting it into a spray bottle so the smell can be refreshed when it starts to fade.
