Back In the Game

No good comes of sitting in a dark room, mumbling and moaning and possibly a bit of rocking too.

So i'm back once again trying to get my craft out there.

I hope you like it!

Lavender Bath Salts

These are the next item to go in my xmas hampers. I took an old kilner jar and filled it with a mixture of epsom and rock salt. I used dried lavender for scent and finished it off with ribbon, raffia and a vintage spoon.

Lately all I ever seem to do is search for afffordable kilner jars and spoons. lol

Mustard Fascinator

I recently had a giveaway over at my fraggierocks facebook page. I really like this mustard fascinator I was sad to see it go. Its hand blocked and the pom decoration was hand cut and finished with a vintage button.

Take a peek over at my facebook page to see who won and to keep up to date with all the fraggierocks gossip!

Another Commission

I've been really blessed lately to have had a few commissions and this was one of the most technically challenging. Its a hand blocked purple sinamay base with hand rolled sinamay bow detailing and purple feathers.

I am really pleased with the results and I'm glad I went with a dark purple it looks more chic.

In other news I have a mahoosive shed coming soon which I shall be turning into a studio. I am so excited because I will finally have space to spread out all my pretty things instead of bags stuffed everywhere. I'll also be glad to get my house back it was starting to look like a Hobbycraft knock-off lol
