Craft Night: Easy and adorable felt brooches

Check out these super cute brooches we made at our last craft night! Inspired by various things Jane found online, we each whipped up our own little brooches with felt, embroidery floss and little pinbacks. Jane didn't quite finish hers but here are Vanessa's, Megan's and mine pinned on a previous craft night project, a tote bag!

Two more tiny lockets

Here are two more tiny lockets I made for Christmas gifts. One for V and one for Holly.

A blooming deer, this is the same locket as the bird hat lady that I posted last.


A colorful heart for Holly. This locket is a bit smaller than the other.

Locket of Love

So so proud of this first little locket I made for my dear friend Meredith. More of these coming soon, and to be sold in the etsy shop. Suggestions of miniature arts I can stitch in there?

Pom Poms-Not Just for Cheerleaders

I saw this DIY wreath post on Apartment Therapy and followed it to Bleubird Vintage's blog and found the cutest wreath ever. (Also, the cutest blog ever but that's another story) The colors she used work for both Thanksgiving and Christmas but you could really use any colors you want. We made this our next project for our weekly ladies craft night. The first time I made one of these cute little pom poms I was squealing and texting Michelle with their cuteness, only to find she was on the other end doing the same. We got a head start on making the pom poms but overall it only took a few hours collectively to make enough for the 3 wreaths that we made. Bleubird suggests making about 40 pom poms for each wreath but I felt I could've used more in the end to cover more surface area. It took us two evenings as a group to make them, one to make the pom poms and one to assemble the wreaths.

We all found this project to be super simple and everyone loved the end result! To make your own pom pom wreath check out this post on Bleubird's blog!

The first of many to be made

So cute!

Two cards and two notebooks

This is a lot of stuff in one post because I am too impatient to post them all separately. Should be posting lots more soon, since we are crossing our fingers we get into Crafty Wonderland!

Monogrammed notebooks, H for Holly and A for someone who bought one from Etsy!




Birthday cards for two September ladies, Missy and Mari! I really love how both of these turned out. So cute.

C & P, a wedding card.

So have you heard of this amazing website, Spoonflower? Well you upload your own patterns and you can have them printed on fabric! Once you order a swatch you can sell your patterns to the public on the site! They have lots of different fabric options from lightweight cotton quilting fabric to upholstery weight twill and all kinds in between and they do contests where you design certain themed fabric patterns.

They had a special a little bit back where you could get an 8" x 8" swatch for free (normally $5)! So I uploaded a bunch of my patterns and ordered one of my own! Though I will probably tweak it before allowing it to be sold, the swatch was a perfect background for the card I wanted to make for my boyfriend's sister's wedding the following week.

I stitched a C and P for the bride and groom's initials and then did a little ambersand in between. I love the ampersand, it is my favorite part. I then stitched a heart around it which turned out kinda wonky but I still think this card turned out awfully cute and I hope C & P like it.
