Wooden “Honeycomb” Earings…
I made these’s wooden earings last night…. first bit of crafting since starting my kitchen, last week…. so I thought I would start with something easy…. to break me back into crafting…. lol I got the wooden beads from our local second hand shop for 10p…. they were from a big necklace, that i cut up…… naughty me i know!
They remind me of honeycombs……… So thats there nickname!!
New Kitchen…. well not quiet
Well maybe not quiet a new Kitchen…. But we have been here for nearly 3 year in July and all I’ve had to face everyday in there is plaster walls, but now its got paper on it all ready to paint “Spring” once the paste drys out! Which will be in the next couple of days! But I’ve been putting the finishing touches to the tiles by putting some trasfer tiles on, which look quiet good, if I have to say so myself! Well I was sick of seeing white tiles and fancied a changed and saw these’s tile trasfers, plus they easy to put on, as I have them in my bathroom with Dolphines on!
I have added a picture of the tiles while they were boring white and added a picture of them once they have the trasfer tiles…..
Boring White Tiles….
No longer “white tiles”………
The last picture is the finishing touch! Well on that worktop is it!!! lol
Truely sorry….
I am truely sorry that I have not done any craft work for a week or 2. We have been up to the eye balls in decorating our Kitchen. And it is taking longer then we thought it would. Things are not working out right, but just hoping that all the glossing will be done sometime today, so that I can start papering!! Yay I love papering…. but glossing no way! Even my 4 year old ask if she could do a spot of painting, I was very tempting to let her have a go……. But then that wouldnt be a very good idea! But she could have suprised me and do a fab job, maybe better then myself and my partner! LOL
I might have a chilling weekend and try and get some sort of craft work done, but once again that depends on how I get on with the kitchen today. Well that’s it for now……….. back to the grind stone 
Pair of Beaded Earring’s
Here is a pair of Beaded Earring’s I made to “Match” the necklace once I get it onto a chain… The photo doesn’t get the Earring’s justice and the colour…. The beads are an Aqua Blue
Part of a…. Beaded Necklace
This photo doesnt give this piece justice’s. It is going to be part of a necklace once I get it done! I am going to have to put abit of weight on the beads so that they are more flat, ready to go onto a necklace. Once I have got it as a Necklace I will post the finishing picture!
This isn’t the piece, I’ve been working on….. I have had other designs but its not gone to plan! But hopeful it will work out in the end!
Winnie the Pooh & Piglet Statue…..
Well I got bored this afternoon, and my jewellery making wasn’t going to plan. I’ve got idea’s in my head and it’s just not working! So to pass the time away I thought why not “paint” my Winnie the Pooh and Piglet Statue…. That my Little brother got me for my Christmas box.”I know what ya thinking…. why have i got a Winnie the Pooh painting set for Christmas?” Well I’m mad about ”Winnie the Pooh & his Friends.” I’ve still got my Eeyore Statue to paint yet… but was hoping that it all went to plan……. And yes it worked out just great in the end. I didn’t realised that I had such steady hands… Now that I have finished him and he is dry, he will be taking “Pride and Joy in my glass unit”
Keep a look out as once I have painted Eeyore he will be on here!
Quilled Gift Tag…
Here is a piece of one of my many quilled item’s mounted onto a “Birthday” Gift tag. I enjoy quilling alot
Melted Beads
Well I did try to start making Jewellery but my 4 year old daughter decided to get her plastic beads and start making a Dolphin and wanted my help. So I downed my tools and went to help her as there was beads everywhere, I’m so pleased there not the beads I use…..
So this is a piece my little one did with the help of me. Not bad for her first time… Plus I had to go routing for my iron….
No Excuse………
Well there “No Excuse” now…. for why I shouldn’t be crafting. As Christmas and New Year is over! And its back to normal life… being a busy full time mum and getting jobs around the house done! And not forgetting in my spare time that I am sat on my Bum, why I shouldnt be doing a bit of craft work! I have be told if I don’t get back to doing my craft…. then my beads will be took off me!! And “yes” you know who you are… LOL So to set the book straight I will do as I am told and start doing some craft work just for “you Shana” LOL
Sorry…..
As with Christmas day less the 24 hours away, and I have a young Family to entertain & feed, I will not have time to do any “Craft” work. But will be back “Crafting” in the New Year! “Watch this space”
I would like to Wish Everyone a Very Merry Christmas & A Very Healthy New Year 2009
