It still amazes me that I made all of these crochet wreaths. Yet despite being incredibly busy with lots of unfinished crochet projects do I find myself buying another polystyrene wreath base!. Do I need another crochet wreath? Not really but i just cant help myself. Do I have an idea for this wreath? No I do not. So in times of creative block i do the only thing I can and that's head to Pinterest. If your not on Pinterest you are missing out on an amazing resource. I have been pinning like mad. This is the link for my board I made to hello inspire me. I like the idea of something completely covered in big roses but at the same time i like the look of some of the rainbow yarn I've seen in the craft shops. a little bit of paintingYou know how I find paper craft very relaxing well so is painting and I have decided to dedicate a few hours each week to painting . I have just finished this one as a type this blog so its going to need a few days for the paint to dry before it can be varnished. I have painted an mdf board in this lovely blue then added the words using Americana paints in warm white Hauser light green and yellow ochre. I added the flowers I like this one its a little rustic but that adds to the charm. Once this was had its coats of varnish it will be added to my etsy shop. This coaster is not so good but I think its late and I'm getting tired. So much has happened this week including making myself a copper bangle. I have wanted one for ages. I have etched you can do anything in to it but its a little hard to see. I have some special ink coming which I hope will make It more visable. I absolutely love copper and making this was great in fact I am hoping to start selling them in the near future.
I have order lots of supplies I am so excited but id like to have a play before I share it with you. Its all very exciting investing in my little business and investing in me. I did get asked the other day how I find the time to do so much which got me thinking about sharing with you my week of makes. So hopefully if all goes well I will share with you the highs and lows of a week of crafting. As always thanks for checking my blog. xxxx
