Bags with Bling!

Just perfect for the summer! Three pretty bags.

These were fun to make with some beads and bling.
Have a good weekend!

New Year and New Achievements

I enjoy the challenge of something new. Solving a puzzle leaves me feeling happy. For a long time Oly and I had been trying to think of a way to make toiletry bottles without spending a fortune and getting into mixing resins, hardeners and colours. Little by little as the months passed we tried several ideas but finally we perfected a way that suits us! I made so many I had to design some display stands for them.

Then I got carried away with the stand making and made even more, so filled them with bling! I love sparkly.

Solving one problem produces another! Now the Ladies Shop needs more tables and shelving!

Time has flown by since my last post and I won't even start to tell you the reasons why I've been away for a month!
Despite everything there has always been somewhere each day where I've able to squeeze in a little time for making miniatures, even if I have to sit up until 2am to do it!

 I've designed some more boxes. These all have matching gift tags.

I've put together lots of boxed gifts. Here are two.

These boxes are to keep cakes or biscuits fresh.

Fun boxes to fill shelves.

And boxes for the Ladies Shop.

I decided, as a lover of bling to add some to the oval boxes but I think maybe I over did it!

I fell in love with some gorgeous art-work by Janet. She has these lovely tickets which I have miniaturised.

They are perfect for adding to keepsake boxes.

 I did the same with her vintage cards which I've tied into bundles.

You can find Janet on Etsy HereThese are just some of the new makes that I have to find room for in the gift shop at Jilly's Tea Rooms. Others have been made for gifts to friends and some will find their way onto Etsy.
Thank you for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit!

Interior Design and Christmas Sparkle!

I've been putting together some 'bling'. Quite a bit more than I planned, as I got carried away with the sparkle and glamour. I also made a few candles, all glittered and sparkling for Christmas, or if you're like me, -  any old time, I love sparkle! So now I shall have a 'home decor' department somewhere in my shop!
