Mother's day Spring hanging decorations

Lately I have been creating these pretty Mother's Day/Easter/Spring gift hanging decorations. I chose some fabrics and made flowers from then, then decorated the rest of the wreaths using coordinating ribbons, buttons, lace, fabrics and ricrac.

Each decoration measures 20cm (8") in diameter and has a pretty coordinating bow and ribbon attached with which to hang it in your home! They are currently available from my Folksy shop here. If you have an idea of something similar that you would like please do get in touch with me.

Button Projects

Having not felt that creative over the dull January, I decided to something with all the buttons I've amassed. I had a small type tray which I had painted ages ago and could not think what to do with, and I saw a post where someone else had filled all the spaces with multi coloured buttons so I decided to do that!

Secondly I made a simple artwork for my friend's new baby, Jacob. Using blue buttons I created the initial J and framed it in a simple pale blue painted frame.

Screen printed new baby cards

Since everyone I know seems to be expecting a baby at the moment I decided to print some new baby cards to send to them all (and extra to sell of course!) I hope you like them, they are available to buy on Folksy or Etsy now for £2.70 + p+p.
