I made this set of three felt canvases for my nephew - OK, so Graeme and I did it together.
Love the different textures: paint, felt, buttons. Am planning on doing a similar set for Luca and Kian (if I ever get the time).
What do you think??? |
Next on the Christmas present list was Luca's teacher. I wanted to make her something very special to say thank you, so I got out some old Christmas/birthday cards, along with magazines and felt.
I painted a large canvas in pale blue, made felt letters, tore up pieces of pretty card, used Luca's butterfly punch and found other bits and pieces in my craft box.
I even found a snail! |
Not bad for someone who claims not to have a crafty bone in her body – even if I do say so myself!
I'm really thrilled with how it's turned out... I've got an idea for something similar to hang on the boys' bedrooms now.
I knew all my bags and boxes of old cards would come in handy eventually!
That is beautiful. I completely ran out of time for teacher gifts - will have to do New Year cards and gifts instead. He moves up a room in Jan so it might be farewell presents combined.
ReplyDeleteFunny about your mum's old Chef. Yeah, going to book mine if for a service of something after Christmas. See what they can do!
