Dotty Decor!

 

 

Hi all, it's Laura here today.

 

I picked this wooden decoration up at a market in Henley with the intention of giving it a make over...

 

 

 

 

I took the pieces off the string and gave them a few coats of paint, swapped the wooden bead for some nice glass beads and changed the string for ribbon.  I added an extra little bow with a brad in the centre too.

 

 

You can find the ribbons I used here and here.

Thanks for looking in today :)

Have a fabulous birthday!

Hello, Rebeca here with a card I've made using the gorgeous Fresh stripe ribbon in black.

I've simply folded over and sewn 3x 10cm lengths of the ribbon, added a longer 15 cm "tail" and a black button to create this classy bow to decorate a very clean and simple monochrome birthday card.

Hope you're having a FABULOUS weekend,

Rebecca x

Just add buttons

Hats.
Love them or hate them.

Thought about jazzing them up with buttons?

Looks like Mollie loves them - she wouldn't wear this hat until the buttons were added.

We used a selection of buttons from our Basics 2 Go range here
What fun.

Starry Vest

 

Hi, Laura here today.  I want to share with you a vest that I altered...

 

using a water soluble pen, needle, thread and...

 

  

round buttons and star buttons.

  

 

I had just been watching Gardeners World and Monty Don had been 'broadcasting' some wild flower seeds.  I picked up the buttons I wanted to use and 'broadcast' them - read threw them in vaguely the right direction.  The idea was to get a truly random scattering of buttons but just down one strap and on to the chest.

 

 

 

Under each button I made a little mark with my water soluble fabric pen - an x, a 1, a 2, and a dot to identify which type of button was to go where.  Then I stitched them in to place.  It did take a while but I'm pleased with the result...

 

 

(Please excuse the body... it's the only one I have! And I apologise for the lack of head on said body... I'm unable to have a photo taken without pulling silly faces!!)

 

 

If you'd like to try you can find the buttons I used here, here, and here or have a peek at all the buttons Crafty Ribbons stock here. 

 

Bye for now!
