Make it yourself!

Folksy have a brililant thing called "Makes" where sellers share a few tips about how to, well, make (duh!) various bits and bobs.

I think they're a great resource, so I did one on how to make my simple "Harvest Treasure" bracelet:


If you're interested you can find out how to do it yourself here - http://www.folksy.com/makes/39-Vintage-style-bracelet

Or if you can't be bothered you can just buy the bracelet from here.

There are lots of others, but I particularly like HannahMaryPinnock's paper trees - http://www.folksy.com/makes/40-Paper-Tree-

In other news, I got an email at work telling me that Bat For Lashes are going on tour. Tres exciting in itself, but also look at the lovely necklace the singer is wearing in this photo. It's got a pony on it!

Opinions needed

I have a beautiful, really delicate vintage filigree brooch in the shape of a butterfly. The trouble is, I can't decide whether to make it into a necklace or a bracelet. What do you guys think? (Sorry about the blurry photo - that's what happend when I only have my phone, not the proper camera):

A wet Wednesday watercolour project to try

I'm actually going to the theatre tonight, so it's more likely to be a soggy Thursday project, but I couldn't resist the alliteration! I fell in love instantly with this dip dyed watercolour stationary project from Paper & Stitch - definitely one for me to have a go at! I have card, but I also have little craft envelopes and TAGS (brilliant!) that would look amazing with this done.

Win a bracelet!

It's competition time! Would you like to win a one of a kind bracelet made from a vintage brooch, chunky amazonite nuggets, rock crystal, pretty pink Peruvian opal and Swarovski crystals? One that fastens with a cute heart-shaped toggle clasp? I thought so! Just to whet your appetite a bit more, here's a couple of pictures: Because it's nearly Valentine's Day I thought I'd have a bit of a soppy theme. So, to win all you have to do is follow me on Twitter here (if you're not already a follower, if you are you can get retweeting right away) and RT any of my tweets that mention the words "Valentine's", "love", "romance" or "romantic". For each RT you will be entered into the draw (no more than one an hour, though!). For two bonus entries, just blog about Made With Love or this competition. The competition runs until midnight on February 9th and I will be announcing the winner then via this blog. Good luck!
