Easter is coming!

I imagine if I had an actual store with walls and windows this is what you would see in the next couple of weeks! 

These are all of my newest items that will be available in my shop this Friday! I worked all weekend on new pieces and creating a fun new twist in some things I have created in the past! It was fun to be re inspired and make them just different enough! 

You may remember these guys from a few years back, I designed them about 5 years ago and have sold them in a variety of ways, but I have to admit this is one of my favorites! 

This is a new wreath I'm working on. The carrots were so fun to make with twine and rit dye. Watch for a tutorial this week!!

That's its for now. Keep an eye on my IG account all week for more sneak peaks and a wonderful Valentine giveaway that's happening now!

Bunny & flower pot tutorial!

I love that spring is here! The rain today is a sure sign, now if only it would warm up!!

I have been working on a lot of maps these days, but also some fun burlap daffodils and bunnies! 

These were a little tedious but so much fun! 

First I made the pompoms from a thick wool yarn. They fluffed up as soon as I started cutting! For the large pompom I wrapped the yarn around my hand! It worked great, just take of your rings! Ha!! 

For the daffodils I used rit dye to dye the burlap yellow. Burlap dyes beautifully! I just do it right in the sink!
For the Orange centers I simply added some liquid dye to water in a spray bottle and sprayed until I got the desired color. 

I cut 6 petals and sewed them together with embroidery floss. I glued the center in place and made stems from floral pics and green burlap. 

To assemble I added a styrofoam ball inside a 4" pot. I used a dowel rod and inserted it into the large pompom and stuck into the ball. I arranged the flowers and then covered with spanish moss. They were so fun to finish up and will look great in my window all spring! 

I had a bunch of bunnies ready to go for Easter! Think Spring!!
