that was weapons grade ugly before ... you did a hell of a job!

Bahahaha! Thanks! 

I thought I'd turn a crap situation into a better one when my little guy decided he hated the Mei Tai carrier I had bought for him & prefered the cruddy stroller; I sold the Mei Tai & bought a second-hand pram for a song but it needed gussying up.




I re-covered all the icky bits with Echino fabric & I love the result so I thought I'd share here in-case anybody was wondering what they could do with an old pram that has seen better days.









Thanks for looking!

Hullo! I got an iPod touch for my birthday recently & I am in luff!!  I have been searching on etsy for cool covers - but I needed one asap since I've been taking it EVERYWHERE, so I made a quick cosy from one of my stash of vintage ties. I made a lil'tute for my blog, so I thought I'd share it here too.

Finished product:

Thanks for looking! 

How very cute! I like the blanket one. And I LOVE the nesting doll one! I've never seen a set of measuring cups like that! You said you're getting yourself another set- would you mind sharing where you got them? I'd love to get myself a set too! I just adore them!

I'm in Oz, got them on the evilbay lol, they were about $17-$18.

Thanks all - I wish I could have kept one of them, but I already have two spiffing pincushions in return, with another two to come!

I recently participated in a pincushion swap on my blog & thought I'd share what I made - I only realised when I posted these pics on my blog that everything was repurposed!

This was made out of two cups from a matryoska measuring cup set - some of the set was melted so I thought using it for crafty good was the way to go, so that I could get another set guilt-free...





Two vintage eggcups:





And a bit of old blanket!



Thanks for looking - I hope maybe I have given you a couple of ideas if you ever find yourself in dire need of a pincushion...

Hey guys - there is a tute on my blog if you would like it, elsewise, I used enamel paint (with a base coat... 2 actually...) & pretty heavy duty epoxy adhesive.

I likey!

Ahahahaha!

Cooler potholders I have never seen....

...or red ornament more like... I don't bake as much as I should!


Ah... red. Makes everything... better. Stand contructed from this;
