hiya...I'm not sure if this belongs here, but I made buttons out of salt dough...

I added some lemon juice to my salt dough mixture which is supposed to make it harder (seems to have worked, I have thrown several on the floor and work surfaces in my kitchen and they're all still intact!) then baked them, painted and varnished them...they're to add to crochet flower brooches...



This photo is before I baked them, I hand shaped most of them but used a cutter for the stars and for some of the smaller round ones.

I've been busy with these again...they're little squares of vintage fabrics double sided sticky tapes into aperture cards!

I've been making lots of crochet flowers...I designed the flowers myself and used mostly vintage yarn to make them, I made the buttons from salt dough and painted them too!  I also made some butterflies and added sequins and beads to the wings!







c&c welcome

I lady I know is opening a shop and asked me to make some of these for her to sell...they're just long strips of crochet joined together, I used aran or dk wool doubled up, with flowers added on...simple but I like the way they turned out!

Helloo!! This is my first time posting on this board (I usually post on the crochet one!)

Last night I got busy with the double sided sticky tape and made these from aperture cards and vintage fabric!  I think they came out pretty nifty!

I made these for my mum for christmas, they're just freehanded and filled with lavender instead of stuffing....we call these knicker mice in our house, cos they like to live in underwear drawers and make your pants smell nice!

I made this little yoda for my brother for christmas...I think he was bemused by it!  Oh well 

I made this for my brother's girlfriend for christmas..she really liked it  

It's from the Japanese flower pattern featured on the blog Attic24 (http://attic24.typepad.com/weblog/2011/02/japanese-flower-scarf.html), theres a link to the chart in that post and I worked the pattern out from that (I also discovered this photo tutorial, http://revlie.typepad.com/revolution/2011/06/japanese-flower-tutorial-picture-by-picture-you-can-do-this.html once I'd finished making my scarf, while I was looking for something else...typical isn't it!)

Hellooo, this is my first time posting on this board (I usually crochet stuff!) but I've been making tote bags like this since I was in secondary school...this ones made from a 70's bedspread...I made it a little too long...I wish it was shorter, but it might be useful if I have something really long to carry!

I made this poppy from the pattern here, http://craftylion.blogspot.com/2009/11/free-crochet-poppy.html (I think I miscounted or did something wrong, mines a bit wonky!) I never know what to do with my paper poppy once remembrance day's over, so I will just be able to reuse this one every year now (I still made a donation!)
