I definitely don't think these need a mature tag but whatevs.

These are pretty awesome! I'm torn between thinking that I'd like a finished cap on the end and thinking that they are pretty perfect the way they are. I know lots of folks that could pull these off every day but I think I would have to limit it to costumes a faires. I'm afraid I'd get a little tired one day and nod off, wake up and think something was attacking me, then rip my ear off trying to "defend myself".

Beautiful work!

This arrived a while back but unfortunately I was not here to receive it   I was in the middle of tornado cleanup in Central Arkansas and completely forgot about the swap until my husband called me to tell me that a package arrived. Thankfully, I have a very understanding partner and now that I've seen what she sent me... well... she is amazing and I hope she isn't disappointed by what I made her!

Anyway, onto the photos!



this is a picture of the handmade box along with the extras that didn't fit inside. The beads! I LOVE THE BEADS! There is a little bead that looks like corn and I have JUST the project for it!



This is a closeup of the amazingly drawn cover. I am completely in love!



The insides!!! I have no idea how she got all of that to fit! There are 3 twilight guitar picks, a handmade pendant (underneath the skillet, next to the flowers) a wire ring, a stag charm, a strawberry patch, clothespin, cute little skillet, and shiny sequinesque flowers.

Thank you, Strawberryh!!!

OOoh!
I adore the ladybug! Is that ribbon dotted like that when you find it?!

What fun these all are!

Thanks! I got the ribbon at hobby lobby and it already had the black dots on it.

I started making these for my daughter so I thought I'd share!

That is awesome! Excellent job.

Very nice!  He would scare the glitter out of me if I stumbled upon him in the beginning stages, but the finished elf is so adorable!

Thanks, guys!  Most of the wreaths we've done have been for kids/toddlers, so I was probably still in a baby mindset   I'll replace the shoelace ribbon asap and try to add some more embellishments (plus photograph on a different background so you can see the pendant at the bottom)

I was afraid to make it too cluttered but after looking at it again, I think it's too bare.

I'm so glad that you left such great advice!

My friend and I just started making fabric wreaths and I'm looking for a little feedback.
This is our first completed embellished wreath and it's targeted for an emo/scene kid.




If you like it, let me know. If you hate it, let me know what you hate. If you are indifferent then just say hi!

*UPDATE*

Thanks for the feedback, I made a few changes and want to see what you think.

I can't decide if I'm done with it or not... it seems unbalanced. Maybe I should collage the table part as well?

I love the second Noro Kureyon pair. Is the diamond thing a pattern or just the way it looks before it's felted (sorry if that's a dumb question).

I also really love the striped pair that you made for your friend. They are super cute and look like they will be very warm.
