accessorizing your home with pictures


i got some photo frames from wilkionson's (80p for 3) and i had some hoilday books hanging about, i guess you could go get some if u dont have any or just use a nice looking mag. any i found some pictiers that i liked the look of cut them out and put them in to the frames they look really nice more expensive looking then 80p. i did paint the frames with some paint i had hanging about but (most ppl do right?) i just thought id post it up as my sister said its something she would never have thought of. there not yet up on the walls but u get the idea

Stitch has MORE new clothes , and a lucky sock cat.




My book came (stray sock sewing by daniel) its such a cute book! and the step by step sock monsters are so easy to understand. Not like another sock book I could mention, but I wont that would be rude. Any way I dived in to it making this lucky cat. His name is yen.




And then I was working on a new cardi for stitch, only when it was done she didn’t have any clothes that matched, so I made her this dress its up-sized form this Barbie pattern http://www.janelwashere.com/crafts/doll_patterns.htm. im really pleased with it. (That is the fabric im think of making cushion’s with by the way) its not made perfect but I love the way it looks so she might get another few in different fabrics. Then I might start thinking human size lol.

Im thinking maybe spud should have a matching tie?

I started him about 4-5 weeks ago but every time I went to work on him something would happen. But never mind he is hear now. Just in time I ordered some books off amazon to make more stuffy’s. Plushorama and one stray sock im raelly looking forward to the delivery. ‘Bunny’ has quite a few mistakes in him but I have learn a lot making him im gonna try making another one as a gift for Christmas. MUST STEAL MORE JEANS!!
I also went and brought some skirts from a charity shop I love the fabric im thinking maybe pillows? Its my birthday on the 27th so hoping I get something nice and handmade. I have finised painting the living room a nice wine red, but I haven’t took any photos. Wouldn’t believe how much paint it took.
