Butterfly wall hanging

My MDF butterfly completed, a simply project. Covered in paper distressed and inked round the edges. Picked up a bargain from Coleman's a packet of Tim holtz chains which also holds my little dome of sewing bits.

A completed project

Okay so it's a kids kit but purchased and completed in less than a week. It's good to start small quick and easy.

The first post of 2015

And its some old news!

Tom built this fabulous folly in our little garden all materials reclaimed from local reclaimation yards and good old Ebay.

What I orginally asked for was a secret door in the garden so here it is inside the folly.  Tom handmade it from oak beams and yes it also opens. He really enjoyed this project and who knows what he does in the garden this year?

Quiet but busy

 Yet another long ago purchase that has been waiting to be done. They may be gifts but not sure!

1st attempt

  Brought the fancy shaped clock board from the pound man along time ago and when I saw this technique demo at the Hobbycraft show last month I knew this is what I wanted to try it on. Happy with it but I might need to be braver in using more of the metallic wax. TFL
