Handmade Stick Pins

We crafters buy so many embellishments and they are sooooo costly. Stick pins are one of them. I thought why not make some myself and I came up with some matching stick pins for my projects. See what I made with some beads and wire :-)

Tissue box

I had made this tissue box looooong time back and the technique I had used was “decoupage”. I kept in my car for so many years and the sunlight faded the red colour of hearts. Heart turned from red to pink to cream to white in colour. It was time to revamp my tissue box.  Since it’s made up of MDF, I could use it again. See what I came up with :)

This is what happened to my tissue box due to long exposure to sunlight

Looking at the results, now I don’t want to keep this in my car (will be heart broken it this gets discoloured :lol: )

Hope you like it.

Baby album for a boy

 

 

Let me show you what I was working on for the past few days… A baby album :D

 

I had to make it for a boy (it’s always difficult for me to make anything for a male gender ;) ) but apparently this has come out well ;) . Have a look…

First Inner page… a baby over-all which holds tags when opened :)

Tags held in diaper :D (loved this one!)

image

A page for a picture and baby’s hand prints :)

image

Another picture and a milk bottle… holds a tag :)

image

The bottle comes out of its case to put the details of the baby … another one of my fav from this album :)

image

Another picture place and place for baby’s foot prints :)

image

A peek-a-boo picture place and two baby tags held in bath-tub :)

Loved the way the bath-tub turned out :)

 

Hope you like this album. Will update other projects soon. Stay tuned! :)

Birthday Invites for Pre-teen Girls

It was Cub’s birthday a few days back. I was skeptical to hold another huge party with some 20 pre-teen girls running here n there. Thankfully Cub agreed to invite a few selected friends and so I too could make some special invites for them.

Have a look, from inception to final product. Hope girls liked it.
