New Felt Brooch

I always love sitting down with felt, buttons, beads & embroidery floss.

These goodies lend any day such a wonderful & delightful coziness.

So I've been indulging in such days and making some new felt lovelies.

Here's one I just finished up...

 

Isn't it just the sweetest?

It looks great on a black bag or purse especially.

If you interested in snapping it up before it's adorning someone else's wardrobe,

See you on Sunday.



Another New Felt & Beaded Brooch

Just hopping in today to show you all another felt and beaded brooch I recently made...

 I just organized a nice big toolbox for my beads, felt and stitchery goodies so I can just grab the box and get to work wherever and whenever the mood strikes me....usually it's during movies I just can't get into but still want to 'watch' or when my sweets wants to watch one of his gory zombie flicks. 

Today however my fingers are itching to work with coloured pencils, I have several pieces on the go and I am anxious to finish at least one of them and my back is feeling better...so I am off to do just that.

Have a wonderfully cozy day.

We're a little off schedule this week, so I'll be seeing you all again on Saturday.

White Bunny Brooch

I just have to say,

Thanks so so much...

Thanks, to all of you lovelies who have been joining me here on my blog in the last few weeks. 

It still amazes me, all of the lovely friendships and connections with people from all over the world

that I've made because of this blog of mine....what a joy, a surprise and an honor.

I do put lots of work into this blogspot of mine, and I do take alot of pride in it. 

I can't tell you how much your visits and continual kind comments and support mean.

It all means the world, and I thank you all oodles.

Okay, I am done gushing...and wanted to hop in to show you another felt brooch I recently made.

What do you think?

Is it sweet?

Do you think it's worthwhile to list them in my Etsy shop??

I was planning to, I just wanted all of your opinions...

Yesterday I picked all of the tomatoes in the garden and chopped the plants down for the
compost heap...it was a pretty good harvest and I can't wait to grow more next summer.
Today the agenda includes:
Coloured pencils outside with a big pot of peppermint tea
as Ella Luna and Roo romp about the leaf covered yard...
and likely I'll have a hot water bottle or two with me since I am nursing a
tender head from 3 previously awful headache plagued days, ugh!
The last couple of weeks Jon and I have been nursing nasty persistant colds as well
so I feel like I am still recoup-ing from that as well,
some time in the autumn sun will be just what the doctor orders I think...
Perhaps a bowl of lentil soup and some cucumbers grown in our garden will accompany me as well...

p.s. Join me here on Wednesday for some favourite shots from a summer biking adventure.

Bird On Flower Brooch

I woke up and looked out the window to see grey skies and bright yellow leaves doing a lovely spiral dance around each other as thy floated to the ground...ahhhh, it's feeling like a very cozy day.

The perfect day to show you another felt brooch I just finished up.

Isn't it sweet sweet sweet...
I conjured up several designs in the summer & it feels great to see them come to life.
I am having so much fun with them and they let me indulge in my felt obsession.
They don't have to be worn, one could put them in a frame as lovely little originals.

On the agenda today:  
Tend to a very sore head
Get a coloured pencil finished up (Which I can't wait to show you)
Finish up a smaller 2nd image which just needs a smidge of paint added
Make a big pot of cabbage soup
tidy my forever messy house
but mostly...
the plan is to sit on the floor working on another felt brooch besides 4 sweet sweet sweet bunnies.

Hope your having a great day...thanks for hopping by.
