made = iphone Case

Just to prove that I am a serious Pinner

(in other words I actually attempt stuff that I pin on Pinterest), 

BEHOLD:

DIY by Bee-inspired

My version

 I made this as a present for my father's day gift.  

I added an emroidered monogramme - he's called Brian hence the B.

It's not as polished as the original as it is hand sewn and I turned it inside out after hemming the sides as my stitching wasn't as neat as I'd have liked.

Another difference is I mistakenly bought a jean-like button rather than a popper and had no time to go back to the shop, so I had to create a button hole on the strap which took a while.

He loved it!

Felt Flower Bouquet

This was something I made for my mum at Easter.

I haven't written a step by step guide but it's colourful and fun thing to make and perfect to lift your spirits on a drizzly tuesday evening!

Here they are individually.

Simple and bright

A great alternative to a tired petrol station bunch

DIY = strawberry bookmark

Sometime ago I share a step by step guide to making these little strawberry badge beauties. 

I had a couple left over and thought, why not make a stylish bookmark with it!

Here's how - it's a piece of pee-pee:

Get your pre-made strawberry badge and a length of binding or ribbon.

Hot glue the badge onto a piece of binding. You could sew it if you prepare.

Now allow it to beautifully adorn a lucky book.
