Feathers Feathers Feathers!

You Gotta Try This!

So I don't usually post tutorials on my site, but I had to share this one! The other evening I made these fabric wall decal frames. I found the perfect place on a

skinny wall that really serves no purpose!

I thought I'd share a couple of non-jewelry/hair projects I have been working on. This is the arrangement over my bed. I wanted something that took up the whole wall because my bed is not centered on wall. I repurposed 3 odd rectangular canvases in the middle. I covered one in burlap and attached a modge podged J, another in burlap with a birdie on a branch and the other painted with a doily. I love odd and ends so I attached some keys to canvases I found in the Michaels discount section. I found a door knob on sale at hobby lobby (but I think I hung it upside down!) My great grandmother made the large doily and my mother had it in a trunk for years. So I lightly modge podged it to a painted canvas. I also threw in some buttons because they are a must in practically every project I do! I made the large button fleur about a year ago and placed little button on a couple of the other pieces.

Fun in February!

Last weekend was a cold one here in Louisiana, and the perfect time to catch up on some crafting! A trendy fabric flower bib necklace and matching headband! And a personal favorite is the mixed gemstone necklace :) Let me know if you need pricing info!

Cute As A Button!

This weekend some friends and I hosted a "Cute As A Button" baby shower for my sister Sarah. I am sure you all know by now that I love buttons! So this one was especially fun for me!! These are the pictures from my camera and as soon as I have my hands on everyone's pictures I will post them!!
