The finishing touch!

I found the perfect cardboard box to hold the bottle and finish it off in style! I had lots of fun with paper mache! I used music sheet paper first, then finished with old dress making-pattern tissue paper!! It looks so effective! Gives it that vintagey feel! I love the tissue paper over the top as it has black stitching marks and arrows all over it! Just perfect for the finishing touch!!

Message in a bottle

Next I found a bottle! Filled it with pink beads!
Stuck gems round the bottle! Tied ribbon around the neck and added the heart tag! So girly and so fun!
I printed the beautiful message onto an old blank book page which really gave it that oldy woldy feel! 
Was so so pleased with how it turned out!

Message in a bottle

So I made the card! The next job was the pressi! A message in a bottle....
This is what I started off with! A felt bag to hold the bottle! Purple is the best colour in the world! So luxurious!

A sparkly birthday!

I love making cards! So I was so pleased to be asked by a dear friend to make a special one! 
I love to finish pieces off with sparkly gems! I think I am a bit obsessed with them but its what makes it!

A little bit of LOVE

I hope everyone likes it! 
xXx * Spread the Love * xXx
Lots of Love Tania xXx

A first for everything!


I made this handheld mirror out of felt and beads! Was so fun!! I think I am getting a little bit obsessed with felt and the blanket stitch he he! As it's for my aunties birthday I decided to sew her birth date into the back too!! 
Can't wait until she opens it! Hope she likes it!
Love Tania xXx

And with a little bit of magic...

Oh and an oven! Hey presto my bowl is born! 
Shame the Oliver record had to die he he!
Its not perfect but not bad for a first attempt!

Love Tania xXx
