Ooddles of doodles

I willlllll get up and be productive today he he! 

I think I need to go and get some fresh air and pop to the shops to cook Dave and I a nice big tea for tonight! 

Shepherds Pie I think tonight! 

But just before I get up I thought I would share another Etsy shop with you! 

Quite a local shop to me here infact!

In this shop you get to be part of 'Vickys' creative little World which is full of handmade cards, textiles and illustrations! 

These cards have to be my favourite! They have a lovely story about how they started life as images in a sketchbook, which has now gone Worldwide on a tour!

Go and check out this lovely quirky shop!

Rocket card!

Hello

Oh by the way 

this was the Valentine's card I made for Dave!  

It was an idea I had whilst lying in bed, lying in the dark! 

I love ideas that come from my 

pillow! 

Thought it was cute being able to move the rocket he he 

a little bit of sillyness! 

That's what Valentine's is all about though hey! 

Fun and giggles!

Hope you like!

Love Tania xXx

Goodbye

Handmade goodies!

My thread is always getting knotted up! 

The wooden necklace is lovely! With the little tea bag hanging out its adorable! 

Have a good afternoon

Lazy dayssssssss

Hello
He he he he so I am still in bed! 
Well deserved lazyness though! 
Been a busy month with work! 
But this is giving me the chance to catch up on my Etsy shop too.  Sadly having full time work means that I can't spend as much time as I'd like on Etsy or making my crafts, but whenever possible I do squeeze it in! 
The picture above shows new brooches that were only half done until last week!  
If you ask any artist, they will tell you that they all have something, be it a painting, a pot or a dress that they have starting making and never got round to finishing! Well I have a whole suitcase full of bits and the other day I decided that I needed to start finishing them! 
So heres a selection of finished pieces!
Hope you like them!
They will all be going onto Etsy soon!
Love Tania xXx

Personal guitar wall hanging

Hello

Hope you are having a good weekend! 

I have been out enjoying the sun today!  

A good walk does the world of good!  

Skipton is full of hills though, I think I may need to buy some walking boots....ha ha ha ha 

you can take the girl out of the City but you can't take the City out of the girl he he!

Heres the pressi that I made for Dave for Valentine's day!  

I've had the idea for ages!  

It worked out perfectly with Dave buying a new guitar on Monday!  

I wanted to make something personal so I collaged the wood with all bands and things that Dave loves!  

He loved it! 

I was surprised whilst searching for unusual wall hangings that there  weren't many on the market!  

One other idea I had was to make the wood into a shape like a retro pac-man etc! 

Maybe I should have a go at making some and adding them to my shop!  Another project idea of mine lol.  

I'm sure I make new projects for myself everyday he he.

I guess thats what you get for being crafty hey!

Love Tania xXx

Goodbye

Evening!

Hello 

well after a lovely evening of lovely chinese food with a lovely lady! I am finally in bed and I think I am finally warming up!

It's sooooo cold outside! I could do with some cuddles tonight! 

Here's a late little find from Etsy!

LittleBirdHouse 

Take a look at the ornate pieces that are all handmade showing lots of care and attention. 

This particular piece caught my eye 

but there are lots of lovely pieces including art which is made from paper and fabric layers which uses individually hand cut up-cycled words taken from books!  This is a technique I am very familiar with and love to do myself!

Goodnight sleep tight 

xXx
