Gift Exchange Bag

I was invited to a gift exchange party by a neighbor and am supposed to bring a gift valued at about $20...since we're broke, I made this! It is felted -- chocolate brown and the pink is not quite so HOT as in the photo...the stripes continue around the back and the flap closes with a single center snap. Hope people will like it...

skullie scarf -- tangled up in blue


who would have guessed the skullie scarf would be such a hit? here is my latest version, i love the blue...it's really more of a peacock blue and really pretty. i'm still planning on posting a pic of the original skullie hat -- hopefully soon!

Purple Princess Purses

Not the best photo, but you get the idea. These are a pair of purses that two lucky toddlers will be receiving as Christmas gifts. Every princess needs a purple fuzzy purse! ($20 each). Have you stopped by Mode Boutique yet? If not, head on over: 45 N University Ave, Provo UT.

Skullie Set -- Part 1

This is the scarf part of a scarf/hat set that was custom ordered. Mad props to my hubby for the hook-up. I think I will have the hat finished tonight and then post the pic of that as well. Oh so cute and stylish -- my buddy Ross informed me that "skulls are in" and by "in" he means in Bloomies...I'm so hip on the current trends. Actually, I just like skulls and I'm pretty proud of this because I figured out the little skullie applique all by myself. :) Props to Liz too, for having good taste.

Logo a gogo!

Here is my lovely logo that my sweet and talented husband made for me! It's girly and cute and I LOVE IT! He promised me a butched-up version to go on my men's hats and scarves, but for now, all my purses will have this cute little attatched card! Today I will ship out all 5 bags to Mode -- I decided that I need to keep the cammo bag for myself! It's just too cute to let go, but I can happily make other felted bags if anyone out there wants one! I am working on two commissions right now (thanks, ladies!) -- a clutch and a hat/scarf set with a new, cute skull applique detail.

Felted Cammo Bag

my first attempt at felting! i love the way it turned out -- sort of a hip, yet sophisticated version of camoflauge. i will be adding a short shoulder strap.

Hat & Scarf Set -- It's all about ME!

i needed a green hat & scarf to match my coat. also, since i love my orange hat so much, i wanted another color. now i want more! i ran out of yarn, so i added the light green trim and detail.

close up of leaf motif. the little bobble was my first attempt at a button, but i made it a bit large -- i decided it was just cute and the leaves needed something else. i had already completed the criss-cross scarf, so i added the green stripe detailing and crocheted a bobble button to fasten it around my neck.

Raspberry & Ribbons

Here is a raspberry-colored clutch (picture here is not accurate color). It's a really pretty maroon-red with a fuschia undertone. The ribbon is a candy pink.


And the lining...
