New old pretty wallpaper

Thank you ETSY!  I've received some real goodies in the mail recently including these beautiful pieces of vintage wallpaper. I have been looking at these so often but what to make with them???? I'd love an old cupboard type thing or a small display cabinet to use these papers on. Something where they can shine and be in the limelight....I'll just have to keep trawling the op shops :)

Baby dragon

Hellooo...I'm back from my blogging mini-break! It wasn't a break by choice, but isn't it a pain when life just gets in the way of the fun stuff? Anyway, great to be back in the creative zone and I have managed to hook up something at least.

This little baby dragon is so cute, I couldn't resist when I found this pattern. He only took an afternoon to make, which is great, I love it when I can FINISH something since I am the queen of WIP's, lol.

 

Baby fangs!

 

Looking forward to catching up with my fave blogs now, so much talent and inspiration out there.

Happy Easter!

I hope everybody had a lovely long weekend and enjoyed a hot cross bun or two and maybe a few choccy eggs, or more than a few ;)

**WARNING! Photo heavy blog post!**

 

 Ooooh, the fun you can have with an egg carton...this one I have been saving for ages for this very specific purpose!

A handmade crochet bunny cupcake for a special little person. And I think we all love these little chicks.

Amineko Cat

I have made my first Amineko Cat! He has been in the works for awhile, so close to being finished then I got distracted and left him in a pile of bits...but last night I stitched him together,gave him a cute face and now here he is!

 

 

What a cutie-pie, gee I love him so much already :)

Crochet obsession....much!

Crochet is taking over my life! No day is complete without a bit of 'hooky' time and the following photos are just a few of the things I've made recently. Not to mention the amigurumi cat I have had laying around with no legs for the past month....no we couldn't have photos of him on here, noooooo!

 Little frames from an old Mollie Makes, can also be found  here at Lola Nova.

A little heart from this pattern.

The beginnings of a new cushion....to continue my pastel makeover.

 A cute cupcake made from here. The flower was another Mollie Makes pattern. 

This weekend I have plans for some fabric fun, I really need to sew again after such a big break....and my home looks as if it has been yarn bombed, which I suppose it has!

Happy creating xxx

Happy Owl

Who doesn't love owls? They are everywhere these days, but why not! Here is a happy little chap that I made over the weekend from Bunny Mummy's pattern  and he is now flying his way to my Mam in law in Ireland. I will have to make more, because I want one now haha...if I had babies I think they could become a great mobile hanging from a branch, maybe with a cloud or two as well!
