I heart Texas
Two dear friends got married this past weekend outside of Austin, Texas. To commemorate their union, and celebrate how great Texas is, I made them a throw pillow. The pillow case has an envelope closure and is made out of osnaburg fabric (leftover from my chair slipcover project) and wool-blend felt.

Felt hair bow
One of my friends got Vera the cutest little hair bows from Creative Kiddos on Etsy.
I was inspired to recreate one and give as a birthday gift to one of Vera's friends. Vera kindly took time out of her busy play schedule to model it for me.
Materials:
wool-blend felt
4 1/2" piece of 3/8" wide grosgrain ribbon
metal hair clip
hot glue
I won't go in to the details of how I made it since it's not my design, but I have included some close-up photos. It took a few tries to get the shape right but once I figured out the pattern it came together quickly.

Miniature Garden Party
I've been wanting to make a miniature garden (also called a fairy garden) for a while now. Who can resist tiny lawn furniture and itty-bitty watering cans? Then I thought, hey, why not have a party and invite my friends to come make miniature gardens with me?
I purchased most of the containers at thrift stores and the garden decor from Ebay and Factory Direct Craft Supply. I made the mushrooms out of Sculpey polymer clay and the twig fences from twigs I gathered from the yard and a bit of wire.
I also printed out information cards for each of the guests.
The party was a lot of fun and all the gardens turned out so cute!
Want to throw your own miniature garden party? Let me know and I'll create a customized invitation package, emailed to you as a printable PDF, for just $4.99!
