Busy...



I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed the Sustainable Gift giving workshop last week.  I took some time to poke around Cochrane this weekend, as well as the Art Market at the Telus convention Centre.  Loved the preloved furs at the Enchanted booth, as well as Natalie Gerber's creations, especially the vest.  Then got busy making some Tea Towel Totes, Small Tie Rose pins and barrettes, reused some photo envelopes to create CD covers, and made some Tie Pocket pouches, perfect for your phone or other small items.  The new crop of creations will be at Green Calgary tomorrow afternoon.  Have a great week.

Fun with Paper

This week was about creating with paper.  First I made a bunch of medallions from old security envelopes for holiday packages.  This idea came from the scissor variations blog.  I then made some bows from magazines before they hit the recycling bin. I saw the instructions for these on How about Orange.

It was a fairly busy week with the last Shabby Chic class, soccer and First Night at Art Central.  This week end home to get to Make it show and sale at the Chinese Cultural Centre. Then hope to get some pj's and sandwich wraps cut out.  Cheers!!!
