3d Strawberry Pot Silhouette Cutter

Another little Potted plant to cheer up a cold day.

I’ll have mine with clotted cream thank you.

These a so fun to make, even the terracotta pot is made from card.

A closer look at the plant.

As you can see I dotted the strawberry’s with a white pen for the little pips.

The template is from Jamie Moore Cripps on the Silhouette store.

Crochet Baby Giraffe

just cant get enough of making these little sets.

This time it is a baby giraffe hat and diaper cover.

Love the ears on this one.

Even better is that they make up so quickly, they are all done on large crochet hooks.

Happily Ever After Vinyl Word Art

I had some wood left over from another project and thought this would make a beautiful gift.

So lets get Started step by step

• I painted the dark base coat and let it dry
• Next add a generous amount of PVA glue.

• Brush the glue all over the surface of the wood in an even layer
• Wait a couple of minutes so that the glue is just starting to set then paint over the top with the light shade of paint. Make sure you paint in lots of different directions.

• You need to use a heat gun all over the surface before the paint dries. I tend to be painting as I am using the heat gun, roughly 4 inches ahead.
• Direct the heat gun in one place until you see the crackles appear. (this doesn’t take long) Move the heat gun to a new spot to start the crackles.

• As you can see it makes a really vintage look to the wood.
• I used the Silhouette Cutter to cut out some wording from sign vinyl.

Now to finish off the project

Once dried I added the sign vinyl wording and cut out some foliage and a flower using the Silhouette cutter and added them to the top.

I intend added some hooks to the bottom of this project so that it can be used as a key keeper.

A close up of the flower, you can probably see that once the project was put together I sprayed it with Crafter Companion Pearl spray for a touch of luxury.

Heart Wreath Silhouette Portrait

I bought this wicker heart in the sale at Sainsbury’s and new that I would be able to spruce it up using my Silhouette cutter.

Crochet Ladybug and Busy Bee

I also have been a busy bee and got some more crochet done, a little ladybird and a busy bee for babies photo props.

First up is the Ladybird hat and bum cover.

Such fun will be had photographing newborns wearing these.

next up is the Busy Bee set, this one has a sting in it’s tail.

I know many of you wonder where I get the patterns, truth is they are either free ones or I make them up I think I got the ladybird one from Ravely
