Soft Cotton

I made these little booties a while ago now.
They are made from soft cotton yarn (for summer), which doesn't hold its shape as well as wool or acrylic but the end result is still super cute.

We're heading down to the Mediterranean today for the Easter long weekend.
I think it's still far too chili for me to get in the water but hopefully I'll be able to catch some sun and take the winter white glow off my skin.

See you Monday.

Pink Frangapani Booties

Today I've been working on these very cute pink booties.
Their design is based on one of Mamachee brilliant patterns, which I've altered with a big flower buckle ... I think it looks like a pink Frangapani.

Fanciful tree earrings

These little earrings are new to my etsy shop today.

Last week I received a package of really gorgeous brass trinkets
... so lots of new designs coming.

New Earrings

They have been added to my etsy shop today.


Also some cute little owl earrings.

my creative space ...

I've been doing a little bit of embroidery.
It's very simple but I think it gives the right effect for these honey bee earrings.
The green stitch is to go with some very cute owl charms.

red white blue

I made these booties on request in the colours of the Atletico Madrid football team.
It's funny because I'm pretty much the opposite to a football enthusiast ...
but I love the idea and they turned out very cute.

Some spring flowers to put in your hair

spring

Over the weekend we had the first glimpse of spring with lots of sun shine :)
Our tiny little window sill garden is preparing to seed.

My Creative Space ...

This is part of an idea I've been tossing around in my head for a while.
I want to make my own resin cabochons, inspired by these little birds.
I've jumped ahead a bit and made some molds, now I have to do some illustrations.
It's taken a while to get to this point, so I'm thinking it's going to be a while until a take the next step, I'm also a little bit apprehensive about using the resin
... will see how it goes.

Wild Orange

I think this is my favorite necklace out of the wild bird collection with the brown chested sparrow a close second.

I'm feeling a bit frustrated today as I'm having trouble focusing on any one thing.
My head is in a few places ... working on my catalogue so it's in both English & Spanish, trying to get my etsy shop going, wanting to be a more active blogger, making in all my spare moments and doing bits and pieces of architecture work.
All of this is lots of fun but sometimes I just wish there were more hours in the day.

Turquoise & Pink

The suns been shining a lot more lately and I've been able to take some photos.

This is part of the bird pendant collection with matching earrings.
They will be available in my etsy shop soon.

Old Favorites

The Syrian Loops were one of my first designs and are still my favorites.
The most popular ones have been in the bright summery colours but for me I can't go past black (I think the architect coming out in me) and this beautiful grey thread.

I've been slowly building up my collection of Syrian Loops for summer and have added this pair to my etsy shop today ... more to come.

Tropical Summer Earrings

These are some new earrings made with yesterdays covered buttons.

Buttons

Yesterday I received a small bag of beautiful liberty off cuts and this morning I've been having so much fun with them!

Honey Blue Earrings

These are some new earrings I finished last week.
They are to match with the honey bird necklace.
