The Crafty Corner

[xxxjacxxx]

PLEASE NO SELF ADVERTISING AS WE DONT WANT TO BREAK BNB'S RULES ON THIS THIS THREAD IS FOR SHOWING OFF YOUR CREATIONS AND ASKING FOR ADVICE ONLY

I thought I'd make a thread for all of us crafty people to share ideas, pictures, and ask for advice!

So if you like to be 'crafty' in any way at all, this is the place to come!

I'll start....Ive been making childrens bean bags for a while now but have recently started making wet bags for nappies and wipes I want to add to this soon but I find there are not enough hours in the day!!

ok piccies of my 'creations'

I GOT RID OF THE ENGLAND ONES!!

I do them on both prams I have.. M&P Pliko Pramette and Petite Star Zia.
Two of my friends have brought their buggy round for the night and the fabric they wanted and I covered the buggy for them and dropped it back the next day.
Each one takes about 11 hours to do!




this is mylos head rest cushion i made out of an old pillowcase
cos i was fed up of his head falling forward when he fell asleep in the car and they were a tenna on ebay!

hey those paintings are cool!!


I have spent the last2 days making cakes for Mylo!! and his birthday tomorrow!!

Well here is his GUEST BOOK for his christening next sunday and I decided to make an activity birthday card for him so its personal rather than buying one. AND he can play with it! haha (briefly!)

Wow, these are all great.

Jac, you're so talented.

Tsia, I love you're pimped prams. I think a handmade card for Mylo's birthday is a lovely idea. I may have a go for Kate's, although last time I made her a picture it ended up being a very evil looking gingerbread man.

Miss Muffet your paintings are lovely. They would look lovely in a childs bedroom.

I'm working on Kate's nursery at the moment. I want to do this https://www.bugs-n-blooms.com/pages/Decorating-A-Nursery.htm so I'm off to Hobbycraft tomorrow.

And here's one I made earlier (2 years earlier, I forgot to order my table plan so had to make one myself)


And the candles for the tables (excuse my messy bed, it was made this morning but I've been sat on it for a while.)

 

[BlackBerry25]

I bought some awesome fabric today, I am so excited to get crafting!

 

[New2Bumps]

Hi Ladies!
I'm about to start making a big u cushion for use while Ethan is still not trusted without cushions sitting up!!! Also want to make some bandana bibs and a wetbag for his trunks when we go swimming! Phew! Need to learn how to properly use the sewing machine I think!
Do you ladies know if shower curtain fabric is okay to line a wet bag or do I need pul (off ebay?)

 

[xpinkness87x]

Hello I make jewellery and all sorts. I will upload piccies later as we have friends coming for lunch in a bit xx

 

[MiissMuffet]

Can't wait to see piccies x

 

[Raggydoll]

Ooh Pinkness, you've just reminded me to look at your website, I've been using my phone for the past few days so now I can see it properly.

New2bumps I think shower curtain material will be fine for the wet bag.

 

[Tsia]

ooh I make jewellery too.. and fascinators.. just for myself tho.. not for a business or anything.. sometimes for gifts for friends tho.

 

[xpinkness87x]

Im dumb what are fascinators?

 

[pink23]

Pinkness, a fascinator is a fancy head piece https://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-Stat...um=organic&utm_campaign=google_product_search Kind of like this.
