Something For The Teacher

The next three photos are of the gifts I made for my son's teacher and helpers at the end of last term.

Sorry the photos are not great (probably rushing!!!!!!!!! )

Handbag Charm & Kilt Pin

On this handbag charn I have used a pack of Dress it up beads, head pins, chain and charms, from Crafters & Co. I do love the colours in this handbag charm.




This is a kilt pin I made to match the jumper that it has been photographed on. It is made with a mix of beads, head pins, chain and a couple of charms.

Two Weddings In One Week

After being "weddingless" for about eight years two came along in the same month. My husbands best mate invited us to his daughters wedding and then the following week we were invited to our neighbours wedding. I then set about making jewellery for the occasions. This is the necklace I made to go with my black beaded dress. It was made with head pins and a tub of Viking Loom beads from Crafters & Co and others in my stash.





This is the bracelet and earrings. I made them to go on one earring but they were to big. So I ended up with one pair for each wedding lol..........

Mothers Day Gift

After making the tag card and the photo cube I decided to use the same papers, (because I liked them so much) for my mother-in-laws mothers day card. I also used chipboard flowers.

Then I made her a necklace to match the paper lol........ I put it in a little pre scored bag ,all I had to do was fold, stick and add ribbon handles. (sorry not a great photo)

90th Photo Cube

This photo cube is what I made for my hubby's auntie for her 90th birthday a few weeks ago . It is made with basic grey papers called bitter sweet from Crafters & Co.

This is a tag card, I got the design from Crafters & Co. I made it in the same paper as the photo cube.

18th Birthday present

This is photos of my niece's 18th birthday present. I made a long necklace, bracelet and earrings to match. I used small silver square and round beads, large silver swirls and round beads with a pack of Dress it up beads and some seed beads all from Crafters & Co.

Then I wondered what to put them in, so I made an exploding box.........

..... I attached the necklace to the inside lid of the box with ribbon so it would come out when she lifted it.

I used my craft robo shape cutter to cut out the number 18. These are a few more close ups of the embellishments on the exploding box.

I used matching brads on these two, and added some seed beads to punched out flower
