80th Birthday - Family Album



This is some if the pages from the family album I handmade for my mother-in -laws 80th birthday. I love the colours of the papers, I got the album, papers and the bits & pieces I used for it from my favorite shop Crafters & Co.







I used lots of chip board shapes on the album, I used perfect pearls on the flourishes on these pages of their wedding photo which was over 50 years ago.





I used the technique, triple embossing with a stamp on the flowres, then I used brads with crystals in the centres.




This is a photo of my husband on holidays many years ago aaahhhhh.... I used two different colours of paint to distress the edges of the pages, I also used lots of glitter & ribbon.






I also decorated the back of the album.



I know it has been a while since my last post but I have been trying hard to get my tiara & jewellery website up and running, hopefully not too long to go now.

I will put a link on from here when its ready.

Bead Chip Bracelets


Back again, I made these bracelets for the teacher and the classroom assistant yesterday and I thought you might like to look at them.



I used an organza bag to put them in. I added some ribbon and fibers to the thank you tags then stitched them to the bag so the bag could be opened and closed.





I liked them sooo much I just HAD to make one for myself to lol...




Each bracelet has been made with semi perishes chips and coordinating beads all from Crafters & Co.

Crocheted Cuff


This is a crocheted cuff I have made for a girl that is going to a wedding on Saturday. It has been made to match a two tone silk dress.


I have used a champagne coloured wire and toggle as this is the colour of her shoes.

Then I thought I should make her matching earrings but I don't even know if she has her ears pearsed.

That is me for a couple of weeks. I am away on holidays on Friday!!!!!!

Mini Scrapbook


This is the first Maya Roads mini scrapbook I made in a class a few years ago at Crafters & Co and I still have no photos in it lol...





I have taken just a few photos of the pages for you to look at that I like best. This page could be used for Memories or Mum.





I like the colours that has been used in class because I will be able to put in photos of ether man, woman or children.





I seem to like the pages that have some pink on them best.

This lariat necklace and earrings were commissioned by a lady who already had her bracelet and she asked me to do something with the rest of the daisy's. This is what we came up with. What do you think?

All In A Name

Little did I know, when my sister helped me to think of an name for my blog that I would like it so much that I thought it would make a great name for a website!!!

An outlet where I could sell my Tiaras & Trinkets. I was getting very excited about the idea of sharing my creations for others to enjoy.

I have been trying to get a new website up and running since last year but I have had so many problems that I will have to find another website designer. So it may be a few months yet before I can sell Tiaras & Trinkets on line.

This is why it has been so long since my last post, sorry.


Here are a few of the birthday cards I have made for my son.
