Crochet Doll Accessories

Hello,

Today sharing are all about doll.  My daughter, Faye,  is finally got her first American girl doll and her name is Saige.  Faye had been saving all  the money that was given to her.  She even asked for a job so she could get pay (lol) and  save up the money to buy the doll.   I am in the process of painting a house right now.  She asked if she could help painting and then get pay.  At first I didn't like the idea of a 5 years old  helping me painting.  She insisted so I gave in.  I showed her how to paint and you know what she could do it! We finished 3 rooms together.   And she had enough money for her first American girl doll.

I have to admit that the doll is very pretty.  Love the boots!  She also came with a pair of earring and a ring.  I made the necklace for her.

You knew I can't sew and doll does need new clothes. :) So I crocheted her this dress and hat.

 She also needs at least one accessory to go with the dress right? How about a crochet fat bottom purse?

I used size #3 crochet thread for this purse.

I hope I haven't bored you with this post.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Brown Crochet Fat Bottom Purse

Hello,

I have another crochet fat bottom purse to share today.  This time it's in brown.

I made the red one a while ago.  You can check it out here.  This time I added lining for the shoulder straps too and it was much more comfortable to carry.

My sewing machine and I are not friend yet even though I had it for almost 10 years. :)  Therefore I hand sewn the lining.

As always, appreciate you dropped by here again.

Birdie A Note Of Thanks

Hello,

Over the weekend we had such beautiful weather.  I've seen people in short and T-shirt. So nicer weather is definitely on its way.

I made this quick card.  The tree trunk was hand cut and the leaves were the circle scallop punch.

I don't know why but lately I had used heart on a lot of the cards.   I quilled a simple bird to go on the tree.  The awkward sentiment was again to cover up the mess up.

Thanks for stopping by!

String Art Heart Altered Wooden Box

Hello,

I wanted to try a string art heart shape so I cut out the heart shape and made the template for the stitching.  I am not a high tech person therefore everything was hand drawn.  I knew the template can be done on the computer.   But it probably would take me much longer if I was to try to make the template on the computer.  Any how here it is.  I made this for my little next door neighbor.  As you can see her birthday was in February.

 You can fine the rose tutorial on the side bar.

On the inside I put the battery tea light along with gift.  I forgot to take the size picture.  I just wrapped it with pattern paper from Stampin' Up!

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful weekend!  The weather is suppose to be nice for the weekend.

Pink String Art Altered Tin Can

Hello,

Sharing a quick project.  This was from one of the many half finished string art that I did a while ago. You can check out HERE.  It was a quick finishing since half was done already.

Have a crafty Wednesday.

Five Minutes Just For You Note Card

Hello,

This is another embossing folder that I bought from Ac Moore.  One time I went to Ac Moore and found the Darice embossing folders were 50% off.  For $1.99 a piece I bought all the design that they carried.  This week the embossing folder is on sale again.  This time $1.88 each.  No body can beat this price.  I most likely will check it out again to see if there are new designs. :)

This is not a truly 5 minutes card because the quilling flower took more than 5 minutes to make but because I had the flower already made a while ago this card was really a quick one.

Thanks for looking!
