Decorated pointe shoe and round ornament

This previously used pointe shoe has been softened by washing several times in a washing machine at medium temperature, then stuffed and decorated.




A small ornament, was supposed to be a pincushion, but I don't seem much space for pins anymore :)

A sample of July craft 3: necklaces





























A sample of July crafts 2

More velvet strawberries!



Next post, cuffs and necklaces!
























A sample of July crafts 1

First, a tissue box holder. The box is a 0.5 dollar find in a thrift shop. The strawberries are in velvet and the lace is a vintage french lace. The crochet butterfly comes from Ebay. Bought from 'knittinglinda'.







Second, a bird nest. Again, done with new and old materials.


In very different colours, here are 2 very plump huge burgondy and black velvet strawberries.
If I have time, I'll put more. They are many more!
