Mother of the bride flowers

I made these four corsages for the mothers and grand mothers. They wanted them on a pearl bracelet. I might make a video on how to make corsages. It is not hard you just need a good eye for details.

Heart with flowers

I was asked to make three of these hearts of flowers. I was supplied with the heart wires and flowers. I have made a florist course many years ago. I made the course with fresh and dry flowers. I have an idea how they are made. I did them in couple of nights here is a picture of one of them. She still haven't seen them and I hope she likes them. I won't be charging her for them. I will keep you posted if she did or not.

Animal magnets for my grandson

These animal magnets I made for my grandson together with my daughter who is a graphic designer. How I made them is I asked my daughter to save some animal pictures on her computer. I then chose the ones I wanted and she tried to fix some up like the lighter grey darken it a little and so with the white ones she will make an black outline to it. I then cut it out leaving a white outline so they are strong enough. I bought a cheap laminator and pockets about $22 and works fine for this project. I glue gun with magnets but some are not working so I am trying different glue and see which one works best so far it is all good. Warning whatever toys or crafts you make for little kids you should always supervise. I am like a hawk with my grandson and am always thinking of activities I can do for him. I am still crocheting by the way and it is not finished. I will post a photo with details.

Recycled baskets

I made the square basket out of magazine and the round basket out of newspaper. I really enjoyed doing these as I always wanted to know how weaving is done. It is an enjoyable hobby and you can make amazing things out of newspaper. Newspaper is very strong when you role them up and you can also colour them if you wish. You can find many videos to teach you how about this topic. I wish you would try it. The Technic is in rolling the paper well. Have fun Guys doing this one. Here is a picture of my baskets.
