'Crafty Jobs'

I haven't talked much about all my crafty projects that I do.  I like to dabble in all sorts of things, patchwork, decoupage, sewing and lampshade making.  Some things I make for my home and other things I make for the shop.

The first picture is of me at 'Crafty vintage' at Lydbury North. Sue and I had a stall together. a lovely day was had by all.

I bought this lovely little nest of tables from a charity shop, I was going to paint them to sell in the shop, but when I'd painted them and added some local maps I liked them so much I decided to keep them!!  I then covered the little childrens chairs with an old Fairy Tales book and a Beano Annual.  The cushion is made out of vintage quilt pieces, which I have button hole stitched the flowers and leaves and added a button in the centre of each one. The tea cups have been made into candles using wax chips, they are a wonderful way of displaying, and using old pretty tea cups.
