Baby love old and new

A treasury made with 100% homespunsociety team members on Etsy.   

A beautiful swan pendant

My 15 yr old daughter made this gorgeous little swan pendant.  She did this without any instructions, just looked at a picture of a swan and off she went!  It's made out of Fimo clay.  Isn't it just darling.  I love it.  She's making some to put up for sale in my PurplePlatypus shop.  As soon as they are available I will be putting up a post to let you know.  Let us know what you think!

A new hat and scarflette

I've had this project laying around and finally finished it.  Both items are knitted and crocheted in a beautiful variegated yarn.  It's an acrylic yarn so you can wash these in the machine and dry them in the dryer.  Look stylish on cold winter days!   Click on this link to get to it in my shop:

Soothing mauves and greens ... You and me forever

I did go to art school many many years ago but always disliked having to work with the color wheel so I basically ignored it and still do when I make things.  Sometimes people make comments about the "unusual" color combinations they find in my art work, being it with colored fleece, yarn or paint.  I've thought of going back and study the color wheel to see what is suppose to work well together and what not but I've been told not to do just that and keep going with whatever I think feels and looks right.  Doing that makes my work what it is, makes it just a bit different from others and as long as it looks good to me and good enough to others I'm happy.  

Today I put together this treasury for you ... mauves, greens, pink and purples ... I love these colors.  Makes me think of rhubarb.   Hope you like it as well!  The treasury that is ...  

Vintage Sunshine with a hint of new

A mellow yellow treasury for you to enjoy.
