Felt party hats by Princess Lasertron

 


I've been knitting and crocheting hats for a long time and it's crossed my mind to make some out of felt.  Not the kind of felt I make up myself but the kind you can buy at the craft stores like Michaels or better yet at Joanne's Fabric stores since you can purchase it by the yard at the fabric stores.  So looking around the internet I came across this DIY on Princess Lasertron's blog on how to make some.  My kid is 15 going on 16 pretty soon so I'm not going to be making her some of these hats but they sure are cute!  Here is the link to the DIY  http://princesslasertron.com/2011/04/makingbirthdayhats/   with lots of pictures on how to do it.  Have fun and let me know if you've made some.  Would love to see them!






Let's shoot for the moon!

Here is my entry for the treasury challenge from the Homespunsociety team on Etsy.  The treasury is based on the Coro Pegasus 40s Cupids Arrow Rose Brooch by http://www.etsy.com/shop/normajeanscloset?ref=seller_info  who sells vintage jewelry and accessories - Rockabilly Mod Pin Up art Deco Antique so have a look around in her shop for more lovely items.  Also click on all the other items listed in this treasury to find more treasures in all the different shops represented here!  Have fun!

Lets go green today!

I made this treasury using 100% Belgian Etsy Community members!  I figured with St. Patty's day coming up I'd go green on this one.  Enjoy.



I'm working on finishing a set of woodland baby booties which I will hopefully get to list later today so come back later to check them out.
