Week 7: O+S Ice Cream Dress

YAY maybe I'm finally out of my sewing funk. I broke this dress into 3 days only sewing less than 30 minutes each day (not including cutting the fabric). I made this for my cousin's baby. The solid lime fabric I had in my scraps and the beautiful print was from Renee. I can't wait to see this worn!! YIPEE

Week 6 Birthday Surprise :) Pincushion Ring

I had to wait to post this so the birthday girl would not see it. I made a polymer clay purple tomato pincushion ring. I wish I would have taken a picture of the packaging!!! It made me scream. It was so much fun to make and I was so happy that it made it to her in ONE piece :)

XOXOXO

Week 5 - Massive Owl Pendant!

I had my eye appointment on Friday and I am finally getting lenses in the vintage Dior frames that I ordered off of Etsy last year. I should get them back in about a week. (I am so excited) Inspired by the oversize frames I decided to try to make an oversize owl pendant using polymer clay. The eyes are red Swarvoski's left over from the necklace from week 4. I brushed the entire thing with black oil pastel to give it a vintage feel before varnishing. She's huge and I love her.

Week 4- Glass & Stone Necklace

A necklace:





oh and my nephew liked his shirts! (YAY)

Week 2 & 3

I got a late start and missed week one.

Over the weekend I was on my way to take a bath and I got distracted by a recent ad for Black Swan and my overwhelming supply of makeup. (Temptaion won!)



My nephew turns 13 years old today!!!! He requested that I make him two T-shirts. I hope that he likes them....

(I used 2 cotton T-shirts & Fabric Markers. I looked up images on the internet for inspiration and drew these freehand. I started out not liking Godzilla but ended up liking him more then the robots).

What is next? I have the supplies to make a necklace for Mr. C's mom and I have got to get started on my GaGa costume. I'm still on the search for some supplies.... (hmmmm think bad 80's prom dress with big shoulders in black or red or any combination of in my size....)

We have been searching the thrift stores and Ebay. If I do not find it soon I'll be making the entire thing from scratch.

I can't wait to see everyone's creations!!! :D Happy 2011.
