Busy Busy Busy

In the past month or so I've been very busy with life and of course playing around with crafting. I managed to finish my very first 'Lace/Fabric/Doiley' Book


Make a small mountain of lovely fabric and lace 'Shabby Chic Style' flowers


Finish up some stickpins :)


Decorate some lovely little matchboxes for the ScrappersObsessionz April swap



Have fun making a tag


Complete a 'Book of Laces'


Make a sweet 'Shabby Chic Style' Lace tassel


and also complete my very first 'Art Dress'


There's probably a few other things I've done as well but cannot mention just yet because the person receiving them needs to be surprised :) 

Wow, now that I put it all here, that's a lot of crafting since my last blog post!!!! 

If you'd like to see any of these projects up closer, please feel free to visit my YouTube Channel HERE

Thank you for taking a look today

Jeanette xx

    Hi Jeannette, I saw your fabric/lace book video on You Tube, and was amazed by the creativity & work that went into making this, and your book of laces! Both are stunning & turned out just beautiful! I am intrigued by your projects, and am gathering materials to make a fabric book of my own, in the hopes it will turn out half as gorgeous as yours. Thank you for the inspiration. hugs,Tee

    I tried to leave a comment with regard to your wonderful video on the dress and to tell you I wanted to send you a matchbox. Unfortunately Youtube seems unhappy tonight I can't do anything. So I will tell you here
    I would have loved to be in the running for the comment prize. But at least I got to tell you how awesome your video's are. Kate

Please forgive my lack of attention to this blog post :( Thank you so very much for your lovely comment and I'm sorry that you missed the challenge, I will have a blog challenge that you may be able to join sometime soon :)

    Hi Jeanette, I came across your YouTube tutorial for the Book of Laces a couple days ago and I must say your work is very inspiring. I wasn't able to download the tutorial as It's an MP4 video which my viewer doesn't support however I was able to bookmark it in Real Player so going to try to make one at some point.

    I also live in Qld, Aust and was very pleased when I heard you mention where cheesecloth can be purchased. When I was hunting everywhere for it a blog pal sent me some from the US but now I know I can get it here is wonderful thanks for that.

    Thanks so much for your inspiration.
    Cheers,
    Elaine
