Craft my life

Hey everyone, I hope you are well! I am here with some shoe bows made using Poppy ribbon and lots a dots ribbon. I cut six identical lengths of ribbon-four of the polka dot, two of the poppy. I then folded each ribbon length and glued in the centre of the back. (tying bows make these too bulky so folding and faux bow is better!). I then assembled each one of the pair, adding a gem that I had removed from some cheap jewellery from the pound store in the centre to finish them well. Lastly I glued the shoe clips on the reverse. An easy and effective way to accessorise your outfit with your favourite ribbons!

Thank you for looking and for all your lovely comments!

Hey everyone, I hope you are well! I was messing about with making cool accessories and I had an idea to make some vintage style shoe bows for my shoes with an Alkaline Trio theme. (My favourite band!).
I used iron on transfer paper to print some heartskulls on and then ironed them onto the ribbon I wanted to use. I used a lovely mint satin ribbon for the centre of this bow and then used some gorgeous fuschia grosgrain ribbon to make the design really 'pop'.
What I love about these is that you can take them on/off any of the edges of any shoes without damage and they give such a different look to your outfit so you can take your plain shoes and theme them as you like!

Hey everyone, hope you are well! I am here with a Nautical wreath made using Crafty Ribbons Nautical Ribbons. I cut little lengths of ribbon then made a circle, lastly pinning into place. It is a really lovely, peaceful project to get along with :)

Hey everyone, hope you are well! I am here with my project for Crafty Ribbons 'Christmas' theme. I have been making personalised LED candles as presents for my loved ones this christmas and there is nothing better than giving them in beautifully wrapped parcels too!

For the candle I stamped the fox image on tissue paper and coloured with promarkers. I then used grease proof paper to hold it down as I heated it to transfer into the candle.

I found some christmas tissue paper which goes with the gorgeous Santas grotto ribbons from Crafty Ribbons and I wrapped my candle in tissue paper then used cello wrap over the top. Lastly I decorated with the lovely ribbon!

Hey everyone, I hope you are well! I am here with another gift for Christmas. I found this lovely sturdy vase in poundland and it was just plain. I decorated with Adirondack inks and varnished with Mod Podge. I then placed the fairy lights inside the jar.

Hey everyone, hope you are well! I am here with some candles I decorated with lyrics from some of my favourite Alkaline Trio songs. I used a set of colour changing LED candles with a controller so they will last longer than traditional candles and have lots of different 'looks'.

I printed the lyrics out and traced them onto tissue paper, and did the same with the heartskull for the largest candle. I then stamped stars and butterflies because they related to the lyrics. I then used greaseproof paper wrapped around the tissue paper I placed on the candles and heated it until the tissue paper disappeared.

Hey everyone, I hope you are well! I am here with a piece of art I created inspired by my favourite band Alkaline Trio.

First of all I designed the image on crafting software. The heart skull is their logo and I wanted to create incorporating it into the design. I printed onto a heavy canvas style cardstock.

I then sewed and glued fairy lights on the inside of my canvas. When I was done I cut the design to size and glued it to the front of the canvas. Next I made tiny little pin holes around the swirls and music design to allow little areas of the design to be highlighted.
