Recycled Roses

I find these roses from fabric or paper most beautiful, even without wreath!
And it seems that they are easy to make, which does no harm! ;-))

They should look great for jewelry, too, for a ring or earring e.g.?!

If they’re not exactly your cup of tea simply look for flowers from fabric or flowers from paper ;-)

Colourful Coasters from Curling Ribbon

I really like the idea of the coasters, too: you often get curling ribbon nearly thrown after and it’s always wonderfully colourful, just the right thing for a picnic or a festive meal on the patio :)

But be careful: the coasters aren’t likely to be heat-proof!

And if you don’t like them, I have more tutorials for coasters ;-)

There, aren’t the little ones real personalities? ;-)
Well, perhaps I will put some of these little ones on my balcony.
If I haven’t anything better to do with my socks ;-))

Sewn Potholders

I find these sewn potholders soo beautiful!
I even tried it once but it didn’t work: I wanted to sew on spirals, but the stitching made the fabric pucker up completely although I made the stitch length as long as possible.
Probably the needle thread tension was too high or the like, I have to try it once more.
Somewhen ;-))

Fabric/Paper Place Mat

When I saw these place mats I was compleeetly thrilled: that’s exactly what I love so much!
She seems to use as well fabric as paper – many of these self coloured.
And I do love to work with paper, e.g. at my paper shopping bag or my paper Crazy Quilt ;-)

If you still have parts of the phone book you used to make the card holder you can complete your desk with a phone book pen organizer ;-)
And if you need a pen holder but don’t like this one, there are others here in the blog ;-)
