Woke up this morning to find a message in my in-box telling me that my newly listed “Heart Melting Heart” felt ornament is featured in FashionTouch’s absolutely lovely “White Christmas” treasury. Be sure to check out all those stunning items and the great shops – the treasury can be visited till Sunday, 15 November. Enjoy!!!
* My new Christmas collection is currently making its way into my shop:
White & soft blue
… with more new creations to be added by and by.
* Commitment to Mother Earth: for each of my sold creations, € (Euro) 1 will go towards a good cause that nurtures and takes care of our Mother Earth. I’m still looking into a few possible projects here. The final choice of project will be announced as soon as I’ve made my decision.
Thank you for whatever little things or big things YOU are doing to support, care for, love, heal and be attentive towards our Earth Mother! We’re all in this together, so thank you!
* Treasury “The Glow of Snow”: Over the week-end, while I was away, my Snowy Felt Tree Ornament was chosen for the lovely Strawberryona’s beautiful and snowy treasury. The treasury has already expired. However, I did get a chance to snatch a screen shot of this beautiful, soothing collection. Isn’t is just beauty-full? Thank you Strawberryona!
* WeeFolkArt (full with stunning craftiness!) is hosting a Support Handmade Holidays Directory this year. Head on over to check out their growing list of entries and discover crafty new products and shops for you. And if you’re running your own crafty shop: you may want to try to get it listed, too. Awesome opportunity to be found and seen. Happy season to you all!
TOP: This is a most beautiful & soft, two-sided heart necklace I made for a young girl (age group 10 – 14 yrs) in beautiful shades of dark red and purple felt. The heart pendant has been ever so lightly filled with cotton wool for extra shaping.
Designed, embroidered and sewn together by yours truly ;o)

You can see more designs in the previous post – or come and visit me in my Etsy store.
New designs are being worked on and will be added continually.

Hello, lovely souls!
After having been in vacation mode for quite some time, my Etsy nook is finally OPEN again since earlier this month and the re-opening is still in full swing! Yay ;o))
Among some familiar items, lovely new ornaments & hair clips have been listed so far and more new preciousness (felt brooches, and most likely gemstone earrings, as well - see previous post) will be added to the shop by and by … so be sure to stop by once in a while to stay up to date.
Here’s some eye-candy for you … if you like to see more: come on over and visit me in my Etsy boutique, take a seat, have a cuppa tea and let’s chitchat for a mo’. ;o)
More Christmas goodies ….
Earlier this year, nudged by a wonderful & inspiring friend who sells precious stones of a beauty-full quality and who is also creating necklaces with them, I started dipping my toes into jewelry crafting, making earrings out of said precious stones & Sterling silver. This sneak peek collection shows the first results ~ with many more to come shortly.
Currently, I’m finishing up a custom order of 3 pairs. I’m also giving wire wrapping a try … so far, I’m loving playing around with all those different shapes, sizes, and color combos and on top of that those stones are just awesome! Totally enjoying the whole process.
Shhhhht: I’ve just received some wonderrrrrrrrrrrr-full earwires…and I’m totally excited to put them to use (read: “creative day coming soon”). ;o)
At first, my earring creations were meant to be presented at local craft fairs only. Now however… hmmm … I think, they may just be taking center stage in my Etsy shop as well … I’ll think about it some more and will keep you in the loop.
Until then, I’m busy updating my shop, which has been in vacation mode for a while now. Taking photos of my new felt accessories, deciding which of my crafty treasures shall make it to the shop, organizing the lot, writing the descriptions, and so on is keeping me on my toes as well as working on new creations at the same time…did anyone say “multi-tasking”? … hahhaha … ;o)
Have a lush & rich Wednesday!
And a little “relaxation crafting” thrown in for fun
*big smiles*
Giving snap hair clips a felt “dress” is not a new idea … but I found it totally cute when I first saw it. And being the crafty person that I am, I wanted to give it a try myself. Take that plus a cute little 4 year old girl in the family who is in her “pink phase” right now. Add the knowing that she loves hair accessories and you have? Me figuring this may be a nice little surprise for her. Hope she will like it. More designs are in the making … with pony tail holders to match. ;o)
♥ Have a fun week-end! ♥
First new items have just been listed in the shop … woohoo! ;o)
I’m happily introducing my new „Classic Red*White Collection“ of X-mas felt ornaments!
Already in the making:
* New Designs
* other color combos of those designs already listed
* Winter/ X-mas greeting cards & gift tags
New items will be added by and by over the next few weeks…days, even. So be sure to come by regularly.
Have fun browsing through my new goodies, I hope you will like them!
As for me: I’m back at crafting for now….yippieh! ;o)
Have a bright & happy fall day!
PS: Gosh … it feels truly great having finally been able to add some new things to the shop! Big smiles from a happy Nicky ;o)
Still in the midst of crafting on here, so the shop update is moved to Wed, 22nd October.
Here’s a tiny preview of things to come. Hope to see you on Wednesday! ;o))
