My love will never rust

I love rusty old things as well as new rusty things .... just like all the ones I put in this treasury.   Enjoy!

Rusty Fall

I can't wait till the trees in our street turn into their yearly bright yellow awesomeness! I love fall in Virginia, well not only in Virginia of course I just love fall. So in the meantime while I'm patiently awaiting for the trees to turn ... I made another treasury this morning.

Not motivated

I just can't get myself to take pictures of a bunch of things I've made while in Belgium so I can get them listed. Sometimes I just think way too much and too deep about why we are here etc. I'm sure a lot of that has to do with my best friend Erna and also my dad passing away recently. Some days I look at everything through a different set of eyes, they just don't seem to be mine. I'm sure as time passes my eyes will point me in the right direction again, hopefully soon. In the meantime I am motivated to make treasuries and I'm happy to share them with you.

This first one is called "Who wants to come play in my garden?". It's a bright garden I must say, one that makes me smile when I enter it. Hope it does the same for you.



And this one is called "School will never be the same" also bright and sunny! I've been making lots of back to school signs at work and they are mostly yellow, black and red so when I got home the other day I thought the heck with those colors, I'm going to make one I like a lot better and voila here it is. School should never be dull so enjoy!!!



That's it for today folks. Thanks for visiting my blog.

Ahhhh, fall will be here soon ... I hope!

So today wasn't like melting hot, still a lot hotter then the way I prefer it especially for me to do my day job using spray paint ... but I managed getting it all done properly today. Even though it was hot the humidity was down which makes it easier for me to paint the boards I use for making signs. Anyway, here are some more gorgeous treasuries to share with you.

This first one is called Fall Festival by http://www.etsy.com/shop/SherryKayDesigns# who sells Handcrafted Jewelry - OOAK designs and creations which are made by her with love and care. Glass and Lucite beaded necklaces, bracelets, rings and brooches in a spectrum of wonderful colors. In this treasury she features my crocheted and fulled white pumpkin. It comes with three cute little pumpkin pins which I made from polymer clay. This treasury comes with lots of fun fall treasuries so click away and check them all out, it will be fall before you know it!



This next treasury called "Creative Comedy" by http://www.etsy.com/shop/OceansideCastle who sells vintage decor housewares, old glass, wood, metal, pottery, wall art, antique books, rustic salvage, primitive shabby painted eclectic retro kitsch atomic mid century modern collectible farm kitchen garden jewelry fashion advertising memorabilia. In other words, loads of fun things to take a look at and purchase. In this treasury she featured my needle felted fairytale pincushion. This treasury has loads of fun things to look at, I'm sure the stores behind each item will have even more fun and interesting finds so go shopping people!



Next treasury called "Gettin' your ducks in a row" by http://www.etsy.com/shop/CabinLil who sells handmade and vintage items are knit, sewn, crocheted or crafted byCabinLil in Montana, USA. This treasury features my needle felted duck who i still looking for a good home! If you like ducks this is a great treasury to visit and check out each shop listed.



And that's it for today's treasuries I wanted to share with you. I've been putting the finishing touches on a couple needle felted bears I made while I was in Belgium. Hopefully I can take some pictures of them this weekend so I can share them with you and put them in my store. Thanks for visiting my blog everybody, stay cool!

Lavender with a twist of lime ... and a bit of orange

Here comes another treasury for you to check out, freshly made this morning. Enjoy!

Red and Orange Nuno Felted Scarf

I wasn't too sure about putting these colors together but I must say I like the way it turned out. I used a dark brown silk chiffon fabric as the base. A handspun wool yarn that runs all the way across the scarf and then layered merino sheep's fleece on top of it with some white and orange curly mohair locks. I'm taking it to the market this Sunday if it's still available after the market I'll be listing it in my PurplePlatypus shop on Etsy.

Flowers for your hair and ears too!

I had a lovely birthday today, just working away on all my projects. Here are a couple of the items I finished and will be taking to the market with me on Sunday. I'm very tempted to keep the earrings for myself but decided since orange is not my color I will make myself another pair in a different color. These are so much fun to make. I hope you'll like them as much as I like them!
