Be-Tasseled

I have finished my first tassels. I must tell you they are very fun to make.

This one is for a friend who has her dining room decorated with black and white.

There is an excellent tutorial from Heather on her blog 'Be-tasseled'.

Also, if you would like to buy some ready-made Cindy and Dawn have been very busy creating some lovely ones.

Hungry for Spring

I tried to put some "Spring" in my cottage (which is really a townhouse). I bought a pot of sweetly scented hyasynth. The blossoms have now completely opened. I also picked out the little ceramic bunny at the Dollar Store. They look pretty on my glass top kitchen table. I am now looking for a 6 inch plant pot, I don't care much for the plastic cover they came with. I will look around Blogland to see if I can find some other clever ways to cover up a plastic plant pot.

Baby Shoe Pincushions

I made two little pincushions. One for me and one for my sister. I got the instructions from the magazine Somerset Life, Summer 2008.

You can also go to http://the-feathered-nest.blogspot.com for some of Dawn's other great craft ideas.

Roses in Winter

Beautiful roses from my sister who wanted me to 'think spring'.
