I decided to open a new Etsy shop for my fabric items; they seemed somehow lost in the Button Art shop. So, all my bags, hats, scarves etc. are now moved to P8 Accessories !!!!
To celebrate this grand opening, I am having a give-away ! Everybody who visits my new shop and leaves a comment here in my blog about which item they like the best in my shop, goes in the draw. The winner will receive this pair of elegant wrist warmers:
I will pick the winner at 20.00 German time on the 5th of November.
AND THE WINNER IS: evihan from Istanbul !!!!!!
I had a Christmas market last weekend and am pretty exhausted from those 2 days standing and talking. My bestsellers this year were the wristwarmers I made from all kind of beautiful leftover fabrics; silk, velvet, lace, wool, felt, etc. Most of them are lined with wool and, therefore, pretty chic and warm ! And, of course, some of them are decorated with some pretty buttons too.
Made lots of them in the last 2 weeks, here you can see a selection:
I am pretty proud of my last two hat creations; experimented a bit with velvet and heavy wool felt. The turquoise velvet one was made for the European Street Team challenge of last week: AQUA. Especially the wool felt I love to work with; it feels thick and strong, does not fray and is lovely for making decorations like flowers and leaves. Got myself a lot more of this woollen felt,also a bit thinner which is a bit better for my sewing machine who had some difficulties with the thick magenta I used now.
