Gingerbread Man Christmas Wreath

NO …… I didn’t make this, I wish I had, but my sewing is totally pants. It was made by The Lovely Donna in my office ….. I gave her some die cut felt gingerbread men and she just flew with the idea!!!

I am soooooo jealous, I want it so badly!!! Perhaps, even badly enough to want to start sewing!!!!!

Incidentally, the “naked” wreath came from Poundland …… I feel another shopping trip is imminent ….. they are well worth stocking up on for 2015 projects …..and not just for Christmas!

Small Paper Flower Wreath

I haven’t got a clue what this is, but it was fun to make, I made it after seeing Christmas Wreaths made from paper on various forums and I thought I would make a mini version, but somehow it turned into something more suitable for Easter ( which makes me as bad as Cadbury’s when they have cream eggs on sale on Boxing day!)

I have used a flat plastic bangle as the base and then stuck on  punched flowers and leaves in colours and patterns that I didn’t attempt to match, just to see what the effect would be like .

The flower centres are Rainbow Drops from Crafty Notions.
I think I will just hang this on one of the notice boards in my craftroom until I come up with an idea on how to use it!

I really must stop photographing my stuff when the glue is still wet, close up pictures are merciless and yet again my gems have slipped off centre!
