Fall Felt Garland

All of my sisters (3) are super crafty. I have shown you two of my sister work, the twins, and here is just a taste of the other sisters work, Nikole.
This is a fall garland made out of felt.
I love the little stitches on the leaves.
This one is just a fun one. Simple circles with stitches.

Rosette Clips

I had a special order for several rosette clips.
The customer wanted specific colors to match outfits her daughters were wearing to a wedding.
I think they turned out cute.

I made two clips with all three colors on one clip.

Two rose clips with only two of the colors. This one is not as heavy and might be better for the littlest girl, she doesn't have as much hair.


I am happy. I hope she is?!

Fall Wreath

My Fall Wreath.
I rarely ever use wreaths. It is just to windy here in Vegas. It always bangs on the door and we end up taking it down.
But all the wonderful wreaths you all have been making lately made me want to make one of my own.

I guess I will have to find a way to secure it so it won't bang
because this is way to cute to keep inside!


I started with a grapevine wreath from Walmart for $3.00.


I got three colors of felt and three colors of burlap cut at Joann's. I only got 1/4 Yard of each so it was really inexpensive.

I cut my burlap into strips and sewed them together to make one long strip. Then I did a ruffle. I did it by hand, not using the longest stitch on your machine. I tried to but burlap is just too difficult to gather.

I looped it around the wreath and secured it down.


Then I made lots of felt flowers. All different kinds and techniques.

I also made a little pumpkin out of my orange burlap. I cut a circle, hand stitched a gather stitch with ribbon around the circumference, stuffed it with pillow fluff and pulled it closed. I added a felt stump in the top.

I like it! Perfect for Fall.

Lamp Bouquet

This was a project that I was really looking forward to, the outcome that is. Doing it was a not super fun. But I did it, and I am done. And look how cute it is!
I started off with a lamp I got last year at Big Lots! for $7.00. The lamp was in bad shape. It had a pink boa glued to it! Who would do such a thing....me. It was a bad choice I admit. At the time it seamed like a really good idea. Then I plugged it in a realized the fire hazard. The feathers were everywhere! So I ripped it off and started fresh.
Some ideas just should not be done.

I purchased four colors of felt by the yard.

Cut them into different size squares and then into circles. You can see my tutorial here and here.
Then I started gluing them on with hot glue.
At one point I ran out of hot glue and had to use a different glue. Stressed me out! I am a hot glue girl through and through.
I am almost done!

All done! I really like the different sizes of flowers. Some a huge and some are super tiny.

So cute!

Here it is attached to the lamp base and an my daughters night stand.

She loves it! Can't keep her hands off of it!
Being that she is only three we had a talk about the bulb. I had her touch it so she would learn never to do it again...HOT! We also talked about how she can't just turn it on and off all day. I hope this was not a mistake?!
Oh well, it is cute!
