New handmade goodies!



First, a few fern images ~
I love ferns...I love MY ferns!
I have four on the front porch and LOVE it when
they are full and lush....






Can you tell what they are?
iPhone cases...in progress!
I used canvas drop cloth fabric, tan and cream ticking and
warm and natural batting sandwiched between.
All have been laundered and pre-shrunk, so that's a good thing!
The pic below is BEFORE embellishing ~




Here are the AFTER pics!
I only made two, just testing out the fabrics and style ~








Just listed in my Etsy....I think I'd like to make more of these!
They were really fun and now that I have the method
down pat, it will go faster next time, don't you think??

Today we will attend the mini graduation
of our youngest son, Noah, from middle school
to HIGH SCHOOL!!
Plus it's the last day of school for Noah for the summer
YAAAAY! For him AND me!!
Being the night owl I am,
believe me, it's a good thing :)

 

Have a wonderful Friday precious friends!!!
hugs and love,
Dawn

These are really neat. I don't have one of these new fangled phones (Ha), but I know people who do. Great idea.

How lovely and beautiful, dearest Dawn- they will sell very good ,I`m sure.
And the fern images so wonderful-thankyou sweet friend.
I can immagine the joy of sleeping a little longer in Noah`s summer holiday- here it is 8 every day before I wake up-love to read in bed late every evening- Magazines, and books from Stampington, and such :-)
Wish you a wonderful week-end my sweet. Love and hugs,Dorthe

Dawn- once again your style shines through!! The cases are wonderful!

Speaking of ferns, right now here in Maine people are selling fiddleheads... I think you eat them? I don't know- they look like green snails!! Ew. I'll plant my ferns, thanks... :-)

Dawn- you could probably get famous for these little cases- they are so cute.. They won't last long in your shop. You need to make them to fit kindle and iPad also!!

I can't believe your Noah is going into high school---
