I am Louise and I am addicted to Blitsy - and here is a Wreath.

lol, I am so serious, after yesterdays awesome super sale I promised myself "No more until after Christmas, then what do they do?  Only have glimmermist on sale, so you know what happened...... yep 10 bottles of mist later, I am a Blitsy tart!   But lurve my g-mist, no project is complete with out a bit of blingy glam :)

Ok so I am actually going to share a project......

Angus and I sat out on the lawn in the sun on Saturday morning and made this wreath, we both felt pretty damn clever afterward too :)  We bought some cheap baubles from the warehouse and raided Andrew's wardrobe for an old wire coathanger and we set forth on our mission.  It looks awesome hanging by our door from the planter hook, my hoya has been moved for the time being.  Not that Andrew will mind, he wont knock his head on the planter basket and head for work covered in potting mix and spiderwebs for a whole month ;)

Thanks for popping by, have a great day.....

Artfull Crafts - A Rather Sweet OTP

Hi, my project for Artfull crafts for this week is a cute little house decorated with the gorgeous Kaisercraft Fine & Sunny Collection.  The house is a chipboard kitset which was sent to me by Trace ( my partner in crime over at Southern Girls Challenge).  I had lots of fun picking which embellishments and papers to use on this project as there are loads of cute ones in the collection.

 Here is the front of my house, the walls and roof are both from one piece of 12x12 RAINBOW paper.  I have added a sticker border along the bottom, stamped a pennant border from the fine & sunny stampset onto a paper from the 6.5 x 6.5 paper pad which is where the paper came from to make the flag.  The sun/clouds and the bird are from the layered chipboard pack.  The windows and doors?  Well I am sure they would look loads better if I had taken tech drawing at school.

 This is my side view, not very interesting, so we will move on to the next pic..........

This is the back of the house, but totally cute to boot! I used stickers to cover the yukky brown back of the layered Chipboard sun on the roof and also the apple tree is a sticker.  Again the stamped pennants and layered chipboard birdhouse and bird.

So that is it, a cute little project to sit on shelf in a childs room as a cute decoration.

A little something I cased..........

I saw an awesome coathanger kite HERE at Ruffles & Stuff  lastnight when I was having a little surf in webland.  I added it to my pintrest board  with the comment "I am going to make this tomorrow" and I have YAY!
Here is a photo of my take on it......

 as you can see mine is not a bow holder as Jodie doesn't have any bows, she does have clips though and I can clip them to the ribbon.  They wouldn't be big enough to look like kite bows on the string however so I used off cuts of the kite material to make mine.  I have taken this picture hanging from a picture hook in our kitchen as there is no window in Jodie's room at the moment (don't even ask, I am assured it will be replaced over hubby's Christmas break) so I couldn't get a decent photo in there.  Although you can take my word for it that it is now hanging artistically across one wall in there.  This is SOOOO cute and easy to make that I plan to get some material next time I am in Palmy to match Zippy's room so I can make him one too, obviously NOT for hairclips, just as a decor item :)

I am entering this in the Really Reasonable Ribbon Challenge - Anything Goes
