Peyote evolution...

Here is the first felt peyote cactus I made. I was sooo proud of it. I think it looks pretty funky after the second one I made.

Which is this one. I had a sage-ish felt and tried with that. And payd more attention to the flower and prkly details. I think it loos soooo much better. And I made it one day after the first. I think I'm learning pretty fast.

I hadn't really done much in felt, but I like it so far. And I'm having fun playing and learning to use it.If you like my little creations and would like one for yourself check out the listing in my shop. Or get one in the surprise package giveaway.

Recent work..

I finally got to setting up a studio in the "guest room". I've been trying to keep myself as busy as possible making new items, reading up on marketing skills for my little handmade business. Which has been starting to take off faster than I thought. Now I need to take the time to take good pictures of my litle creations.

I made some hand-painted Frida and Mandala brooches...


And I plated with some felt and made a cute little Frida doll with embroidered detail. I've never really done embroidery so I'm learning as I go along. I think I want to put her in a shadowbox with a collage habitat.
BTW I have a giveaway going on in the post before this one, check it out! You might win a surprise package with my handmade goodness.
