My Etsy Store

2011-10-11T20:51:00.002-05:00

(fel) [it] (pronounced "feel it" couldn't get the little mark to show on here) is the name of my new Etsy store. I sell one of a kind bags/purses there. They are one of a kind because of the stuff I make them from. Remnants, up-cycled/re-purposed things and parts, hand embroidery. Whatever I have on hand or rescue from the clearance bin. They are usually fun themed bags, but are meant to be used. I will be adding things, other than bags, to the store down the road. I have a strong desire to create tangible things, and selling them keeps me from cluttering up my home. I hope you enjoy it. Now go buy something. ;)

Gifts for a friend

2011-07-18T18:19:00.001-05:00

These are a set of 4 coasters made from a deconstructed bead curtain, and placed on a cork backing. The set on the right (large wood beads) are actually trivets, on leather cording, that can be used all 3 together or separately. I found a tutorial online and made it better by treating the wood with mineral oil to prevent food stains, and for easier clean up.

Yoga mat bag

2011-07-18T18:12:00.001-05:00

This is my yoga mat bag that I made for myself in an hour with no pattern. I just measured my mat and went from there. It is awesome and fits tight to your shoulder for carrying or bike riding to your class.

"Little Chef" hat

2011-07-18T17:41:00.001-05:00

My son has insisted that my mom call him "Little Chef" when he cooks with her. For this very reason, and his love of cooking, I made him this "Little Chef" hat. He loves it, but often won't wear it when he cooks, because he's afraid he'll get it dirty. This cracks me up every time.

I crocheted it, and according to my sister (who actually knows how to crochet) I made up my own stitch or did a half single or half double stitch on the top part. I have to admit I had a very vague idea of what I was doing, so I found it super awesome that it ended up looking like I thought it would.

TARDIS hat from loom

2011-01-31T07:43:00.002-06:00

This was my first attempt at loom knitting a hat with more than one color.


I found a knitting pattern online of a hat similar to this. I really liked it, but don't know how to knit with needles, so I converted the pattern to fit a knitting loom, and made some slight changes to make it look more like the TARDIS windows.

a quick blog header

2011-01-17T14:03:00.004-06:00

Halloween 2010 costumes

2010-11-03T12:19:00.003-05:00

The Red Queen. The crown is made from poster board and gold paint. The coat fabric was due to be thrown away by the store my mother works at, they told employees to take what they wanted. I bought the glass beads at a craft store. The shirt was hers, and the black skirt is mine. I pinned it to make it small enough to stay on her.

The card is made from the same red fabric as the red queen jacket, an old white t-shirt, and some batting. The paint brush was an old ruined one that I painted the tan paint on it red. The paint bucket was almost empty, so I used up the paint and painted red over the other color that had dripped down the side.

The Mad Hatter's hat is made from poster board and some fabric my sister picked up at a yard sale. The ribbon on the hat and around his neck is some from the store I mentioned above that was doomed to the trash. the hat pins are made from wire and glass beads, the card is tea stained to look aged, and the peacock feather came from the craft store. All of the clothes came out of our closet. The spools were just laying in my sewing box waiting for a purpose.

Halloween costumes 2008

2010-11-03T12:02:00.003-05:00

Sally from the Nightmare before Christmas. This costume was made entirely of fabric scraps I collected, sharpie pen, and some pieces were coffee stained before they were attached. The arms and legs are gray knee high pantyhose, and the hair is yarn.

I just made the ears and wings with shiny black fabric and some pillow stuffing and pinned them to his jacket.

Halloween costumes 2009

2010-11-03T11:52:00.003-05:00

The belts on the hat and the witch are just that...old belts. I made the dress, she already had the shoes, and the hat, broom, and tights came from the store.

This one is made from an old sheet, some cheese cloth, and some elastic on the wrists and around the face.

Logo inspired by a tree

2009-05-15T13:56:00.005-05:00

This company name isn't really doing it for me, but I needed to make something up to go with the logo...which I created just for fun.

the sketch process was fast, I knew about what I wanted just from looking at the tree.

This was my inspiration...

Blog banner

2009-01-27T12:24:00.003-06:00

This is the blog banner I created for mine and my sisters weight loss blog. It's a good reminder of what our focus is, and it makes us happy. I made it while we were on the phone one day, so I didn't spend much time on it.

C-Flex

2008-07-10T23:10:00.006-05:00

This was my favorite project to create while I worked at Advanced Home Care. I had a real budget on this one, and was actually given more than a day to design it. Starting at the top of this one you have the cover, inside left page, inside right page, and then the back. The Respironics Rep was very excited and pleased with this piece.
