This little lady was created after the other batch of felt necklaces I recently made! I've seen this button used to make lot's of different kinds of jewelry. I made her and a similar one in black into pendants for my personal jewelry collection a few years back.
I came across the buttons again during a recent craft shopping outing! LOL I juat had to buy them again!
She's a shank button sewn to felt. She's a little raised, so the sequins and seed beads fit nicely under her. I love her eyes and the little dots that make up her nose!
Now available in my ShoeFlower Etsy shop.

Heart and Star Doll
Say hello to my newest creations!! Heart and Star dollies!
The one on the left is "My Heart Grows for You" and the one on the right is "My Star Shines for You".
I started with cotton. Drew the patterns. Sewed them on my machine. Stuffed with polyester fiberfill. Hand sewed them closed. Sketched the girls and painted them with acrylics. I finally coated them with some glitter and a gloss for protection.
As you know, I love any kind of big eye art and dollies, so these are my tribute to them! XOXO
Thinking of selling them, but not sure I want to part with my first. I might have to make more.

Pose Doll Head Ornament
I have a bunch of these vintage pose doll heads that I won on Ebay a while ago. Three blonde and three brunette. I had always intended to make cone dolls with them, but nothing ever really sparked my interest.
So, last night I just started sticking pins and sequins in her head. Added a little chenille collar and topped her off with a polka dot ribbon for hanging.
I heart her so much! She's a disco funky flower power little lady!

I'm Back!
Hi Friends,
Well, I've been married for over a month now, and just getting back into the swing of things! Everyone has been asking me, "How's married life?" and all I can say is so far, so good! I have nothing to complain about!!
I've been crazy shopping and uploading lot's of pics to flickr. I'm also getting back into crafting and have been uploading lot's of things for sale in both of my Etsy Shops!
I go back to work in just over 3 weeks! ARGH! Summer flies! I'm starting my 7th year as an art and music teacher in an elementary school, but I always get those September butterflies - never knowing what to expect! LOL

19 Days
Dear friends,
I'm so sorry that I have been away for so long! Planning a wedding is no joke!
Please stay tuned. I hope to get back into the swing of things in early August. Both of my Etsy shops will re-open and I plan to update Flickr and blog on a more regular basis!
19 days away!! I can't believe how quickly July 11th is coming. I mean, we were engaged on February 29, 2008. I thought this day would never come. I thought wrong!
