After changing my CK quilt cover I got carried away with trims and added some to plain hand towels.
I used my gorgeous East of India ribbons and some pom pom trim.
I have also had a go at making strawberries from my lovely Tilda books.
You can see the different shapes as I got better at it!
When I bought my CK quilt cover in TK Maxx I found another crown, couldn't resist. I filled it with my Laura Ashley roses.
I also popped back to Lakeland and used my remaining credit on a PIP bowl.
And finally, I can't remember who asked, but here's a close up on what is holding my ribbon pole up.
A small screw from net curtain wire with ribbon looped around the pole and then hooked up.
Hope this helps :)
Bee happy x

The towels look smashing. Oh it all looks good - you must get so much pleasure out of those pretty things. I know I would. And well done on the strawbs - they actually look like they would be quite tricky to make.
ReplyDeletethanks for your comment on my post. Its nice to know that its ok to make mistakes but they can be so frustating especially when you have spent ages cutting all the pieces out, nevermind i might just take you up on some of thoses ideas. ps you dont know where i can get some good cheap dried lavender?
