Bee happy ..... get crafty

I had a small card case leftover from Christmas which has some smellies in.

 

 

I decided to cover the pictures over the front with something prettier.

 

I got out my glue and Tilda images and got cutting and gluing.

 

I think my version is much prettier.

 

I am now using it to store laces and small craft packs.

 

On the plus side it also smells lovely when you open it!

 

What are you planning to make this week?

 

Don't forget there is still time to enter my peg board giveaway, you will find the link in my sidebar.

Bee happy ..... add some pretty paper

I just love my brown leather Filofax that I got for Christmas.

 

After looking at Monica's wonderful blog The White Bench I felt my diary needed

a little something extra. Monica has made a beautiful job it really warrants taking a look.

 

 

I didn't want to cover the leather so I changed the inside.

 

 

I decided to take out my divider pages and stick pretty papers to each one.

 

I used my Tilda paper stack.

 

I am so pleased with the results, no more boring plain pages.

 

Thanks for the inspiration Monica :)

 

What have you changed recently?

Bee happy ........ get parcels

With all of this snowy weather about I am impressed with the delivery services.

My parcels have been delivered to me and the people are usually very friendly.

I have ordered a couple of things in the sales which have reached me in good time. I don't know if you are the same as me, but when I have ordered something online I want it there and then!

I have just ordered some Tilda fabric from Panduro Hobby and had delivery on some shadow boxes from Cox and Cox which are already up on the wall.

I have 2 of these shadow boxes on my office wall.

I can't wait for my Tilda fabric to be delivered, 4 different patterns and some ribbons, all in the sales.

I hope you are getting your parcels safely delivered in this cold, icy weather.

Don't forget to enter my Valentine's giveaway 

Hope you are all keeping well and warm.

Bee happy ..... revamp a suitcase

I was given this small suitcase earlier in the week and decided to give it a little revamp.

 

 

I used some travel stickers on the outside.

 

I used some of my Tilda paper stack on the inside, using 3 different patterns altogether.

 

I also decided to add Bee happy on the inside lid too.

 

All I need now is somewhere wonderful to visit so I can use it.

Bee happy .... make gift bags

I've not had chance to finish my ruffle bag yet but I have made this card gift bags.

I used the same paper inside for the base.

I got the new Tilda book from Amazon and couldn't resist making these bags straight away with my Tilda card stock.

These bags are perfect for small gifts or for storing bits and pieces in.

Bee happy .... remember this?

Do you remember when I put my CK wallpaper scraps from the kitchen into frames in the living room?

Well, yesterday I changed it around.

I finally painted the large frame and tried to paint the small ones but the glass had been glued in which made it difficult.  So instead these went into storage in the garage for now and I moved some other frames around to make this display.

I did some free hand embroidery on the sewing machine yesterday to make the flower and bee picture for the large frame.

Then for these frames which were empty and did more free hand embroidery with sayings.

I used a couple of my Tilda embroidery flowers but only sellotaped them down so I can used them again.

These two butterfly pictures came from a shop in Woolacombe, North Devon last year, they were much cheaper than the Laura Ashley ones :)

Bee happy .... leave the house

I had some more Tilda things delivered today.

Wrapping paper, cute birds, ribbon, flower motifs, paper and labels.

A few more lovely stickers.

Left the house for the first time in 3 weeks to do the supermarket shop.  I have been ordering on line for a home delivery which has come in very handy but today I decided I would try my hand at leaving the house for a Tesco shop.  I picked up a few packs of these sweet napkins for over the summer.  Do they remind you of anyone in particular? At £1.50 ish a pack I thought they were a great bargain :)

I picked these flowers from the garden over the weekend for my hallway, I just love the yellow roses.

Hope you have a great week in the sunshine.
