Bee happy ...... get the Singer out

I recently got out my old Singer sewing machine for a photo shoot with my ribbons

 for Bee happy home and accessories.

I had been storing my lovely machine in the garage and after Mr Happy had dug it out for me it needed a real good dusting down!

I am pleased with the results though.

The sewing machine has cleaned up well and the ribbons and lace look good too.

I also had to sneak my Bee happy pin jar into the photos which I made a while ago.

The Singer machine also has an extendable table for bigger sewing jobs which would be great on my modern Singer sewing machine.

Bee happy ........ make a bag cushion

 

The product of the week at Bee happy home and accessories is this cute Bee hessian bag.

 

 

It is so easy to make a cushion out of a bag and this bag is perfect for the French style.

 

Cut the handles off.

If you have matching fabric you can stitch a panel in one side which folds over the cushion pad.

Cut both handles in half and measure and stitch 2 either side of the bag.

Tie the handles to make bows on top and to keep the cushion pad inside.

 

You could always leave the fabric panel off or use matching or co-ordinating ribbon for the ties instead of the using the handles to introduce spots or stripes.

 

 

Which room in your house would this look good in?

Bee happy ..... strange things around us

Mr Happy and I recently went to a warehouse clearance searching for bargains

for Bee happy home and accessories.

 

We came away with a couple of things but also saw some strange things too!

 

 

A broken arm.

 

Buddha holding his own head.

 

Lots of years bad luck!

 

Good job it wasn't either of us that broke all this!

 

Lots of mini mannequins.

 

And last but not least, Mr Happy just couldn't let this divers helmet pass him by without trying it on!

 

What strange things have you seen recently?

Bee happy ..... get a new website

I have some great news!

 

I have been really busy since Christmas and now have a new website

for Bee happy home and accessories.

 

Take a look and let me know what you think.

 

I have done everything myself and this is the first time I have done something like this.

 

I am using the domain name www.beehappyhome.co.uk

 

 

 

Come over and take a look.

 

I would love some feedback on my new website.

 

I am still in the process of adding some stock so keep checking back.

 

Also, if you have purchased through my ebay store in the past I would really appreciate it if you could email me a couple of lines about the service you received so I can add this to my testimonials page.

 

The lovely Jem over at Beautiful Clutter has kindly already done this for me.

 

Thank you so much for all of your help and support during 2012 as this gave me the inspiration and motivation to open my ebay shop and now my website. Thank you.
