....living creatively

I adore pretty homewares, interiors and images. I am also a passionate crafter who loves to use paper and fabric creatively to make gifts for my family and friends. I really love to salvage vintage interior pieces and revitalise them to give them a new life... I hope my ideas (or borrowed ideas!), makeover projects, baking and pretty photos can give others some enjoyment and inspiration too!

 I just made a pattern up from copying the
style I liked from some felt owls
 in google images......
you could find a template if you looked I am sure.
I like the contrast of the retro style fabric
on the felt bodies and I had fun
embroidering their wings and faces.


These sweet friends now keep me
and my class company each day!



Happy Week!

  1. Mrs Tiff your owls are absolutely gorgeous! I'm inspired to have a go at making some for a charity group I belong to. Those owls would bring a smile to a needy child I reckon!!

  5. Lucky class - those owls are fab. I can imagine that the owls with the sleepy eyes would make a great gift for a new baby or a toddler.
