ONLY JOKING

...albeit a little late!
I don't know about other people but after the huge amount of crafting I do in the lead up to Christmas, by the time Christmas is over and I have some spare time to craft, I have lost my mojo which is exactly what happened to me this January.  I decided therefore, to have a bit of a play and try something a little different to what I am used to...candles!

I only had one set of Starlight candle paint colours to play with, hence all the pink and purple!  So I started with a dirty pour.  This really is fun to do, if a bit messy, but you just never know how it's going to turn out.



I then decided to see if I could add a stamped image but painted the tissue paper first to make it blend in.




...and finally, some plain candles using an ombré effect.

I think I may have finally caught up with all the Christmas makes - more baubles today.  I had quite a response when I posted a photo on FB, everyone seemed to like them and wanted one!
Sorry about the amount of pictures.

Still catching up with my Christmas makes.  Today it's the turn of my Christmas crackers.
I filled them with a hand stamped joke courtesy of Stamps by Me, yummy chocolates and a lottery ticket - unfortunately no jackpot winners!

Today I'm showing a couple of frames I made - one for a gift and another a commission.

This is the last of the lamps I made for gifts - the smaller version with a birdcage image.  All products used were as originally stated.

The final unicorn bottle lamp using a slightly different design on a larger bottle.
