What to do with all of these treasures?!

Lately I have been finding many little lost treasures. One day it was a bag that had ribbon in it. Some my Grandmother had many years ago. Another box contained a few sheets a craft felt from some long ago project.

I have been finding so many treasures, that I jokingly say that our local craft and fabric store has exploded all over my work room!

So what can one do with all of these treasures? Make key chains! Yes make key chains.

These little gems make great gifts, or if your child has a no food policy at their school, send in these!

Felt craft sheets are very inexpensive. From $.99 to $1.99 depending on the style. Key rings can be had for about $2.00- $3.00. Use craft string to attach the ring to the fob.

Now you will need stabilizer to make your key chain durable. And I suggest that you back your fob with denim. It is very durable and if you have an old pair of jeans, you have a large amount of fabric to work with for no money!

I used a square cookie cutter to make my shapes and quilted them. Have fin with them. There is no limit to these!

I hope this helps gives a bit of inspiration when you find a box or bag of treasures.

Fall is here!

Today I awoke and saw that it was foggy. I went out and there was that crisp chill in the air. Fall is just about here.

Fall is my favorite time of year. It feels like life gets a new slate. I truly feel my most creative in the fall. I get inspired by the beauty that is around me and at time am awe struck at the wonders of G-ds handy work!

I so many projects underway that I get giddy! I am going to start showing more of them here soon I promise. 😄

For now, I am still seeking sewing perfection. And making tons of PB&J sandwiches. As always: Stay crafty my friends!
