felted necklace and acorns



Zittle tiny acorns made with some tiny scarps of the most beautifully expensive silk velvet from the cloth house in Soho, are my latest fad! I have crocheted the 1cm diameter cups from different miserable coloured embroidery threads and then wrapped a plastic bead with a small round of velvet and sewn together....they will all be strung on a double loop of velvet ribbon for a bracelet for the etsy shop! The very plain for me felt ball necklace will be uploaded to the shop later...

  1. THE ACORNS LOOK FABULOUS - DESPITE THE 'MISERABLE COLOURED' EMBROIDERY THREAD! IF YOU WOULD LIKE ANY DIRTY GREEN WOOL THREAD OF THE DARNING VARIETY LET ME KNOW I HAVE LOADS INCLUDED IN A JOB LOT OF STUFF I BOUGHT THAT IS LOOKING FOR A GOOD HOME!
    WELL DONE ON GETTING THE SHOP UP AND RUNNING - IM OFF TO HAVE A LOOK NOW.
