A small taste of my
HandiCrafts
Sewn and Sanded
Peg Bags
All my peg bags are made to an original design that I spend absolutely ages perfecting!
They have a multitued of uses, and are widely praised for their beautiful finish and originality.
These pegs bags can be used for many tasks - not just for storing pegs in!
If I have any left you may find them for sale in either my Folksy shop, or perhaps in my Elven Gift Shop.
Soft Hearts
All my soft hearts are made of quality furnishing material, chosen for their delicious textures and charming patterns.
Nearer the Christmas season you will find they have a sparkly festive feel, or perhaps during the lavender drying season you will find them smelling particulary delicious! All the lavendar used to scent them is home grown by myself on my allotement......
I also craft especially commisioned hearts, which make great gifts....
Wooden Hearts
Each heart is carefully drawn onto birch faced plywood, wood burnt (using my special pyrography tool, which as you can imagine gets incredibly hot!) lovingly fretsawed, sanded, then treated with two coats of premium grade tung oil.
Pyrography, or fire writing, (and sometimes called 'pokerwork') is a process which has been practiced by many cultural traditions since ancient times...
Beautiful love tokens for someone special, or a loving gift for yourself .....
Badges
My badges - wonderfully different!
Many of them are made using decoupage images taken from my larger pieces of artwork. Some are custom made (Best Plumber badge for example) and are original mini works of art.
They are available for sale from my Wendy Elf shop.
Buttons
My buttons have a lovely rustic country craft feel to them - equally suitable for use in all kinds of craft projects - country style quilters, any sewing and knitting craft, card and toy makers etc.
Each button is hand cut from 3mm walnut, pyrographed (wood burnt), lightly sanded,
and finished with premium, natural tung oil.
They measure approx 24mm x 22mm and have two thread holes drilled into them.
Each button is individually wood burnt too, they will slightly differ from each other. All are cut by hand on my trusty scrollsaw!
