Bookworm : )


Was having a good rummage through all of my nan's lovely old sewing books, and decided to make some cute fabric bookmarks -

I think they turned out really well,
As well as selling, they'll make cute little gifts for friends and family :)

Let me know what you think!

Where the magic happens...


Finallllllllly have a new desk!
After months of having our tiny desk piled up with stacks of this, that and the other we've managed to pick up a lovely big white desk
(although as you can see from the photos, its also piled up with this, that and the other...)


Picked it up for just £10!

Now my house is finally getting sorted (after 5 months of living here haha), I'll keep you all posted on how things are coming along,
Fingers crossed, this little corner will be much prettier the next time you see it!

FABRIC!!!

Ordered some gorrrrrrrrgeous fabrics this week!
Fingers crossed they'll arrive tomorrow!
Been trawling eBay to find some bargain vintage fabric, and I did well :D

Check out these beauties!










Can't wait to get them, though not sure I'll be able to cut them up right away!

I'll keep you posted with what becomes of them! :P

eBay!



We have popped one of our cute one-off cushions on ebay to give everyone a chance of grabbing a bargain!

It measures 48cm x 32cm, so more of a pillow than a cushion!

Click here to check out the listing

If you're interested in the heart shaped cushions too, have a look at our website






Website!


I now finally have our website up and running!
www.shabbyfantastic.co.uk

At the moment, we sell a small selection of cushions, patchwork quilts, decorative hearts, signs/plaques and a few other bits and pieces (all handmade by myself or my fella!)

Most items are made to order, but we have a few ready-mades that can be bought (mostly one offs!)

All are in a variety of vintage and new shabby-chic style fabrics
(think Cath Kidston, Laura Ashley, Gisella Graham kind of style)

Hope you get a chance to check it out!
