Time flies

Feels like it wasn't long ago I took part in my first crafts fair, although I realize now it's one month ago. Tomorrow it's time for my second one. I had so much I wanted to make for this one, but as with so much else when you have kids, there just wasn't enough time. I've made the lavendel soap I was talking about and a few pinwheels.

Oh, and remember my flying hearts? I felt they never came to their right at the last fair, when they were lying flat on the table, so I decided to actually put some thread in them and make them fly for real. I'm happy with the result and they are now up in a "tree".

Give me your love. I'll give you my heart...

"Give me your love. I'll give you my heart..." those are some of the words from the chorus in an old Backstreet Boys song who I used to like a lot. The words that follow are: "Let's put them together, see what we can start. I wanna be with you..."

As some of you who know me personally might know, Theo and I are finally getting married this summer. We put our hearts together a long time ago and started a wonderful little family. The wedding is going to be very small with just close family. Anyway, since we settled a date my heart has been flying. In all shades of color that is...

These lovely flying hearts I made out of wool with a tecnique called needle felting. The hearts themself are easy to make but the wings are a bit tricky since they tend to come out different sizes. I'm thinking about putting a thread at the top so they can be hung but I still havn't decided on it. What do you think?

I've also made invitation cards to our wedding. We haven't sent them yet though so I am not able to show them here for another couple of days. What I will show you however is another wooden chest that I dressed with some nice papers. I absolutely love how it turned out!
