our creative spaces..


Loved creating this hoop art for Kitty's friend Daisy who had her 3rd birthday party on Sunday. It's always nice when you make for somebody with the same taste as you so you can use all your favourites from your op shop stash of vintage supplies!

I cut a doily to fit the frame and embroidered her name and a few extra daisies onto it. I then added some gorgeous pom pom trim that was my girlfriend's grandmothers and was given to me when she passed away recently.

It's such a simple idea and super easy to do but they look really sweet and make great door signs!

  2. Oh, I love this idea! I have a few embroidery hoops that I was going to hand in my daughters room with fabric and motifed letters to spell her name - but I love the idea of adding pom pom trim!! I hope you don't mind if I use that idea.

    Such a beautiful gift - I bet Daisy and her mum were thrilled.
