Another Monday in Craft Land, due to Shiloh (puppy) not crafting as much as I would like but have managed to make another trinket box. These are easy to do at the kitchen table and small enough to sit on a tray and be moved for mealtimes. Using up bits I have collected over a period of time, those may use treasures sourced from various avenues, of which I do have a plethora but they do not eat or drink nor doing any harm that is my excuse and sticking to it.
A Christmas card for MIL, she loves robins and thought the shaker card would keep her attention.

ReplyDeleteYou can never have too many trinket boxes (just like you can never have too many beads!). Love the robin on the Christmas card.

Caroline I Love the Card! That rich red color is just so pretty! Great Idea using this & that for trinket box toppings. I may just do something like that with some of mine for the Holidays.

Hi caroline. I love the trinket boxes you are doing. They are so cute and a great way to use the tiny left overs bits. The card is so pretty. Your MIL will love it! I had a look at your new forum! I will definitely be back and have a look around. :)
