Paper and Knitting and Glue! Oh My!

I’m currently making a slew of stitch markers in anticipation of opening my etsy shop. Also, Iove making them, so it’s a win/win situation. I discovered I needed something sturdy, and pretty to keep them in.

I have just designed the CUTEST stitch marker holder. I’m going to show you now.

Ready???

How adorable is this thing? If I can figure out how to seal the outside (decoupage maybe?) I might offer these in my store also. I have all sorts of different designs in paper around. I’m so chuffed with it!

I finished the paper carnations for the baby shower! Whooo! Now, today I will be decorating the little pots they go into. It should be much fun! But to show you what I have been doing... well that parts I can show you. Here are the carnations!

I found the most precious tutorial in the Folding Trees Blog.

It is for paper carnations. They are so easy and I am really thrilled with how they came out. I think I might make some for my bedroom. These four I gave to my mom since it is her tiny teapot and I thought they looked too good there to move them. Enjoy!
