Personalised Saving Jar

I turned an old food storage jar into a personalised savings jar with some hand cut vinyl.. I also used transfer tape (for the first time) to apply the text!

I love how this turned out and will be making myself one soon !

Paper Cutting for New Arrival

This is a hand drawn paper cutting that I then designed on Photoshop and cut from a single piece of A4 card. I think this is a really sentimental keepsake, and I am very excited to come up with some new designs in the future.

If you would like any more information about these, please e-mail beforeandcrafter@hotmail.com.

Scrabble Shadow Box

This is a shadow box I have made for my family; I used scrabble tiles (found in a charity shop for £2.50) and some material I picked up in a vintage store.

It took me a while to measure out where I wanted to place the pieces, but I love how it turned out and would love to commission some more of these.



I'm so happy it's Friday- and looking forward to some sunny crafternoons this weekend.

Sunday is Car Boot Day!

We had a stall at a local carboot, and below are some of today's finds.

            

All of these items need a lot of TLC, but I'm excited to upcycle them, especially the small table which I plan on turning into a stool.
Keep posted for updates!
