Autumn Outfit

Went shopping with mum yesterday as she came over for the day and saw some lovely outfits in M and S.  All out of my price range of course but I liked the casual, almost hippyish style, they had a sort of vintage washed out look which I liked.  I put this outfit together which reminded me of one of the outfits on a mannequin in M and S.  My thirft plan it to try to buy similar items from charity shops and see if I can put something together for a fraction of the price.

Retro Wreath: SOLD!

Yey!  Finally I have sold my retro fabric and yarn wreath, it only took nearly a year!!  Very happy though, although I love it, it justifies me making another one.  I really enjoy making these but was beginning to wonder if there was really any market for them.  Now I say "yes" and will start thinking of ideas for another.





In case you are interested, I wrote a tutorial on how to make a wreath like this, have a look here is you are interested.
