A Unique Plant Holder

This is probably my best invention yet, and there really isn't much to it. I've had vintage teacups laying about and so Ii wanted to do something with them. I use clippings from plants around the house. I have also used large seashells to hold plants, and they make wonderful gifts.

Deco Charms

Someone recently asked me about deco and I was reminded of the bag of charms/deco I've made that's been laying around. So I thought I'd take a few pictures. This set is my 'Alice in Wonderland' set and includes variations of the white rabbit, Alice's blue bow, a mini mad hatter hat (complete with a tiny sash and card) and a carrot for the bunny because, you know, bunnies love carrots.

These are made with poly clay, and are really quite easy. If you're interested in making deco you can get some clay for fairly cheap at most arts and crafts stores (Joanne Fabrics is my all time favorite). It comes in different colors, but I prefer to get white and then just paint it as the natural color of the clay can be altered when baked. The particular charms I made are -very- small. The hat itself is only an inch tall.

Tip: If you want your deco/charms to have a polished and 'glossy' look without getting expensive, apply some clear nail polish over them. Let that coat sit, then once it's totally dry, apply another coat. It works very well and is a cheap alternative to gloss paints out there. :)

Sweet Lolita Pink Teacup Mini Hat

The newest of the goods!

Fitting for a lolita wonderland, this gorgeous, entirely handcrafted teacup mini hat is one of a kind. Pink cotten material with tiny white heart patterns sets off plush lavender flowers and pale pearl beads, and the lace around the rim is handmade from cotton inset with a pink satin ribbon. The 'tea' is a soft, light velvet, adding a hint of sheen. 
With a specially designed light plastic base made for hat crafting, it is durable and unlikely to break. The curled, slightly puffed handle has a wire setting and the hat is worn with a transparent, wide comb beneath that allows for comfort, stability, and modesty.
