Recent crafties

The weather here in Korea the past few days has been wonderfully rainy, 
perfect for crafting, don't you think? 



1. Yarn & Felt Wreath


I whipped this little guy up in just about an hour, so easy and so classy looking! 

Since I don't have access to foam wreath forms here in Korea, 
I used regular foam board and just traced the circles onto it using 
a frying pan and a bowl. ^^ 

Then I wrapped my foam circle with navy-blue colored yarn and added 
the grey and white felt flowers and some paper leaves.

2. Fabric Covered Canvas with Handmade Paper Pen & Ink

I started with a printed out copy of my chosen Bible verse in the desired fonts. 
I taped my print out down to the handmade green paper and started 
the process of stenciling down the letters. 
Once I had stenciled down all my letters I removed the print out
and colored in all my letters with the same ink pen. 

The stenciling and coloring process was tedious, but I thought it was worth it 
for the handmade look that it produced. 


I tore the edges of my pen & ink selection because I like the rough edges. 
I finished by using dots of hot glue to attach it to my fabric covered canvas. 


3. Felt Flower Clip


I found a great tutorial for these felt flowers here


Any suggestions for my next crafty-project?
