Buckets
This is my gift wrap for the upcoming holiday season. I figured something that has a dual purpose would be appreciated. The directions are available from Maya Made on Etsy. I can honestly say the ones made with canvas have been easier than the burlap ones. But I do love how they are turning out. So far these have been made with the recipients "colors". BTW the green one is mine...had to practice you know...lol

These are adorable! Well done - you are doing so many new things - can't believe you even FEEL like making the time what with teaching!
ReplyDeleteWithout all of these projects to destress me, I would probably hate teaching. Creating gives my brain a break from my work week,which knock on wood- seems to reenergize me for the week!
ReplyDeleteKelly--I've admired Maya Made's buckets for some time now, too! (I even got so far as to buy a large quantity of red burlap...then nothing.)
ReplyDeleteYours came out so great, I may need to revisit this project again myself!
Thanks for the inspiration!!! XXO-
Fabulous idea for wrapping and reuse for later!!!! These would be wonderful in red burlap and painted canvas!!!! Perhaps I still have time???????................... Is there ever enough??????????????????
ReplyDeleteTheese are fabulous!! I would love to recieve a gift wrapped in this!!! Perhaps I still have time?????? Is there ever enough??????

ReplyDeletei love the things you make and especially the way you appoache things: the easy way and thats the way i love it.

Kelly, thanks for your comment on my blog. I am in love with this carder. With a little deep blue mohair, I turned shocking pink roving into a gorgeous purple/magenta. Very cool! What great combos have you come up with??
ReplyDeleteArlene- I have been looking for that perfect blend of green for the stems of flowers. I love how every time I run the wool through the carder I get a different shade! I have a book called Felt to Stitch that has a color in felt section that helps me blend my colors by adding white or black.
