Well I have been busy again. With the nice weather we have been having lately seems my creativity has been given a bit of a boost.
For the more echo minded I have created more in my Soy Candle Line. Not only do you get two Soy Wax candles in lovely hexagonal jars but these are presented in a lovely Jute Bag. The candles are made from 100% natural soy wax and combined with the Jute Bag made from renewable natural sources.
These are a new prototype of my latest creation: barefoot sandals. Initiallly I created them for beach weddings using pearls, crystals etc but these are for more every day use. Can be made in any colour and size to suit.
A new creation to coincide with the revamped website. I have increased my range of 100% natural Soy Wax candles and this is the newest little addition. This candle is scented juicy sweet cherry and has 3 little cherries to compliment the scent.

I have had some pretty lilac cotton for about 3 years and have never known what to use it for. It has a large print at the bottom, gradually lessening to a pattern of tiny flowers.
I’ve never wanted to get rid of it as I knew one day, I would have just the perfect thing.
And here it is :
The ribbon has been in my stash for ages, and I think I took the buttons off a baby’s cardigan from a jumble sale.
(I shall be adding more styles of this bucket bag to my website.)
New to crafty thoughts -
Hi, I’m a new blogger here at crafty thoughts. So here’s a quick introduction before I post about one of my pieces.
I’m Sam (incywincy), work at home mum who loves all things fabric and Textiles. Mum to Emma, who is 2 yrs and quiet often appears as my model! … And wifey to Pete who is a teacher in Graphics and Design Tech.
Poncho
This is something I did a few months ago now, but I wanted my first post to be something that I especially like.
I wanted to put some ponchos on my site for toddlers, as they seemed very popular in the shops for autumn and winter 07/08. I also love the fact that they are so easy to take on and off and that’s a huge plus when you have a little one and your trying to get out the front door quickly!
- Crochet poncho made from soft fleck chunky Aran wool. To fit 2-3 years, with button detail. Machine washable.
You will see that I have a thing for buttons as I post more!!
Here is another tiara. This one is created using fresh water pearls in a beautiful pastel pink colour. The pearls are off set with swarovski crystals and gold wire work.
The inspiration for this creation came from a tangles mess of pearl neacklaces that I bought from a charity shop.
I’ve finally had enough of grey skies and have turned my thoughts to fresh, crisp spring days.
This was where my thoughts took me this morning….
The colour is more of a duck-egg blue. Something else I can blame on the grey skies … poor photographs!
