Fascinations on a Friday - 09/28

Don't we all love taking photos? But in the digital form rarely see them often. I was wondering how best to display the lovely memories and stumbled upon a wonderful tutorial from Deb of Paper Turtle.

 

You can find the tutorial HERE. This can be a fun craft to do with kids and the possibilities are endless! Have fun and keep smiling :)

  

Happy Friday and a great weekend to everyone !

Framed Motif

Hello and good morning to my readers from all parts of the world. Hope you have overcome the Monday and heading strong into the week!!

As i said in my previous post, i am getting back to the Beyond the Square Challenge.
A look at my new motif..

Motif #6 for you from CIRCLES.

 

We have a Living Plaza here, similar to $1 store. Picked up this lovely wooden frame from this store. They have a variety of frames in different wood colors and also in white and blacks. Definitely going back for more. Don't you think this flower looks super cute in this frame?

A peek into Motif #8. This one needs blocking for sure. Here it is, pins holding it in place. Will post the blocked motif tomorrow.

 

Have a great day everyone and i am all gearing up for a big day tom! 

Happy hooky time,

Love,

Wall of Love

This project is a reallly small one, just 2 flowers, 2  hearts, 2 frames, some beads and 2 lovely smiling oh soooo cute photographs of my most loved people!

I got the flower pattern from here and the heart pattern from here. The frame was done using thick sheets from an old Little Miss's trucks book. She loved that book and used to make us read it over n over again. The crochet frame was made up by me on the go..The beads were the expensive stuff . Bought it from ToysRUs.

It is a very small project but it took me over 2 weeks, mainly because i did not dare to open the beads when the Little Miss was awake and could not open it when she was asleep as Mr Smiley was awake and would make a run for the colorful stack! Ufff...when both were off to dreamlandzz..the light was not good enough to plan the entire layout!

This is the initial layout

and these are the beads!!! Arent they so pretty, the butterfly ones and the flower ones..have lotsa projects in mind...head is buzzzzinnnnggggg..

 

Added a layer of glue when i blocked the wall hanging. It really helped in stiffening the entire piece and gave it a brand new look. 

So here's the reveal!!!

This has already been certified by my girl as "Arey wahhh....so cute! Everybody smiling!"

Love it love it love it.........
