A little felted brooch
I finished another little felted brooch today. The image of the two vintage girls posing as angels were irresistible and I had to make something with it. I attached a little silver locked so the new owner could personalize it. I added some lavender buds between the layers for a sweet surprise. Just squeeze and enjoy the relaxing scent. I spent the morning shopping with mom. Part of her Christmas gift was a clothing shopping spree. She lost over 30 pounds during her surgery ordeal. Her clothes hung on her like rags. Now she is looking and feeling really spiffy. After a quick lunch we headed home with the sun shining brightly and smiles on our faces. Tomorrow I finish the rental painting then have a break for a week before starting the next. After painting is finished all my attention will be focused on an exciting project for crazy quilters to be released in the spring…no, it isn’t a book just yet

Guest Post: ‘Let’s Talk Over Tea’ Brooch by Lizette from Creativity Lizette
Greetings Paper Sparrow friends! It’s me again Lizette from Creativity Lizette with another fun tutorial. When you think of tea parties, what comes to mind? For me, it’s the Alice in Wonderland tea party scene. For those who love tea, I made a D.I.Y. ��Let’s talk over Tea�� brooch with steam coming out of it! So, grab your tea and let’s begin! Supplies: teacup stamp, Speedball Oil-Based Block Printing Ink/fabric paint, 26 Ga. wire (thin wire), scissors, thread (light brown for the tea and another color to match your fabric), needle, felt, pencil, pen, pin-back, plastic bag or stuffing. Sip 1: Stamp teacup onto fabric. Note: I carved my stamp out of linoleum. Sip 2: Shape wire to look like steam. Wrap tip of wire around a pen to get a curved end. Use a single piece of long wire to create steam; this will make the next step easier. Sip 3: Position steam on opening of teacup and sew it on with brown colored thread. 3 strands of thread. Sip 4:

Sizzix Fresh Vintage Blog Hop: DIY Flower Brooch
Sizzix has always made me so happy. Fifteen years years ago, I was a student aid using the Ellison machine to cut letters for the bulletin board. Eight years later I got the original Sizzix machine—the red one with the handle that went up and down. And just this year I got the Big Shot! Rolling in style, right here! Many thanks to sweet Eileen Hull who asked if I wanted to do the Fresh Blog hop. I was thrilled! For my Fall Poppy brooch, I used the Sizzix #9 Flower die. This die punches three different flower shapes that you can stack or use alone. It’s pretty much a party when you cut your fabric. If you want to make your own Fall Poppy brooch, you will need: fabric, buttons, Katiedids, Mod Podge, bicone Swarovski crystals 4mm, and of course the #9 Flower die. Cut four different fabrics into flowers–I ran the die through twice per pattern for a total of eight passes (24 flowers) and yes I had a few extras (yay!). Coat each flower front and back with Mod Podge.

Brooch Collection #2
As promised, the second part of my brooch collection 
. My two wonderful Made by White brooches (not enough, need more 
) and a tiny Hema toadstool. On the left another old lady brooch from my mom (yikes I steel a lot of things from her ), and two thrifted rose brooches. On the right a thrifted purple horse (looks a little like a Dala Horse, which I love!), a bow brooch that belonged to my grandma and the brooch with the purple/green stones is my oldest possession and belonged to my great-grandmother. The puzzle piece deer and swans are from Lisa Manuels. I bought the little folklore deer brooch at the ‘Sprookjeskamer’ (fairytaleshop) and how could I forget ‘Women like simple things… ’ which is also thrifted. The entire lot! I hope you enjoyed the peek in my brooch collection. Can I take a peek at yours sometime ? ? Nikk

simple diy flower hair brooch
Wearing; Vintage floral romper, TopShop heart tights, frye engineer boots, vintage belt, diy flower hair brooch The diy flower hair brooch is almost too simple to call a diy but its still always a killer for spring time; Whenever I see somewhere silk flowers I buy them (I found these in fabric stores).. Because I like to play around with them I never glue them to getter or attach them in a way that I won’t be able to re-use them… Here I just picked a few I liked and twisted them together and pinned them in my hair using regular hairpins and clips. btw. Yes my hair tips are still Lilac (can’t really see it in the grayish photos though), the color fades out really fast so I have to redo it like twice a week :/ xox

Arcade Game Brooches
��You call that a video game ? Back in my day, we didn’t have swanky consoles to play games on. No sir! We had to go to a special place called an arcade. And we didn’t have no fancy things like ��save points.’ You had three lives, and when they were gone, you had to start over! And did I ever tell you about the time I beat Ms. Pac-Man ? It was the night of October 2, 1984����
