A winter storm rolled in yesterday and it’s been snowing big, wet flakes ever since. While I love the dreamy, cozy feeling of being snowbound, the reality isn’t always so nice. Slippery roads and cars in the repair shop are not dreamy or cozy at all. The plan for tonight is to make up this Chunky Celery Soup and some warm homemade bread and maybe settle down for a movie with my sweetheart.
Staying home has given me some time to work on some new wristlets, though, and I’m so excited to share them with you! I’ve been thinking spring, and I think that’s evident here. Butterflies and other insects, pale pinks and greens, and richly colored french velvet ribbon. Some of the bags are adorned with the ribbon and some with pretty vintage brooches. Some of these are intended for S’more Couture, but if you see something you like, let me know. With all this snow, I’m not going to make it in to S’more Couture right away, so you could snag one of these bags first!
What a lovely clutch! The pleats and the ribbon are just enough of frilly to make them feminine, but they’re not to frilly! And that butterfly fabric is awesome!
Love the combination of butterflies and velvet ribbon. So pretty!
That butterfly and insect fabric is so cool – pretty but quirky and unexpected. Good choice – I need to start getting more adventurous in my own fabric choices. Can you recommend any good sources?! Jen x
Thanks, everyone! :) Jen, Fabric.com has a great selection of fabrics, and I must say I’m a sucker for their free shipping on orders over $35. :)I got both of the fabrics in this post from Fabric.com. I also like the fabric at JCaroline Creative (http://www.jcarolinecreative.com/).
