lovely trinket box made with fabric flowers


i love working with fabrics, bits and scraps of it can be seen lying around my craft area all the time. and whenever i find the time, i would sit down and work on making flowers with these fabrics. its good to practice with spare fabric scraps that you can find lying around. for one, you get to work with different kinds of fabrics and get the hang of how to manage them and secondly you can have a great set of unique handmade flowers to use in your projects. which fabric works well with glue gun and where do you need to use your sewing skills, you get a better understanding of it all.

mother's day boxes - 2

another set of mother's day boxes

two more boxes for mother's day. i have an amazing time working with fabric. i love to arrange whatever i have rather than getting fixated on a particular type of fabric for my projects. looking to mix and match them in different ways to see which works the best for me.


this here is a round box made in a very different style. the lid was half way made, like a sort of cap on which i added some handmade flowers made using different fabrics and burlap.
