Letters

Hello, 
A while ago I received an order from a lovely lady called Deanna who lives all the way in Australia. She ordered three 3D letters two of them she wanted covering in wonder woman comic & the other in a story book - I choose Cat in the Hat. (F,H,K)


Deanna explained these were the last three letters she needed to complete her collection of A-Z and that she was going to have them displayed in her baby girls nursery. She kindly sent over some photos so I could see, I think she has done an amazing job! Such a fun idea!




I love seeing photo's of my handmade things in there new home so if you have any I would love to have a look - roobarbgifts@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks so much Deanna for sharing Poppy Lulu's gorgeous nursery with us.

Spiderman Letters!

Hello 
Yesterday I was on with making these comic covered letters! I found a vintage spider man comic and got to work I think they have turned out really well. These are great for boys bedrooms there seems to be lots available for little girls rooms but not so much for boys - so here you are! 



They will be available to order though the website next week alternatively feel free to drop me an email to discuss an order at roobarbgifts@hotmail.co.uk





I would love to know what you think? My next project is going to be covering an old wooden chair in a similar way check back to see how I get on!

little project

Recently I have been working on a couple of commission projects for a customer
I have done a few similar things before for her, she likes to bring in her children's favourite clothes they have grown out of and have them made into something else like cushions for there rooms, framed pictures etc. I love this idea as it obviously holds a lot of memories for her and her children and to be able to use the new item again instead of just keeping them tucked away in a special box.
Here are a couple of the things I have made for her previously.


The other week Heather brought in one of her daughters favourite dresses she had grown out of. It was a Poppy dress which are adorable, I love the prints around the bottom of the dresses they kind of tell a story. I have always like poppy's designs you can see them on here website here.



So as you can imagine I was happy to try and create something else from the special dress, Heather had asked for a cushion and a framed piece of the fabric. Once I started to unpick the dress it was amazing to see how much fabric was used to make such a small beautiful dress. I made two small rectangle cushions and framed up a section of the printed design i think these will look fab together in Maddie's room.
