It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.....
Well it beginning to look a lot like christmas now in out house. With the last of my christmas card orders going out i have been turning my attention to my Christmas gifts for this year....
I have been roaming my local handmade markets for the last few months in search of some wonderful handmade goodies to go under the tree this year and seeing all the beautiful things that people are making out there actually inspired me this year to resurrect my sewing machine that has been hibernating in my sewing cabinet to come up with some handmade Christmas gifts....
And i must say that it has rekindled my love of sewing! So with some fabulous patterns off Etsy and some funky fabric from my local quilting store, i have been sewing up a storm...
I stumbled across this fabulous pattern for this clutch, which i upsized to make some vintage make-up bags for my oldest and best friends.....
And it seems to have worked because i think the line at our Christmas lunch was
"Forget Oronton, i'm going vintage". There's something to be said for handmade gift, do you think?!
Thanks for stopping by!
