These will be for one of the twins' teachers, in theory one from each of them, so I now need to make another pair for their other teacher, but I think they'll do the trick.
And because I am just so greedy, I ended up with a brooch for myself, as I was rather loathed to pass on something that I really liked to someone who would just put it on the pile with all the other nik-naks from their class, ready, most likely, for 're-gifting'!
So here are my felty-makes so far...
I had a eureka moment earlier and have a plan for later involving some eyelets purchased for a long-forgotten venture.
Now where did I put that hammer?!
Oooh they are lovely! Love felt, its so great to work with. Must take out some I have stashed away and get stitching with it. Nice work twinnie :-) But mind that hammer!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove your brooch! I imagine your husband has hidden the hammer! Jxo
ReplyDeleteOoh, you cynic you. 'Regifting' as if. I only do that with gifts from the m-i-l ;-)
ReplyDeleteLooking good. Maybe I can give some of my leftover zippy purses to the teachers for my lot.
ReplyDeleteWell if the teachers are stupid enough to regift these cuties I am sure the recipient will enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteI'd be keeping them all!
I love the hearts! but I'm so glad my children have all left school apart from my youngest who is in his final year!
ReplyDeleteFrom my experience as a teacher - yep, totally re-gift! But perhaps not your cutey brooch.
ReplyDeleteOooh, your baubles look fab (which just sounds so wrong, may I say lol) and love the colours of the brooch
ReplyDeleteOh! Love the little grey brooch! This teacher wouldn't be re-gifting it, that's for sure!
ReplyDeleteLove the decorations! I used to regift chocolates and bottles of wine but always kept anything handmade and all Christmas decorations - the hearts would definitely be on my tree if I taught your twins!
ReplyDeleteThey are all looking fantastic Hadley! Any teacher who re-gifts your handmade gift should be shot! (hand in air volunteering for target practice! Please miss! lol)
ReplyDeleteI adore these! I'm sure the teachers will appreciate something that is handmade and is so very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBaublicious! Teachers' presents? How things have changed (bah humbug!!)
ReplyDeleteYour brooch is particularly cute :)
They are absolutly gorgeous! I would love them. So lovely!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely, the teachers will be delighted. I like the felt colours too. I am making felt decorations for the fundraiser our church is holding for our missionaries. I just got boring old red, green and white and now I am disappointed!
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely gorgeous! Their teachers are going to be so thrilled!
ReplyDeleteEveryone needs a pair of baubles...the bigger the better! Seriously, they are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThese are really cute! Especially like the brooch! I think teachers like something a bit different. There are only so many bottles of cheap plonk, chocolates and poinsettias that one person can handle. I've seen teaching friends proudly wearing and displaying hand made jewellery and other bits and bobs given to them by students.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! The red and aqua hearts looks very "happy zombie!"
ReplyDeleteOH, well done. These are precious and the best kind of hand-made holiday gift! Adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love it when you get your hammer out! Yippee! Great makes - will make the teachers so very happy!
ReplyDeleteBlimey: baubles, birdies, brooches, now bashing - no end to your brainwaves!
ReplyDeleteI love all your felt creations-- they are so sweet! I hope you are having fun with them.
ReplyDeleteFelty prettiness!! It all looks lovely :)
