Lilley's handcrafted lovelies

...sewing button cards...

Wow...I managed to get quite a few of these done last night,whilst Johnny let me watch X Factor and I let him watch Match of the Day!

All these lovelies are for wholesale orders, but I did stitch up a few smaller sets of 3 which will primarily be for craft fairs, but think I'll add a couple to my shops (folksy etsy).

Right lots, lots more to do today...happy Monday to you xx

...liquorice allsort beads and buttons...

 

I am intending on making more colours too, but Johnny didn't think they were all that great, so I'm not sure whether I should or not.

Yay for Saturdays....

Just a few lovely things to update you with.

I have edited the prices in my etsy shop in line with the current exchange rate...and they've gone down...woohoo!!

I've also added this little sale section, all items have been marked down by 50%!

And...I now have a whole 53 different loveheart button slogans for you to choose from!

 
 
AND...

I'm approaching my 250th etsy sale, this is an exciting milestone for me so in celebration of this the person who purchases that 250th item (it can be any item in store) will bag themselves a FREE set of 6 Loveheart Buttons (colours and slogans of their choice)!!

I'm very pleased that the yellow buttons have actually photographed close to their actual colour today!  Still got a big batch of pink and purple to make, and then I will try to be a little less boring with 365 posts!

...yet more naked loveheart buttons...

The yellow are not really this super fluorescent colour!  I'm not sure why they've photographed this way!

They are awaiting paint, but I had a super button making mission last night, for stock for another real life shop that will be selling my wares!  I've got whole load of new slogans too!  I will be adding an extensive list to my etsy and folksy stores once I've caught up a bit.

I've been inspired by the lovehearts to try out more sweeties...I keep buying bags of sweets, most of them have been eaten I'll admit!!  It took me a while to get close to the right colour and powderiness for these little guys, but I'm quite pleased.  I'm pretty sure the powder would slowly diminish, especially if the buttons were washed, but they're still a good true-to-life translucent under it.

 

The yellow one on top there is the 'real' one.
