So for my project today I made a Nautical Theme Carry Caddy with side compartments . I absolutely had so much fun making this sweet caddy. I used some dies, and made up a box as I figured out how large I wanted it to be. The measurements on this caddy are 4 5/8"w x 5 1/4" H x 3 1/4" D. The sides can hold any crafting goodies, gift cards, candy, or office supplies. The inside can hold a little gift or whatever you choose. These would be fun to make for co-workers, crafting swaps, or whatever you choose. I will be making more of these and may do a video tutorial on this as well.

I used lots of Really Reasonable Ribbon for my Caddy today, and also lots of flowers. The paper collection I chose to use is By the Sea by Carta Bella . The little Sailor dog is by KaDoodle Bug Designs.

Ribbons and flowers used:

• Open roses
• Rose Buds
• Sweetheart Blossoms
• Mini Sweetheart Blossoms
• Cosmos

Luncheon Table Setting with treats

 

Hello everyone and Happy Friday to you all! So over the last couple of weeks I've shared some of my projects with you for my Luncheon table setting I was working on, well here it is. I had so much fun making all the little goodies to gift to my friends in club, and they loved them all! 

So the bunnies you see on the plates I did make and those have hangers on them so if they want they can hang them from a tree or whatever they choose. Next they each also received a mini Hexagon box, which I do have a video tutorial on and it can be found here. I've made these boxes in several different sizes, and this on the table by each plate is the smallest of them all. Below you will see the larger ones.

Next I gave each a little pink cup filled with Homemade Italian ToTo cookies that I made, love these! 

Now the bigger Hexagon Boxes you will see next held the gifts for our raffle we do. I had three of those done up for the gifts. Love making all the fun goodies for this.

Video on Hexagon Box can be found HERE

I do hope you enjoyed my post for today and thank you so much for stopping by!

Shabby Chic Mother's Day boxes

Hello crafty friends and Happy Wednesday to you all! Todays project was designed for The Robins Nest Creative using dew drops to decorate my Gift box. 

To Start

To start I made this box small so it could hold some goodies for my table setting I'm doing for Mother's Day. I picked some pretty Design paper that I bought years ago its K &Company. Next I picked my die cuts, and it was a flourish that I have and some ready to go, and then picked my flowers they are from RRR and are absolutely beautiful.

Decorating My Shabby Chic Box using dew drops

I started with adding My design paper to my Box before putting together, that made it easy. Then once together I added my flourish and Hot glued my flowers on, that helped hold the flourish in place. For the dew drops I used the light pink dew drops in the tear drop shape, and then green dew drops in different sizes. I also added the diamond shaped ones to the lid, as I thought they added that little extra to my box. Then I added lots of Really Reasonable Ribbon to close the top, and for my double bow. I love how the dew drops add that extra embellishing that my box here needed.

think later on I will add a tag to the top that says Happy Mothers Day, and distress it so it will coordinate with this box, as these will be part of the gifts on my table. I cant wait to do my Mother's Day Table setting, will be fun!. I do hope you enjoyed my post today and please let me know what you think in the comments below.

Items used:

The Robins Nest Dew drops in pinks and greens

K&Company old design paper pack

Card Stock AC, and StampinUp!

Really Reasonable Ribbon flowers (Open Roses, and Sweetheart Blossoms)

Sweet Gift Bag & Gable Box Gifts

Hello everyone, 

Today I wanted to share a couple of the bags and boxes I made for last weeks Valentines Day. The 2 here were made for My friend Jennette, and the Gable box was made for My husband. I had also Made another bag for my Dr. and then another Gable Box for my Mom. I used Lots of fun Really Reasonable Ribbon flowers, Lace, Leaves, Stamens, and goodies on these boxes and bags, I really just enjoyed making them to give away, it felt so good!

The bags, they were up in my cabinets, you know I had these for a long time, they were kinda flimsy , but after adding the good design paper around them, they ended up being super sturdy and very very nice bags, strong enough to hold a heavy large chocolate candy kiss and several other items.

Adding Paper- after  gluing and using Scotch tape runner and 5/8" Scor-Tape(helps to keep paper on WELL)  to put my paper on, I added the beautiful Really Reasonable Ribbon Gabrielle Off White Lace , I also used the Beautiful Pearl Pink Delicate Satin Ribbon to create a beautiful big bow, then added the darling Strawberry Brownie Stitch grosgrain ribbon on top of that. I then made my glass flowers using Cheery Lynns flower dies(my makersmovement) and placed an 8mm white flatbacked pearl in the center of it.

Cluster of flowers and dies-

So I cut out a heart filigree piece using shimmer card stock, then added my white swirls (cheery lynn) placed my Really Reasonable Ribbon White Leaves, Chelsea Rose, Rose buds, Stamens, carnation, Sweetheart Blossoms and such by using hot glue. The CottageCutz Hedgehogs were colored using copics and then placed using RRR foam tabs. I really had so much fun decorating up the bag here. I will link all supplies used below from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store.

This giftbox with drawers was made for 2 challenges.

1st challenge on SCS Inspiration Challenge

On my box I used the stamp called What a Doll from the pixie cottage stamps.

This box was designed for a Christmas gift for a dear friend and I will put some crafting embellishments inside the drawers for her!!

For the Pixie Cottage Challenge you were to do sewing on your project. So I did sewing around the 2 panels. The top part of this box is a card attached to the box itself.

For embellishments I added flowers, gems, ribbon, and buttons for the drawer pulls.


Thank you for looking and have a very nice weekend!!
