The pattern I got these from is called Ruffled Cufflets but I prefer 'wristlets.' They are so great for this time of year too. They are so cozy and fashionable all in one.

Update-SOLD! Thanks Tammy!~~~~ *PRICE REDUCED! from $13.00 to $7.00~~~~~~~~ Who could resist such pretty little earrings? You will get a pair of Pine cone earrings and a pair of acorn earrings. The pine cone and acorn charms are an antique copper color on a copper colored niobium ear wire with a 3mm copper bead. Just beautiful and such a lovely addition to your autumn wardrobe.

*RESERVED* for Julie Wong~~~ Here is a little blank book that has a vintage/sewing theme to it. The pages inside are 100% recycled paper in a pretty cream color. The book is just a bit bigger than an ATC. The picture speaks for itself, it's just too cute. The soft blue tulle bow really brings out the blues in the vintage image. I use these little books all the time to write to-do lists on and stuff 'em in my purse.

*Was given as a freebie in an order* Here is a little blank book with a vintage/sewing theme to it.It's just a bit bigger than the size of an ATC. Has creamy colored 100% recycled paper within. The image on the front is actually an old label from some Prudence bias tape. The bias tape on it is actually from that same package the label is from. I love that little girl with the turquise dress. I use these little books all the time to write to-do's or or lists and keep them in my purse.

UPDATE-10-23-08 gave this away as a gift to a friend.~~~~~~A little blank book with a cute cutout of a vintage little girl who I dressed up in a dress made of vintage Little House on The Prairie book paper. I think it's so sweet. The very light blue paper in the book is a 100% recycled paper. Write your to-do's or lists in it and keep it in your purse or wherever.

This card is only 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" and just so sweet and simple. The base of it is a handmade paper. The deckle edged paper that frames the flower is 100% recycled paper and edges inked with Versa Magic chalk ink. The flower is hand crocheted by me from a cotton/linen blend yarn. The grey button has what I think you'd call a slightly opaque quality to it. I made the envelope out of recycled brown kraft paper. This would be so lovely to add to any gift.

Medium Blank Book by salken

Coeur d alene ID

Update:Sold on 10-21-08 :) Originally,this started out as just a collage. Decided to turn it into a blank book by gluing the peice to some textured brown cardstock paper. It is adorned with glitter, seam binding ribbon, button, chalk ink, crepe paper and lovely vintage floral border art and a sweet little birdy. There are 20 sturdy, pink graphite colored pages within the notebook for you to write/draw whatever you want. Would make a lovely gift too. After you are done filling the pages and they just aren't worth saving, don't throw it away, simply detach the collaged image and put it in a frame or add it to something else. That's what I would do anyway.;)

*RESERVED for Julie~~~ So here is the scarf with the design you said you liked the best. I hope that your friend will like it.:)~~~My thirteen year old son is modeling it for me. He's not very tall like your friend but at least you can get an idea of how it looks on.:)~~~If anyone is interested in me making one of these in this color or another color I charge 25.00 plus 3.75 shipping. Will take me up to a week and a half to finish, depending on how many orders I have. If I don't have much to do it usually only takes me a few days to do.

Approximately 6 inches tall this little guy is hand crocheted with a 75% recycled cotton and 25% acrylic yarn in moss, almond and white.~~~ It is crocheted tightly so it has a really nice feel to it.~~~ He sits without falling over.~~~Has a little black cloth covered shank button nose and a crinkly dark chocolate brown sash or scarf around his neck.~~~ He can be washed normally in a load of laundry with like colors and will come out just fine. Maybe even better because this yarn really softens up with each wash.:)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~If anyone would like one of these guys in this size or larger I can do custom orders. I would charge $13.00 for the little one and 16.00 for a large(about 3 times bigger than little one). With shipping and handling too of course which would only be $2.00 for little one and $2.50 for large.

*No longer for sale for I'm keeping it for myself.:)~~~~~~~~ I created a knotted 18 1/2" long caramel colored seam binding necklace featuring an antique copper colored square picture frame pendant with part of an illustration from an old fallen apart Little House on the Prairie book inside the frame.~~~~I put Aneene's paper glaze on the front and back of the illustration. There is also a plastic piece covering the front of the picture and a cardboard piece in the back covered with a pigment ink that is archival and acid free and then a coat of Aleene's Paper Glaze for added protection. For the clasp in the back I used a small antique copper colored acorn charm and a loop in the seam binding. It is just so delicate and earthy.~~~~~~~I was sort of hesitant on selling it but thought i'd price it a bit higher than I normally would to bide me some time to think on it. May lower it in the future although I think it worth every bit that I price it at now.;)!UPDATE!Lowered the price.:) ~~~~Would look great paired with either the pinecone or acorn earrings I have up for sale as well.:)

I love how this sweet little journal turned out with its 48 pages of granite cream and pink fine quality papers alternating and the front and back cover made from a luxury card stock, edges lightly inked with Versa Magic, a multi-surface chalk ink called pink petunia.~~~ It is held together by a ribbon of linen material with pin stripes of yellow and pink with a sweet pebble brad attatched to it.~~~ The front is adorned with the word "Journal" with some pretty glitter stickers and a delicate vintage trim glued along the edge to give it even more of that pretty victorian feel.~~~NOTE: in the picture that shows the page colors, the one that looks yellow is actually more of a cream.

*Reserved custom made scarves for Julie Wong plus one pair of wristlets.~~~$25.00 for each scarf. Was going to have you pay just 5.00 for wristlets but decided what the heck, I'll throw them in for free for you being such a great customer and Lov.li friend.:) Had to make shipping higher anyway due to heaviness of these scarves. You will still get the .25 cents shipping for additional items after this even if its another heavy scarf.:)~~~If anyone is interested in me making one of these in this color or another color I charge 25.00 plus 3.75 shipping.

ATC featuring map of Japan for Julie Wong by salken

Here it is Julie! Hope you like it.:)~~~~~~~This ATC was done on a handmade paper. Then on top of that I used a 100% recycled paper that I edged with some chalk ink.~~~~~ I then drew out the map with a pencil, drew over the pencil lines with a sepia colored india ink, filled in the map with a green watercolor pencil. ~~~~~Drew the symbol from Japan's flag behind the map. Filled that in with a red watercolor pencil but then decided it needed to be darker and used a red marker. ~~~~~I put Aleene's Paper Glaze just within the lines of the map for dimension. ~~~~~I went online to find the Japanese symbol for 'Julie' and 'Japan' and then drew them on the ATC. ~~~~~Edged the whole card in the glaze as well to sturdy up the handmade paper.~~~~~~~~~~~ I think that this may be the best ATC i've done yet. I have to say that I was quite pleased with the outcome. Thankyou Julie for asking me to do this because it helped me as an artist to push myself to do something that I hadn't done before.:)

UPDATE-I have decided to keep this for myself for my own crochet hooks. I can make more though for anyone interested.:)~~~~~~~ I love this. It is a crochet hook case roll.

The inside has sewn in it a pretty vintage material that has eight pockets for your crochet needles.It even has a flap to ensure that your needles do not fall out when it is closed. You can actually put more needles in by doubling or even tripling up on the small sized ones. That's what I do.

    More to Sell!

    Well I'm starting to add more things here slowly but surely. One never knows what they may find here. I find it all to be very exciting. I have been told that it takes time for things to sell sometimes but to be patient. I haven't been here long enought to feel impatient yet but I'm glad that I was told that because knowing me, I soon would start to feel that feeling of discouragement if I didn't start selling my stuff right away. So, I will listen to the ones before me and try to follow their lead. One should never shun the words of the experienced.:) 

    I hope that everyone is having a great day.

    I'm New Here

    I joined Lovli not too long ago and I barely know what I'm doing but I thought that since it's a dream of mine to open up a craft shop of some sort one day that this would be a good start for me.

    I have one item up for sale and it's so exciting to think that someone could actually buy it. :)

    If anyone is interested in seeing more of what I'm about and some of the things I like to make you can visit me here. It's my blog on Blogger. 

    Take care all!
