magnolia birdcage veil
A friend of mine is getting married and really wanted a birdcage veil.
It didn’t go with her dress but I made one for her stagette.
I used organza and tulle to make this magnolia like flower. I’ve also added some feather accents for extra drama.
I kept the veil short to keep it cute and casual.
You can give this a whirl by referencing Hip Hostess’ guidelines.
Below are photos of it before the feathers. Didn’t have time to take another photo of the final product

Japanese Knit-Crochet Books
This person on Flickr is obviously not just a fan, but a fanatic of Japanese craft books, and now I’m her fan. I found her set of photos when looking to show my latest library addition from Kinokunia bookstore in Uwajimaya, Seattle.

Amigurumi for Knitters
So I don’t know how to knit, but so what? It’s amazing to admire how detailed and thinly elegant knitting can be for amigurumi. Unfortunately instructions are for intermediate knitters, not complete beginners.
Hansi Singh (Seattle, WA) began designing knit amigurumi creatures as playmates for her infant son. Hansigurumi, a shop she opened on Etsy for selling her amigurumi patterns, caught the attention (and needles!) of knitters in the US and abroad, and became an overnight success. Hailed “an amazing up and coming crafter” by CRAFT magazine.

Crafting with Glass Bottles
I realize this is outside our usual topic of our usual hobbies, but I just couldn’t help admiring it. If I ever get the chance to visit Thailand again, I’d seriously considering visiting here. Click on the photo to read the full article.
Just Married
Justin and I “Just Married” last year in August. I wanted to keep the frills simple and classy and didn’t deco the car in pom poms. I did some research and couldn’t find anything NICE out there so I made a simple but sweet “Just Married” sign for the back of the car. Lots of thanks goes out to Cecelia for helping me hand write the sign!
So if you know anyone that wants a unique and special “Just Married” sign, you know who to ask!
