cake stand



a cake stand, to display fancy baking on. made with left over plates from the tea cup candles i've been making. will post some photos. there are always odd bits of plates and dinner sets, old glasses too, so stick them together, however all credit must go to B1 flatmate em, who does it much better.

Red Dress

This is Sabrina.


I spent the last few weeks of the summer making this dress for Sabrina.
She wore it to her debutante's ball.


Thai silk, silk lining and blooming loads of swarovski crystal beads.
Classic colour, pure luxury.

a bag in a bundle.

this is a bag i made as a gift.



it wraps itself up.
but the materials were rather thick for my machine,
so fingers crossed the stitching will stay.















i quite like it.
and the smell of lavender.
which i am drying to make those little things you put in your drawers and wardrobe so your clothes don't smell like smoke anymore...
