Sea glass art

I went to the beach about a week ago and in the sand I found a bunch of sea glass!! 

And that's pretty odd where I live so I'm still super exited!

 

 I found a rainbow of coolers and some really big white ones as well

So, with the white ones(and some of the green ones, made these little doodle-glass-sea-glass things that turned out super cute!!!

To make them all you need is a sharpie and some sea glass! Just doodle on the glass!

I like to be kinda abstract and I also like to put words on them...

I also like to wrap around the rock...

And here's something els I did with sea glass:

 She  is a custom doll I made, and her tail is lined in real sea glass, how cool!!?? 
 

I hope these little crafts inspired you, and have fun! Bye!

How to make a cute little doll bed out of a candy tin

I was looking for a fast but cute way to make a bed for my fairy tale Mooshka doll, and I think I found a way!

Materials: candy tin,

Sticky back fabric (the brand I use is Mrs.Grossman's) 

Lace,

Fabric or all purpose glue,

Fabric,

Polyester fiber fill,

Needle and thread or a sewing machine,

Lets get started!!!

First cover your tin in the sticky back fabric, (you do not have to cover the inside) you could also stick on normal  fabric with glue.

Then, you can wrap the and glue the lace around the rim of the lid on the tin.

Next, sew little pillows out of squares of fabric, just fold it in half with the good side facing in, and then sew along the open side and the top closed. 

Stuff then and then tuck or sew them up.

           ^                                                         ^                                                                  ^

            |                                                          |                                                                   |

    Fold in                                                     Sew                                                     Then sew or 

 half with                                                 along two                                                     fold the

good side                                              sides and turn                                                open side

facing out.                                            Inside out, then                                                 closed.     

                                                                     Stuff. 

Put it all together with I scrap of fabric for a blanket (you can store the blanket in the tin during daytime to turn it into a daybed) and...

You're done!!!

Suitcase teddies

I saw these cute little make it yourself kits at the craft store, I didn't have the money to buy it, but I still made it myself!!!!

I made it out of: 

Craft tape 

Candy tin 

Scrap of scrapbook paper 

Glue stick and hot glue

Felt and fleece 

Sharpies 

Needle and thread 

Large paper clip

I started by covering the tin in craft tape.

(If the tin has a label on the front you may want to glue a piece of white paper over it.)

  After I did that I made a handle out of a bent paper clip and a small piece of brawn paper, I just wrapped the paper around the bent paper clip and then glued it on the tin.

To make the mouse and her teddy bear I used these patterns to cut out the felt, I cut out 2 pieces of white felt for the mouse and 1 piece of pink for the teddy bear, then I used sharpie to give them faces and clothes and tails.

In this pic there is a side view of the two of them, for the mouse I used a whip stitch and lightly stuffed it, for the teddy bear I only used one piece of felt so I did not need to sew anything.

Then I cut a piece of paper to go on the inside of the tin lid, and a piece of felt to go on the inside of the tin, after that I cut some fleece to be bedding.

 And now it's done!!!!!!!!
