I'm calling this one "Midnight in the Rose Garden" A new additiion to my Vintage style hoop range. This hoop is hand embroidered roses, using a hand dyed silk filament yarn in a gorgeous silvery purple shade, with a mottled brown silk yarn for the branches. All stitched on to a midnight blue linen fabric background, with purple, and dark silver silk and satin ribbon embellishment. #embroidery #embroider #hoopart #handembroidery #needlecraft #fibreart #feelingstitchyig #embroiderylove #sew #stitching #handmade #embroideryinstaguild #needlework #makersmovement #makersgonnamake #craftsposure #contemporaryembroidery #modernmaker #etsyseller #handstitched #fibreartist #etsy #embroideryart #embroideryhoop #embroiderypattern #stitchmagazine #handcrafteduniquelycommunity #Vintage #Vintageembroidery ##vintageroses

You may have seen these before, but I wanted to show you a pretty, fun jewellery set I made recently. Rainbow shades of Mobius rose form this pendant and earrings set. The pendant is supplied on a choice of black cord necklace, or a silver chain, and the earrings have sterling silver ear-wires. #chainmaille #handmadenecklace #metalsmithing #handmadejewellery #handcraftedjewellery #chainmail #chainmaillejewelry #handmade #handmadejewelry #handcrafted #geekcraftexpo # #soshiny #chainmaillejewellery #chainmaillejewelleryartist #oneringatatime #ringbyring #handmadenecklace #handmade #madebyhand #esoteric #holistic #celtic #viking #medieval #alternative #ChainmailleBracelet #ChainmailleNecklace #AluminiumJewellery #ChainmailleLove ##jewellerybyhand

I am taking part in a “Summer Vibes” emporium shortly, and wanted to make some pretty summer themed jewellery. What better then Swarovski crystals? These ombre style bracelets use varying shades of Swarovski bicone beads, together with sterling silver chain. They fasten with a lobster claw clasp. Measuring just over 7 inches, they come in shades of pink, blue, green, purple and monochrome. #jewellery #instajewellery #handmadejewellery #design #jewellerygram #Handmade #Lovejewellery #Supporthandmade #Mycreativebiz #JOTD #Jewelleryoftheday #Shopsmall #Pursuepretty #Thatsdarling #Sparklythings #Jewellerylovers #Jewelleryaddict #handcrafteduniquelycommunity #etsy #etsyshop #handcraftedjewellery #JewellerybyHand #Gemstone #CrystalJewellery #CrystalHealing #GemstoneHealing #SilverJewellery ##swarovski #SilverBracelets ##summerjewellery

In my craft cupboard I have a huge stash of vintage fabrics, threads and embellishments that I have collected over the years. I finally decided to put them to use! These are a different style for me, and I really hope you like them! I would love to hear your feedback (good or bad!) (but if its bad, please be gentle!!!!!!!) First up is this pretty floral hoop – with a vintage fabric background that is reminiscent of Regency wallpaper, hand embellished faux millinery flowers, beads, and finished with hand embroidery. Framed in a five inch hoop. #craftsposure #textileart #inspiredbynature #makersmovement #searchwandercollect #creativelifehappylife #seekinspirecreate #createmakeshare #handmadewithlove #craft #abmcrafty #wemakecollective #freestylecreativeliving #modernmaker #creativehappylife #SOIshowoff #handsandhussle #calledtobecreative #waketomake #foundmademodern #crafts #handmade #handmadewithlove #imadethis #handicraft #handcrafteduniquelycommunity ##handembroidery #Vintage ##vintageembroidery ##vintageflorals
