Doilies again

Nurul requested these doily tags for her favor bags.

She came up with the idea of using the doily as tags to match her wedding card. She is using brown paper bags and I hope these doily tags will fit them perfectly.

Thanks again Nurul!

A transformation

Whenever I go on a 'gift-hunt', I do not necessarily pick ones that are new or look good. I found these ceramic 'bekas telur' on a dusty shelf in a gloomy looking shop. They were not much to look at but I instantly knew with a little work they would turn out looking lovely. Click on below image for larger view.

- a, b & c -

dusty, out-dated design, torn ribbons, loose beads

- d -

after a couple of hours and multiple injuries to the fingers, cleaned and ready for next step

- e -

light blue & white beads to match the wedding theme colour

- f -

finally, matching ribbons to finish it off.

and voila!

If there is such a term, that's what we have been up to. Based on a request from friend of ours, Lyda, we scouted around for the best materials and came up with these suggestions.
