Pencil cases

Instead of using the ‘Will I make it this Christmas&rsquo,Louis Vuitton Scarf; tutorials to make presents herself, my naughty sister in law has been placing orders for things that she sees, so that she can give them as gifts to her family and friends.

Which is fine by me, because if someone orders something I definitely get a chance to make it for Christmas…. just not for my gift receivers.

Here are some pencil cases I made using the instructions from Sublime Stitching’s Tutorial

Pretty Upcycled Pencil cases

Pretty Upcycled Pencil Cases

The tutorial requires some fairly nifty, but I think unnecessary, manoeuvring inside to totally seal it. I did it on the first one but, but changed the pattern slightly for the next two.

The first one uses a reclaimed tablecloth, ticking,spy sunglasses, pieces from a girls dress and a section from a ladies blouse. It’s had a life already.

The second one utilises a beautiful girls dress (which grew mould in spots so ended up in my recycling crate), leftovers from a felicity wishes dress-up, a scrap from my mums fabric cupboard and lace from a child’s petticoat.

The last one uses the embroidery from a hankie, a piece from some PJ pants, more of the left-over dress-up and some cotton lace hemming.

All the zippers were found in a lv Wallet of ‘goodies’ from the local Op shop.

I really enjoyed making these and including all the various finds from my stash. They represent so well what I wanted to explore this Christmas.

Mojo’s gone…

I’m just about over it but the mojo has wandered off somewhere to stare at fluff and shiny things.

The last thing I made was this:

IMGP1071

BUT I HAVE SO MUCH STILL TO DO!

I am rallying the troops (in my miiiind) and gathering together all the things I need to do this final sewing push: interfacing, gucci wallet rings, corduroy, black jersey… I even wandered around a fabric shop for 20 minutes and bought NOTHING. I have no creative inspiration!

But I still have these things to complete…

For nieces and nephews – 2 sock monkeys OR 2 car cosies – what an awesome creation by My Little Gems.?And I could make them to match the crayon rolls I’ve already made – natch.

For MIL – a purse/wallet to match her prada bags.

For SIL – a skirt

For sis – a corduroy bag using this pattern:

“The Hobo Bag” from J. Caroline Creative

For BIL – a hat and a scarf refashioned from one of Husby’s old woolly jumpers.

For BIL&rsquo,gucci bags;s girlfriend – one of these “Penelope Bags” from artsycraftybabe:

For the Moomin:

For the littlest nephew – a taggie animal and taggie blanket.

Then……………&hellip,men’s wallet;..

Some of these notebooks? by Little Birdie Secrets for various people:

A whole load of chilli and red pepper relish, mmmmmm.

Cookies, fudge, chocolates and marzipan balls, mmmmmm, mmmmmm.

Biscotti and Ossa dei Morti, mmmmmmm, mmmmmmm, mmmmmmmmm!

And, my favourite, for my zombie-loving friend Jack, one of these, inspired by the brilliant Chezlin:

IMGP2061

So not much to do then! Ahahahahahahahahahaah <crazed and manic laughter resulting in a passed-out Skippy>

Seersucker. Scotch. Elitism. A Blog for the Cosmop

7.gucci suede moc
We like it when people mess around with traditional pieces. When we say mess around we mean tweak because it seems like too often people try to reinvent the wheel with what’s classic. A perfect example of a good tweak is Louis Vuitton shoes Suede Moccasin. Part boat shoe, part moccasin, and part sneaker, this shoe takes tradition and throws together some of its finest parts. Gucci’s trademark horsebit goes perfectly with the rubber sneaker sole and the blue suede is the perfect color for this hybrid shoe. You can wear them with shorts, khakis,gucci handbags, jeans, or a suit. Smart simple lines characterize the design, separating this shoe from other hybrid designs (think Kanye for Louis Vuitton). We look forward to seeing more hybrid shoes with classic characteristics and commend Gucci on finding the right type of balance. Sure, they’ll run you a pretty Clarks shoes, but if you can wear them with nearly anything, maybe they&rsquo,Clarks shoes;re a better investment then you previously thought. Get them at Neiman Marcus for $420 here.

 I got the dress on Ebay, the tights at the the Dillards Clearance Center, the shoes at T.J. Maxx and the belt at Forever21, everything was under $110 dollars. I will post this outfit once my dress arrives.

(and other random thoughts)

Our little Gucci loves bags. It doesn’t matter what the bag is,men’s wallet, where it comes from, he sees a bag and he will crawl his way into it and stay there for hours. I think if he could crawl into hubby’s boots he’d do that too, and he has tried before, more than once, but he just couldn’t figure out why he doesn’t fit. One day he even got into one of the computer backpacks, we are still finding cat hairs on the computer everytime hubby gets the laptop out. Anyway, he knows he can get into the bagsso that’s turned into his favorite hiding and playing place. I get those ‘green’ bags from Kroger, Publix, WalMart, Target, etc. You should see his eyes when I start pulling those out to use, you’d thinking I just bought him a fresh piece of fish filet. Of course I had to document his bag obsession by way of photos and scrapbooking. Really, is there any better way. So I introduce you to The Original GUCCI Bag……..
