Custom Vintage Journals

Amelia Coward of Bombus Design is a self-described decoupage obsessor. Lucky for all of us, the result of that obsession is a vast collection of awesome custom designed journals and notebooks, all covered with vintage newspapers, maps, comics, and other finds.

Adorable Embroidered Wallets

Today we’re taking a loot at some precious wallets made by Carmen Majeau of Lemonade. We love the adorable creatures that Carmen embroiders onto her items as well as the lovely combinations of fabrics and finishing details.

A Collection Of “Special” Friends: Part Four

We’re wrapping up our four day showcase of special friends today and we’re quite pleased with the goodies we found this week! Not to worry, this certainly won’t be the last time we post plushies, softies, and felties.

Today we bring you a set of crazy little characters made my Pixin Weng of Maki ♥ Squarepatch. Pixin uses fabrics “re-worked from pre-loved apparel as well as fabric remnants donated by various boutiques and other crafters” to create such fun dolls as Naked Emperor and Frog With Sexy Chest Hair.

We hope you’ve enjoyed our mini-series of stuffed delights. Have a craftful weekend!
