This week instead of newly listed items, I decided to showcase some finds from members who have not been featured recently.

Sunshine and Daisy Earrings


Using a necklace from a friend's old jewellery stash, I've upcycled these pewter daisies to be the perfect drop beneath yummy butter-yellow howlite rounds.

Because of the pewter daisies, these earrings have a bit of weight to them. If you have sensitive ears, please have a look around my shop for other, lighter earrings ;)

Total length is about 1 1/2".

Hand-made sterling silver ear wires.

Handspun Yarn - Kaleidoscope Colors - 156 yds - 100% Corriedale


This Corriedale is next to skin soft. The colors are amazing with everything from lime green to soft blues, yellows and oranges. This will be great for mittens, socks or slipper socks.

Handspun by me, 2 ply, weight is appx. 3 ounces. Dyed using acid dyes, mordant used: vinegar and citric acid.

10 - 12 WPI

Twist is set, hand wash cold, lay flat to dry

Coffee sleeve cozy orange tones Eaton's vintage yarn


This coffee sleeve will keep your coffee hot and your fingers cool. It measures 4 in long and will fit most coffee cups. In the picture, it is on a "tall" sized cup and is quite deep.

This cozy is knit from a skein of vintage yarn reclaimed at an estate sale. This coffee sleeve is definitely one of a kind because you can no longer find this yarn or colour. It was made from an Eaton's brand called Vanity Fair and was knit in a basket weave pattern. The orange hues make it a perfect gift for that man in your life who loves his morning cup of java.

wood bird necklace - rainy day


These bird pendants are one of a kind - no two will ever be the same!

This hand-painted wood bird was created with hand-cut pieces of lovely paper decoupaged onto the pendant. It measures 4" across, and is finished with a lovely raindrop shaped silver chain and lobster clasp. This amazing chain measures approximately 18" in length. Feel like dressing it down a little? Flip the necklace the other way and discover and beautifully bronze painted bird.

The pendant has been sealed with a few coats of protective finish, but as with all wood pendants, please keep clear of water.
