A question and some pictures...
Nov. 8th, 2003 04:03 pmHola People! I've been a long time lurker here. My name is Sarah, and I'm a historical costumer normally, but I *love* crafty stuff with a passion. It's my stress relief.
Anyhoo, I have a question, but I figured I would offer up some photos of a couple of recent projects of mine before asking for some ideas.
I recently discovered the awesome goodness of ink jet iron on transfers. My first experiment was this t-shirt and the Martini & Rossi girl logo. I'm currently working on a couple of other transfer projects, one is the Tournee du chat noir print by Steilen on a black velveteen tote bag for myself, the other is a shoulder bag for my little sister featuring the cover art from David Bowie's album "Low". That will be her x-mas present most likely. Here's a pic of the t-shirt:

Here are two pictures of my newest scarf. It's yummy garnet colored stretch velvet, lined with orange and hot pink shot silk duipioni. The fringe is some of that beaded generic stuff you can get at Jo Ann's.


And now for the question: I have a growing collection of those International Coffee tins and their plastic lids thanks to my addiction to the stuff. I'm saving them because I *know* they will be good for *something*, but I can't figure out what exactly that might be. Does anyone have some good ideas about what to do with these things?
Thanks in advance! :)
