craftgrrl | Crafting for spring is like dancing for rain...Not sure if it works, but it's fun!

Oh, I'm so ready for spring to get here. Until then, cabin fever is producing some okay crafty creations. Wanna take a look?

Arg. This heart 'n' bones number might even win over a pirate's ticker. (If [s]he were blind. Heh.) One of my first entirely handmade bags in a while.

The bottom part of this purse was once a reject fleece cap I was trying to make for a friend. She ended up just getting the scarf, and this, with some lace handles and a velcro closure, became a snazzy lil' handbag.

This one's kinda silly, but I like it. I found this silver evening bag at the thrift store, and I fabric painted on some glittery green dollar lovin'. My stab at the bling-bling look ;)

Another thrift store find, I took this blue bag and merely stitched on a green felt heart. It needed some umph, and now I think's it...umphalicious. Or something. Cute at least..

My tribute to the lovely, quoteworthy Oscar Wilde. Prebought tote, hand-decorated.

Another all handsewn job, this is my attempt at a messenger bag. Made from vintage fabrics...It looks a lot cuter in person, actually.

I adopt thrift store bags like other people adopt children. This plaid baby was another lovely find, but I thought it needed geeked up. And so I wrote I <3 geeks. Because I do ;)

Your honest opinions much appreciated!
