xmas tea
Ferrit had been so busy she'd forgotten to tell everyone about her adventures at the Xmas Crafternoon Tea last weekend at Mt Eden Primary School
Ferrit had a super time chatting to other crafters and enjoyed the beautiful woodeness of the school hall and the overflow of interesting things to look at.
Ferrit had got into the xmas spirit and made some crackers for her stall
Ferrit browsed around the other stalls and was tempted by so many crafty things, she brought a few goodies for xmas presents
Ferrit was pleased to meet her friendly stall neighbour Bronwyn from R.W Scissors and her helper Paul. Ferrit liked so much of R.W Scissors stuff, she couldn't resist getting lots of things so ended up doing a big trade of crafty things which was awesome!
Ferrit's favourites were the odd but also intriguing hair and fur brooches
and the hilarious excercise gift tags, just what she'd always needed!
Last but not least Ferrit wanted to thank Luisa and Trent for their efforts, it was lovely day out at the Xmas Crafternoon Tea
Finger-knitting Good
The other day Ferrit's friend Thomas taught her how to finger knit. Ferrits liked learning new things and was inspired by the possiblities of finger knitting.
Ferrit made a necklace out of her very first attempt at finger knitting
BOOM boom!
Ferrit attended her very first Kraftbomb and realised why the name suits it so well. It was definitely an explosion of crafty goodness, with lots of wondeful things, creative and friendly crafters and masses of people streeming in and out the doors.
Ferrit brought a few little things and did some trades with other crafters, she got an owesome octopus card from Polly in a Box, some cute little ceramic shapes from Porcelain Rove a lovely hand painted bunting cup from Lily's Make Believe, and bag of delicious chilli chocolate from the young salesman of the day
Her favourite part of Kraftbomb was the cute little kids selling treats like lemonade, sherbert and chocolate, great for an energy boost! Ferrit couldn't help but giggle when she heard one boy say........
"Sherbert for sale, only $1, Sherbert $1,.... or free if your over 30"
classic!
cardboardyness
Ferrit had been wondering what to do with some old cardboard boxes she had lying around. She wanted to give the cardboard a new life and purpose so decided to make some cardboard roses, photo frames and mini frame brooches with it.
Ferrit pondered... what other things could she make out of cardboard?....
Let it Shine
Ferrit had been busily making new things for the upcoming Kraftbomb market. She'd been going crazy with all things shiny, especially some newly found gold thread.
Good Tea Times
Ferrit had another market adventure to Crafternoon Tea on the weekend. Miss Ferrit liked the old church building and the clusters of tables everywhere.
She meet some lovely people and soaked up all the creative craftyness that surrounded her.
Miss Ferrit also made some purchases and trades with some of her fellow crafters. She got one of the very first issues of extra curricular magazine made by Miss Ellie May, a rainbow typewriter print from Rodayo Busk, a cherry blossom hair clip by Luisa from Little Bird Designs, a wee birdie brooch from her friendly stall neighbour Kristen of Cheek Pinchy and a wonderful little bag of golden book confetti from R.W Scissors
She thought to herself..........what a good day she'd had
