A liitle Gift Bag

Hello to Everyone.  I hope you are all well and creating lots of Beautiful things.  I have had a short break from Blogging, mainly because I needed a rest and it was not helped by my Mojo going on Holiday.  I'm finding it hard to get going at the moment, but I have not been wasting my time either. I finished Molly's Granny Blanket and Knitting another hat for an order.  Today after many months of having my WRMK Gift bag board, I finally made a bag with it.  It holds 3 Yankee Candle Tartlets. and will make a nice little Thank-You gift.   The flower was one I made and it suited my box to a tee.  Now yesterday, I received 2 card Orders, so I must get a wiggle on and think what I'm going to do.
 I am adding on some of my brothers work, he is so talented, in fact I don't know anything he has not tried ( a bit like me really ). He has lived in Australia for over 50 years, but is hopefully coming home this year. 
Hugs Rita xxxx



 This is some of my brothers work, and I thought you might like to see it too.

Hi Rita,
love this superb bag, and your flower is amazing. As you say it fits so right on that lovely bag.
As others have said your brother's stained glass work is superb, and talent really does run in your family. My daughter has a beautiful stained glass mirror that her fiend made her as she used to make stained glass products for a living once. Nowadays when the do double glazing with stained glass doors it's just a reproduction and not the proper thing.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Well the artistic streak certainly runs in the family and is being passed down to other generations (with Annie). I love your bag, it is a fabulous shape and the flower fits on it perfectly. Your brother's stained glass is also very beautiful, he obviously loves using birds in his work. Congrats to you all. xx

Your bag is gorgeous Rita - the recipient will be as thrilled with the bag as the contents I'm sure. Love the flower. Wow - aren't you lot mightily talented - your brother's work looks marvellous. I did a 2 hour intro to stained glass some time ago and it certainly gave me a lot of respect for artisans who can do it well.

You've made me smile with "must get a wiggle on" - haven't heard that expression in a long time but it states exactly what one must do! Nicola x

Crafty talent must run in the family :-)

MaryH said...

Well, like everyone else has commented, yours is a talented family! Must be in the genes. Your lovely bow on that gorgeous gift box is going to make whomever receives your sweet gift, very happy. It's stunning & the shades of color go together very delicately. After the tartlets have been in it, it will also have such a lovely fragrance too. Your brother's stained glass pieces are marvelous. I can only imagine the amount of time it took to produce such awesome art work. I hope he gifts you with lots of it! TFS & Happy Sunday Rita.
