[tinkerbell23]

Mum & dad having a clearout....about 10 of dads shirts!

Woohoo means more material for me :0)

Seen how to make shirts into little tops.....thought about ebaying the shirts as theyre good makes....but i think im going to have fun & cut them up!!

Snip snip! Xx

Could you not apply to ILA for funding? I would maybe look into it...

I just did NC fashion design and production... Really wish I had gone to art college and stuck it out though. I thought child care would be a more realistic career path! :|

[tinkerbell23]

Yeah i can, but some courses of that nature dont qualify...think theyre classed as leisure?

Soft furnishings one i fancied has disappeared! Doh. Lol. Found another at twice the price...think ILA might do half though. I really fancy hatmaking, however part of me thinks im crafty enough already to make a decent fascinator tbh!! Xx

Hatmaking does sound really interesting! I've made a few random hats for this and that. My two favourites are my mad hatter hat and a hat I made from neon straws as part of a recycled fashion project.

If you do it you can become the next Philip Treacy or Stephen Jones! I love their work!

[tinkerbell23]

I js think i could make fascinators NO problem so dunno of i need a course? So much on youtube these days too eh. Xxxx

[erin-x]

So true! You should just give it a bash! Get the glue gun out! :-) lol!!

[tinkerbell23]

All i need now is a lotto win and a spare room to set up a craft room....and buy a million things.

My ebay is watching over 100 things....roll on full time wages!

Seriously, a few slides, ribbon, little disc thing and feathers and crystals....voila! Fascinator! Id be better fine tunning either my baking or my sewing skills. Eh or asian cooking, eh or aromatherapy, eh or reflexology PMSL xxx

[erin-x]

Lol!! I never find the motivation to do crafty stuff any more! Unless halloween is coming up of course! Haha!
