Have you made anything that isn’t for sale?

Hi Carol, I’ve got a few things I’ve done that have never been for sale, these two are I think my favourites.

This is a bag that a friend of mine asked me to do for her niece who was going through a difficult period. The two butterflies represent her grandma and grandad she had lost at the time.

And this is an old pair of jeans of mine, they had a weird discolouration on the leg so I thought to paint some roses on it:

A little water colour that was destined as a gift for my Mum. Sadly it went missing from the office during renovation work so she just got a framed version of this photo!!

I made the Natures Walk blanket by Sandra Paul this summer to match my newly decorated guest room. We created a guest room late last year after my son moved out and moved things around upstairs but of course have not had any visitors yet :worried:

Every year for the last 10 years I have made a tree decoration for my grandson, they have always been super heroes or characters he’s been ‘into’ that year, this year has been Pokemon.
