Left over olives sat forlornly in the fridge until I made a cheat version of tapenade…
Stoned olives (about 30 of them)
Clove of garlic
Lemon juice
A teaspoon of capers
A sprig of dried thyme (or basil or parsley or …)
Salt and pepper
Chopped until pâté consistency
Another doorstop come draft excluder using a rolled towel as stuffing.
This time I appliquéd flower motifs using die cut shapes and heat and bond.
This was fun to make with pre scored boxes. No glue required just a bit of folding and 24 little gifts to gather. This set will make a great decoration too.
Seasonal production of liqueurs (limoncello and berry vodka) is underway and assorted bottles are being recycled.
To pretty them up I am adding Perlon which makes a durable varnish droplet or line on glass, paper or fabric.
Here I am creating snowflake shapes in white and silver and will add bling tags when I finally wrap them.
After watching another Sarah Homfray embroidery tutorial I practised her 10 flowers and made a small bunting strip to showcase them.
