Geeky boudoir! (firefly bedroom)

So I bought my first house a year ago and it is very magnolia. I've been thinking about how to add my personal touch to it. Sitting on the train on the way back from ComicCon this year it hit my all of a sudden. Firefly boudoir!

Here's the main wall. That's the whole damn 'verse. The eagle-eyed amongst you may notice that one of the planets is in slightly the wrong place. (Hint: it is Bellerophon.)
The grids are actually painted glow in the dark and are gorram awesome, but apparently either I or my camera is incapable of capturing this for you.

Needle felted ladies

Gosh, I have been very lazy on my blog, haven't I? I have done a few things but haven't been able to post them for Christmassy reasons.

Here's the lantern I made for mum's 60th birthday. Tinkerbell is flying against the glass, trying to escape from Hook.



I got some rice lights, drilled a hole in the base  and threaded them through to the top leaving the batteries in a recess underneath. (I'm proud of that, most of my crafts don't use a drill!)

I also made the parents a hamper for Christmas, of jams and chutneys and whatnot. This here is a little orchid gnome that I added.

 She doesn't move much, a mushroom grew on her.
Pretty hair although I think she needs a trim. She is mounted on a seed marker so you can anchor her in the soil of the orchid pot.
That's all for now - more to follow later!

Socks and pipe clearners

I sort of ended up buying 48 pairs of socks, for reasons. So I decided to make some sock plushes. Not too happy with the sheep so she has been donated to my neighbour's little girl who loves it.

And in case you thought I hadn't been crafting at all over the last 4 months, I *did* make 100 teddy bears from pipe cleaners. They are wearing little life jackets.


Here they all were, ready to be given away to the people of Ely

Wonderbunny

"I know who felted me and what I was felted to do."

I'm slowly adding to my superbunny range (Flash bunny was given away). Who should I do next?

Deadpool bunny

I was going to do Wonder Woman next but more topical, here's a Deadpool bunny for you.



And an embroidery for JourneyQuest. Which was funded this morning. Woo!

JourneyQuest Orc and Wizard




Okay, so you have already seen a picture of Rilk the sexy orc, but here his hair is a little better, and I worked on his mouth a bit more.
