upcycle

My son project is going well .he made over twenty and we still going strong . The hearts I thought would fly but sold two eventually but my son knew I liked this one and kept it for me for mothers day lol.  I do like it but a random heart just hanging looked a bit twee my friend who showed me pattern originally  made small flowers and heart to hers so I decided to have a go. I spent ages looking for a flower and settled on Lucy's triple layer flower  which I think adds nice touch . Then use her design for a heart to finish it off I really like it and how it evolved  now I need to find it a home. At moment it's in my hall but it's two pretty to be out of sight.

 The government in the wisdom want to to teach children business so each child in my son's school was given ten pounds my son had a idea to make mine craft weapons . Two weeks later  he had made no money . And then to make matters worse he  lost the ten pound start up money as its a proper loan  he has to pay it back things were looking desperate so on Friday I offered to help the above picture shows my efforts   over the weekend   to   give him some start up stock. I made granny hearts , phone cases ,badges ,bookmarks ,bracelets and bunny heads.

These hearts came from another blog  and hopefully will appeal  to those looking for mothers day gifts

The phone cases are desperate attempt to appeal to both boys and girls. Lol

The badges are rather cute I prefer the ducks to rabbit I think . They are ideal as only take ten mins to make . The bunny heads and really cute too .since the project runs till Easter  No harm  appealing to Easter trade lol. All in all a productive weekend  don't think I ever crocheted so hard in my life . I better have earned a good mother's day present now. Fingers crossed we start earning and it will be worthwhile
