the little butterflies are from my packaging
I've been making little pouches to use for money, ipod, lipstick or whatever, (Martina says her camera fits in perfectly the one I sent her).
I then did freehand embroidery on each of them, (remember these) and all I can say is how much fun I had! Each person got a little pouch and a small photo print from me.
So... because I've enjoying making these so much, (and also because I have become obsessed with pouch making,and embroidery in particular and you can only use so many pouches or give them as gifts!) I have decide that as of the 1st June there will be an Etsy shop!
I am super excited, as it means I can carry on playing - hooray! I'm thinking of making two sizes, the small ones and a bigger size to use as a make up bag. If anyone has any thoughts on this, regarding useful sizes or just a comment in general, leave a comment in this post and I'll pick one at random by the 1st June and do a giveaway of some handmade lovliness! (oh and did I say I'm also thinking of doing photo prints as well!).

Yaaayyy Jac!!! that's fantastic...they are all sooo gorgeous...I love mine and I need one for my i-pod, i-phone and make up!! So I will probably be your first customer on Etsy! It's great news that you are setting up a store - congrats:) Hurray for you!
Yay! The smaller one is perfect for carrying about in my purse. It has some odds and ends in it. A slightly larger one would be great for makeup.
Make sure to keep us posted on the Etsy shop so I can post about it when you open.
Oh my goodness Jac! They are SO beautiful! What a talent you have! An Etsy shop is definitely a good move. I am so excited for you! Yay!
Plus... the packaging is totally adorable!!
Yes, the packaging was so cute and I love my little pouch, and the photo was so lovely. I took pictures, I need to get them up on my blog to show them off!
Fun!
And...may I just add that I have kept the packaging - it was so lovely, I didn't want to throw it away!! Heehee! Plus, I also plan to take some good snaps and share them too! You better get to work Jac...think you are going to have a few pre-orders!!
I can't think of any suggestions, but those are so cute!
I love these little purses so much.
I have just been chosen by Rachel as one of her pay-it-forward people.
Yay, how fun.
Thanks for sharing the love.
I just wandered over and love the pouches. I'll have to stop back by regularly to snag one of those for myself. Love them.
Oh they are so cute, I love that each one is unique. I think your etsy shop will be wonderful and you definitely should have one. Best of luck with it all, I hope you will share everything here.
