My sister's Christmas presents! *EDIT*

11/25/2009

Please feel free to check out my Etsy shop:
Amused Creations (eco friendly accessories)



I have been making Xmas presents this year because money is tight. Anything I couldn't make I signed my name to whatever my husband bought other people (on the premises that I helped pick them out, wrap them and pack them for shipping so I did put effort into the gifts even if he paid! Haha).

My sister is so amazing. She's been through a rough couple of months and has started getting herself back on her feet. Right now she can't afford to buy anything for herself because she's saving up money to get her own apartment (she's renting a room from a stranger), so I've been working on accessories for her like crazy. I made her some jewelry.








But this... this is my pride and joy. My sister always wanted the Barbie clutch. This little Barbie clutch was her favorite, and at Halloweentime, I found costume vinyl in the right color gold and I'm sooo happy! I sent her a pic text of it all ready because I couldn't contain my excitement. She hasn't seen the other clutch I made her (a practice clutch in denim because it was a new freestyled pattern I made) or the jewelry, but she loves the clutch. Yay!

The Barbie purse.


The life size purse




EDIT: Oh wow, my Barbie clutch got Hot New Project on Craftster! Go to craftster.org and scroll for it in the Hot New Project section. I'm so excited! :)
