Christmas E-patterns

I everyone, hope everything is going well with all of you. It's a cold Sunday here in Quebec and I just can't wait for the first snow...I get like a 4 years old, because it means that Christmas is just around the corner. I just love that time of year, crafting for Xmas is one of many joys. So I have a lot of projects started and decided to put together e-patterns on the finished ones. More patterns will be done in the weeks to come so check back often. That's all for now and take care.

another tim hortons box of coffee

Well I found another Tim Horton's box of coffee at work today, just couldn't wait to get home and work on it! I use this one to store my yarn.

tennis ball can craft organizer

So it's time for my Eco moment, LoL. I work in a tennis club, I do maintenance there. I throw out dozens of these cans in the recycling container everyday. So I thought it would be nice to bring some home, to organize all my buttons and scrapbook stuff. I didn't really like the bottom so I cut the can the height I wanted and glued a cover at the bottom of it with some plumbing glue. Of course it takes two covers for one can...but look how nice they turned out. To embellish, I cut some Jillibean soup scrapbook paper and I put it in the inside. Hope you like the idea. I'm pretty shore you could get some at your local tennis club to...If you ask nicely....LoL

Halloween E-patterns

Here are a couple of e-patterns I made, just in time for Halloween.

crafting with Tim Hortons box of coffee

A couple of weeks ago I found, at work, a ten cup box of coffee from Tim Horton's. Of course, I brought it home, I just new I had to do something with it. So I transformed it with Jillibean soup patterned papers and stamps, and now it as become my spools box. And with the handles,I can take it anywhere I want. I just love those boxes. Hope you like it.

big pattern box

So I made another pattern box, I have so much commercial patterns it's not even funny, I hardly use them, but I don't went to get rid of them either. I purchased a Dell studio one a couple months ago and use the box to store my patterns. I turned the box inside out and decorated it with some scrapbook paper and distress ink. It sits on a top shelve in my craft room. I'm very happy with the result.

pattern pocket organizer

So I decided to make some pockets to organize the patterns I design. I glued a small pocket insert on each one to put the material list in them. It's a quick reference when I want to make a project. I'm very happy with the results.



This is the box I designed to put them in.

desk trash box

I made myself a small trash can for my desk,when you craft a lot, it get messy pretty fast, so by having a trash can on hand it helps me to keep my area cleaner. This was a very fun project to make.

Embroidery floss box

So I started organising my craft room and decided to put my stuff in boxes and decorate them so it would be nicer to look at on the shelves. This one is my simplicity rotary cutter box that I turn inside out. I aged the box with Tim Holtz distress ink by Ranger and used some Jillibean soup patterned paper to decorate it. This is my first try at something like this, hope you like it. Till next time...
