Tea for two.....

Greetings!
'Tea set' themed craft is one of my favorite crafts. Anything related to tea set is quite fascinating to me.....I recently came across this tea set paper craft from a website called  Kittie Caraccialo for ellenhutson.com. I fell in love with the project. Mine is not as good as the original, but still I am glad that I attempted it. I am not very good at paper crafts, but want to learn as many crafts as possible.


I wanted to make this for 'Valentine's day' unfortunately, I am two days late......but, it's always better to be late than 'NEVER'......this looks great on a kitchen or a dining room wall.......
There were no templates or step by step detailed instructions...but the author has mentioned how she assembled each and every piece. I just kept the photo as a guide and gave my own touch up ......I drew the tea pot, cup and saucers, vase and spoon patterns on a card stock and cut them out. Cutting paper is quite tricky. I don't have a paper cutter and I have to cut every thing by hand. I am not quite sure, if the over all finishing is good or no.... What's so ever, I enjoyed making this project.........
Now I have to finish two dolls that I am knitting currently. One is a gift for my childhood friend and other one is a custom order.........
Will be back soon with my next project........
Until then, you all have a great crafty week 😉........
Revu!

Valentine's day special

Greetings!

Since today is valentines day I just thought I will give a chance for Bobby to ask Polka Dot out. Bobby is wooing Polka Dot for quite a long time, I hope she will agree to be his valentine and they will have a nice evening together.


Besides this I just wanted to cherish my first valentine's day. My first valentine's day celebration happened in India. My boy friend who is my husband now took me to an Indian restaurant we had a nice South Indian meal and then we spent rest of the afternoon in a park surrounded by a lake. When it  was time to part and for my boy friend to take me back home, he removed a box which he had kept in a dicky of his two wheeler and inside the box was a choker with a beautiful heart pendent. His mother who is my mother-in-law now had given this necklace to him to gift me, that was nice of her. I had never imagined that my boy friend will gift me something that day :), it was a delightful surprise and my boyfriend made it even more special by keeping it a secret till the last minute.

At the end I am quite happy that through my dolls I can recall some of my wonderful memories over and over again.

Last but not the least 'Happy Valentine's Day' to everyone.

My next project is almost on the verge of finishing. I will soon be back with my next post.

Till then, as I always say,
You stay classy craft world!
